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.

My CV was several years out of date and I was considering a career change within the same industry.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.

I had my personal cover letter created by CVPAL which I am delighted with.
The communication service is swift and exceptional. I would recommend this company to friends and family.

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!
