I went through the whole resume writing & interview process a little while back. Don't underestimate how useful a good recruiter might be. The guy I worked with has turned out to be a good friend, but the advice he gave was incredible. I imagine the way this guy works is probably not typical of most recruiters, it may take you a while to find one that will be as useful. This guy talked with me for ages, got to know my background, what I was looking for, and generally got to know me very well. He then vetted my resume and suggest changes for general use or changes to tailor it for a specific job. He then coached me with interview technique, conduct practice interviews and then gave de-briefs following interviews.
I learned a heck of a lot which in turn helped me in my present job when I occasionally have had to interview candidates.
Finding a good recruiter like this may not be easy, but I am sure it will be well worth it.
