After trying to get a CV that promoted my skills, and was accurate and comprehensive I finally decided to try one last time with CV Pal. To say I had been disappointed in money wasted with other so called professional CV writers is putting it mildly. On two occasions I was not convinced that my CV was being written by English native speakers, and would receive auto type responses. At one point I even asked if I was talking to a robot! As I paid a significant amount for a CV and covering letter I did not expect to have to rewrite it myself. Andrew and team however took my old CV and turned it into a document that was worthy of submission. The clarity and succinctness was such a contrast to the two other companies. Response time was great, I had a couple of small changes I wanted to make, and that was that. It was easy in the end. I then passed the CV through a couple of review sites. There was little or no change required. I can't recommend this company highly enough. Don't make the same costly mistakes!!

Having used CVpal to do me a CV following being made redundant I have recently asked them to update it. Once again I was amazed at the outcome. They have taken a dull and mundane job description and turned it into a a vibrant and interesting one with excellent use of the English language. I am positive this will have the desired effect. Once again many thanks to Tara and Andrew for a fantastic job.

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 I have used CV writing services as I was just no good at selling myself and the format, well, it looked so outdated.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.

Andrew created a excellent CV for me, my CV was written and was full on military jargon and needed to be written in a civilian manner, I met Andrew and we talked through the CV and what I required. After discussion he sent me a draft which was amended after consultation. The CV delivered is dynamic and well crafted. I also received a cover letter and LinkedIn profile. I would recommend this service to all, and will be using Andrew again if I need an update.
