Leading CV Writers

We periodically like to take a look at our competition and see what they are offering and their pricing to make sure we’re competitive.

Today I discovered that it’s quite amazing how many CV writers are “the UK’s number 1 professional CV Writers” or “the leading CV writers for professional CVs”. I’d love to know how they measure this!

We don’t profess to be the number 1 or the best CV writer in the world because that is far too subjective to be a valid statement. It’s a bit like writing on your CV that you are the “best Man Manager in England” or “the most professional hairdresser in Wales”.

We write good CVs – it’s as simple as that. If you’re not getting interviews it has to be your CV and we can rewrite your CV to give you a much better chance of getting an interview.

Our initial assessment is completely free and without any obligation. Email us your CV and we email back your assessment. We won’t call you or chase you for a response. You can call us for clarification on any points we make about your CV, or about our process to make sure you’re happy to proceed.

Don’t forget – if you don’t like the new CV we will give you your money back. Straight away.

Tailoring a CV

We often get asked about tailoring CVs for specific applications and whether this is a good idea?

Absolutely.

When you reply to a job advert you should always tweak your CV to highlight the skills that are being looked for. This can mean adding in new skills to your CV that you previously left out for space considerations (or because you didn’t feel they were directly relevant), or it can mean changing the sequence of your Key Skills to appeal more to the reader.

The CVs that we write are specifically written to be easily tailored to suit different job applications. We do this by creating a unique profile and key skills section based on your experience and the type of job you are looking for, that you can then amend as needed.

We’ll also talk you through the reasoning behind all of this so that you understand how to make these changes yourself and create a CV that is targeted at a specific application.
