I think this is the second time I have ever written a review in my life. I used CV pal to write my CV and cover letter and cannot recommend them highly enough both for the quality of the CV and the value for money. I have used CV writing services as I was just no good at selling myself and the format, well, it looked so outdated.

I have used two CV writers in the past, both of which failed to impress me the way that CV pal did. The first CV writer was good at pitching me but did not really listen to my goals and aims and I was left being offered jobs in a sector I was trying to escape. The second CV writer was a complete disaster it cost substantially more, gave a CV that very disjointed and looked like very little effort had been made, I tried to get it amended and made suggestions but it ended up in so much work for little improvement I just gave up in the end as I could see it was going nowhere.

After the last experience I was very nervous of throwing my money around but looked up the reviews (thanks to all those that provided them) and decided it was worth a ring to discuss the CV in more detail. I spoke to Andrew and he was amazing, what customer service this guy had. He really put my mind at ease a great deal about the issues that I had had with previous CV writers, he seemed to understand where I wanted to take my CV and made loads of great suggestions that all made sense to me. He also confirmed that it would be him who wrote my CV and was always contactable, which sold it for me. The process was hassle free throughout, I provided the information and the CV reflected that he had read and processed it all.

The CV exceeded all expectations, it looked pretty and readable, it reflected our initial conversation and it really did sound like me which was so refreshing. I have shown it to a lot of my friends that have all been really impressed. More importantly (although it might not just be down to the CV) I have been offered lots of interviews and for jobs that excite me.

I have not mentioned until now the cover letter, which was included in the price. It’s a personal choice but I wouldn’t get it done again, it was, as it obviously had to be, very generic. I tend to write cover letters specifically for each job I apply for, although this is time consuming, it really does seem to provide a much better response. Even despite the cover letter not exciting me the same way the CV did, it still offers the best value for money I have come across.

I used CVpal in order to complete my CV and cover letter for a recent career change. Andrew's knowledge and experience was obvious from the outset and proved invaluable in setting me down the path to a new career.
The CVpal experience was fast, efficient and value for money. I will be and would recommend using CVpal in the future.

As a senior executive at an SME for the past 10 years, I knew I needed help writing my CV. Make no bones about it, CVPAL will save you time, money and help you get in front of the prospective employers you are targeting. It’s as simple as that. The team at CVPAL couldn’t help enough, I am 100% satisfied. It gives me great pleasure to recommend them to you. Nathan Fowler.

Nathan Fowler, New Bradwell

My CV was several years out of date and I was considering a career change within the same industry. I rang CVPAL (Andrew) and explained my position to which he also had questions for me. That in itself was re-assuring because it was clear that he wanted to produce a perfect CV for me. I sent my CV and a few job descriptions of the roles I was looking for and he did not disappoint. The customer service alone is beyond exceptional, I got it earlier than promised considering my deadline was sort notice and the CV is BRILLIANT. CV pal is brilliant and I without doubt recommend it anyone.

Miles, Maidstone

My CV was written from scratch.

Thanks to this service, I was able to have a CV created that was vital in getting myself know to recruiters and also to secure interviews with prospective employers in new sectors. Without this service, which was courteous, timely and personalised, I don’t think I would have seen the same results.

Thoroughly recommended.
