An industry resume guide on ResumeAdapter is a long-form playbook anchored on a single US labor-market transition. Each guide ships with four deliverables: primary-sourced macro data, an ATS translation table for the receiving sector, a terminology crosswalk (GS-grades to corporate titles, federal acronyms to private-sector terms), and a 30-day tactical plan.
We publish one guide per active transition. Sector-specific transitions whose hook is a single employer event or an ATS rather than the industry label live under /proof. The shared hook (clearance, ATS vendor, severance window) is more useful than the sector label.
