I was out of work for 6 months and while my old CV was good it had too much detail and lacked clarity. After contacting CVpal they revampted my CV with which I have secured a job which is not just another job but a great career opportunity.

Andrew was very positive with me from the start taking time to find out exactly what I type of career and job I was looking for and focused my CV towards that. In a short space of time I've been contacted by several companies which gave me a choice of options regarding which opportunity to pursue, it was great to have a choice.

If you have any doubts at all like I had initially, then please contact CVpal just for a chat- you will not be disappointed - after all what have you got to lose?

I was a little dubious about using CV Writing Services to begin with, but after 3 months of not receiving any interest from numerous online applications (and being pretty sure it was not to do with a lack of skills or experience) I decided to give it a try. After checking a few companies out and sending off for some free CV reviews, CVpal's initial feedback was the most detailed and explained exactly where I had gone wrong. I then spoke to them on the phone and had a very valuable and not too sales-pitchy conversation, which made me feel comfortable handing over the service fee.

In less than a week I received the initial draft and was most impressed! It was beautifully presented, included all the relevant information and added key words that I can see now were really important. If I was to be really picky (with my ex-IT Teacher and new IT Trainer hat on) the only issue I had with my CV was that it was manually formatted throughout, rather than using Styles, but this is certainly something I could overlook! After going back and forth a couple of times to make some minor adjustments I felt it was time to start sending it out and seeing how well my new CV worked.

I had stopped applying for jobs for a period of 2 weeks while I was hunting for CV Writing Services and waiting for CVpal to redo mine, so on the following Monday I sent out 5 new applications. By the next day I had had 4 responses of which I turned down 1, 1 never followed up and 2 went to the telephone interview stage. One of these then went to final face-to-face interview and within 2 weeks of sending out my new CV I was finally offered a new job (which I start in the next week or so and am really looking forward to!).

There is clearly a knack to writing CVs as recruiters seem to be looking for very specific information presented in a very specific way, and the staff at CVpal clearly know what they are doing. Although it may seem a lot of money to begin with, on reflection it was definitely a worthwhile investment and I would have no hesitation in recommending CVpal's services ( I will most probably use them again in a few years when my CV needs an update!) If in doubt, give their free CV Review service a try and give them a call - I'm sure you won't regret it!

I used a CV writing company to do my CV in 2013. It was awful and very badly done. I would not have secured a job using it. I contacted CVpal who were so helpful without being pushy. The CV they have done is very professional and well written. They also did an application letter for me which is excellent. I am very happy with their service and would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them.

Sue,

I am currently military and leaving the Army in the near future, I thought it would be a good idea to have my CV professionally written. Reason being it can be difficult for military personnel to express and relate their experiences and skills to the world outside of the Army. Instantly Andrew was very helpful and had previous experience of writing military to civilian CVs. He put together a very professional and polished CV for me within a week. I have since had a good amount of interest and positive feedback on the CV and I would definitely recommend CV pal and Andrew to any of my friends military or civilian.

Once again Andrew I cannot thank you enough for your excellent CV and cover letter writing service. My request to update my CV was carried out promptly and professionally as always. After loading my CV onto the websites you suggested, I immediately began to receive interest from prospective employers. I am delighted to say that I have secured the job of my dreams within a few weeks of searching !
Well Done Andrew, a fantastic service as usual and I would certainly not hesitate to recommend your services.

Linda, Tring
