Scribe template

Nadia Ferreira, Copywriter

Nadia Ferreira is a copywriter five years in, from a junior desk at a Portland agency to the in-house voice of a direct-to-consumer kitchenware label, applying for a lead copywriter role. A copywriter is hired on the lines she wrote and what they did, so this resume keeps every role to two or three bullets that each carry a number, and gives her published work a section of its own.

Why this resume works

  • The skills are one sentence of six plain names, brand voice guides first and the tools last, which is how a writer signals that the words matter more than the software.
  • The current role is three bullets and three numbers: a 40-product voice guide with 11 launches, email revenue up 34% behind a 52% open rate, and 60 headline tests whose winners are live.
  • The agency years are split into two roles under one employer, so the promotion from junior to copywriter is visible without a word about it.
  • The degree carries a line on the thesis, plain-English consumer contracts, and two years as a magazine copy editor, which is the writing record a hiring editor looks for.
  • Awards and a Publications section the writer added each hold two dated items, so the page ends on work a reader can look up.
