Disclaimer:
I understand that I am posting a resume/job related topic on a gaming forum, but like other people, I tend to believe in the 1% users that actually know what they are talking about when it comes to this subject.

I currently want to apply for a job, here in Quebec, for a position where the main language used will be french. I am 90%+ bilingual when it comes to speaking but I am more like 70% bilingual for the writing part.

The company's main office is located in Chicago and eveyone working in recrutment are posted as English native.

So in order for them to even consider my resume, I would like to post a english version and a french version.
This said, I have a nice resume with great form that I would like to re-use for the english one, but I am not sure 100% about the wording that must be used in english culture.

So does anyone in here know where I should go or ask for this kind of job ? It can be either online or at a company working in Quebec.

I am sorry, as the edit button is not working I would like to add:

Mostly looking for help with the FORM or the resume.

I am totally open in trading 100 fgs vs some small translations and an appropriate form for the document.

Regards.

You must undertstand, resume form, length and style changes from job to job. Like you won't hand a 10 page resume in to work at a supermarket.

That being said, many financial firms will straight-up refuse any resume over 1 page. If you want assistance with this, post what is needed to help or understand what is needed

Thank you for input.

What I mainly look for in a short bullet points:

- I need someone knowing "form" of english (usa) resume
- I need some translation like ex: "Diplôme d'études professionelles" or it's equivalent in the usa.
- It can be either a user, or a internet website or a company.
