James did a great job
I opted for the extra LinkedIn profile this time. You will not be disappointed with the great advice, well worth it!
I felt the writer captured me perfectly and fingers crossed I will find a new job
I felt the writer captured me perfectly and fingers crossed I will find a new job
Updated to 5 stars after further excellent work by Claire!
I was thoroughly impressed by the CV and LinkedIn profile, and I eagerly anticipated an equally outstanding cover letter. While the cover letter was good, I felt there was considerable room for improvement.
Claire's extensive experience, support, and guidance in enhancing my LinkedIn profile were truly remarkable. The results were nothing short of excellent and impressive.
Claire crafted an outstanding CV for me—I was absolutely speechless at the exceptional quality of the resume. I am immensely grateful for her sincere efforts in creating a resume that exceeded all my expectations. Thank you so much, Claire!
The 30-minute Premium Phone Call I had with Claire before she worked on my CV was simply superb. I highly recommend this service to all prospective clients, as it greatly enhances the CV writer's ability to deliver a truly high-quality resume.
I've used CV Centre for many years and once again they delivered me a perfect CV within a record breaking fast turnaround time. Communication, understanding and efficiency were excellent. Highly Recommended!!!
I was never sure that my own covering letter was getting me any traction, I was pleased with the template I received from Claire as it gave me a fresher perspective on whether I should use one or not.
I have used it once so far, I'm not able to feedback if it is helping me or not. But I think it is better than my own covering letter
I did not really know what to expect with this, following the format of reviewing the draft(s) before sign off. I was sent the final version, which I used to update my profile.
Very happy with the output
Claire spent a few days crafting my CV draft, I was in no rush , the first draft was sent to me for review which conatined notes for clarification and suggestions. This was followed by the CV itself which looked good , so I signed it off.
The early feedback from a recruiter was that it looked really good which made me very pleased to have chosen the service
I had a call with Claire, who put me at ease and explained the who process. We discussed my goals and future goals as well as my experiences to date.
The conversation was easy going and we soon reached an agreement on what I needed from the service
Very quick responses to questions and amendments. Polite and very helpful in every way. Would of communications via email rather than logging into the portal every time. Would definitely use again though and I highly recommend.
I am happy with the service. The team was very attentive and quick to reply to my questions. I appreciate their superior level of organization as well. I’ve been a client since 2016, and James is always very professional and customer-focused.
I had very important job application and needed assistance to stand out of the crowd.
No negatives to report at all. An extremely intuitive and convenient service throughout. Frequent opportunities to review and revise the draft with valued input from the experienced writer. Extremely happy at the turnaround time and finished document that was modelled to my current requirements in a way that I couldn't have articulated. I would highly recommend as excellent value for money.
Felt like the CV was a mass regurgitation of what a basic AI would look to write. Lots of big words without actually saying much which was really disappointing as the phone conversation I had with the agent prior to the CV creation was really good. CV felt like it could be for any number of people in management and not really what I expected especially after previously great results.
The CV writer does not understand what is required. My interaction with the representative was promising. The actual writer is not doing a good job and has wasted my time, sending me the same draft under a version 2 draft. I would now like my £249 refund since I am not getting any response from the representative either.
They crafted a compelling letter, capturing my skills perfectly. Highly recommended!
James wrote an exceptional CV and personal statement. We are really pleased and it was well worth the money.
Honest feedback not meant to sell at all costs but to make you understand what to do
This is the second time I have used this service and the professionalism and attention to detail is fantastic. Response time and the quality of the written response is phenomenal. My conversation with James highlighted that my old CV wasn't getting me to the first shortlist. My new CV written by James and Jennifer got me shortlisted on its first outing!!
The consultant managed to distill my LinkedIn profile into a much more cohesive and targeted CV. My strengths have been highlighted far better than I would;d have been able to express them. The interaction was smooth and flawless with very little effort on my side other than editing and uploading. I highly recommend the CV Centre
Went to the link. It didn't work. Just kept telling me to come back later.
Very quick and efficient service provided
James did an impressive job with my CV and highlighting my professional skills in my cover letter. I did not realise that when I approved an order I could not message him back to thank him for his support.
Extremely pleased with the service from the writer. Thank you so much.
Charlotte provided constructive feedback on my CV in a very concise and professional manner. I felt I got sufficient information from the call to revise my CV myself and politely opted out of the CV writing offers.
The CV upload & review call arrangement process was pretty easy and straight forward, including a reminder note the day prior to the call. All in, happy with the service! Thanks!
James created me a great CV, he took my original cv I had written and turned it into a glowing, outstanding and very professional sounding one. Highly recommend cvcentre
Thank you, Jennifer you did so well!
Very pleased with the service. I got exactly what I paid for! The process was quick and simple, and communication exceptional.
If you have any anxieties about moving forward, look no further. A pure delight to be involved with from start to finish. Would highly recommend.
Claire was excellent, gave advice specific to me and gave insightful helpful advice.
Great service and excellent work from my writer James for my Next Step package bundle.
I received all of the work within a couple days with no issues. Highly recommend there services.

Claire was truly amazing and professional to work with. I am well impressed by her extensive knowledge and experience . She delivered an impressive CV and cover letter. Thank you very much Claire
My writer Claire was absolutely amazing- provided me with a great support, extensive knowledge and tremendous language skills. I am very grateful to Claire for her hard work on my CV, which was not an easy and straightforward task.Thanks a million Claire for going above and beyond.
The call with my writer Claire was absolutely amazing. It was crucial for both of us to get to know each other to fully understand our expectations.It was a great start of a working relationship. I definitely recommend including a phone call as part of your bundle.
My headline sums it up well! Claire was fantastic to work with.
The cover letter has been setup to be easily adapted and I learnt a lot from Claire too!
Thanks to Claire, I now have an incredible profile!
The CV was quick, professional and far better than what I could produce alone! Excellent work from Claire.
Clear, professional and a very clean and easy to read CV
Job well done! The turn around was very fast and notes were applied perfectly
Very professional way of working . Explanation was provided what i need to have on my CV in order to catch attention o relevant people, the layout and wording did a fantastic job.
This is the second time I have updated my CV with CV centre. The last time was 8 years ago and I got the first job I applied for after struggling to even get interviews. My Cv this time is outstanding, I could never write something like this myself. It's 100% worth spending the money.
My writer James incorporated everything I had asked for and produced the first draft very quickly, which I accepted as there was nothing left out and no changes I wanted made. The CV is very well presented, easy to read and over all more professional than one I could have produced myself. I am very happy with the experience and the result is better than expected. I'm feeling a lot more optimistic going forward in my job search.
I'm fully satisfied with the CV they provided for me. Their responses are always professional within a short time.
Very informative, Denise did a great job.
I used this service to make my current cv even better. Instead it looked the same and the structure was poor and the writing was overpopulated. I wanted a clear, concise and easy to understand cv but James didn’t deliver to my expectation. I am waiting for a full refund as per their 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Second time round using Cvcentre and again without fail received the best updated CV.
A finished, quality product that indeniably meets expectations.
An excellent introduction to the subject, and the establishment of a climate of trust enabling productive discussions.
Super happy with how my career has been laid out in a professional and well worded manner, 100% better than my own cv that i have had for years. Quck turnaround and well worth the fee you are paying, thanks so much !!
Having a conversation with James was the most valuable part of the process. Not only he could capture all the essentials, but also helped me reflect more on my strengths. In addition he is a true gentleman and made the conversation enjoyable. Totally recommend it!
I am thoroughly impressed with the exceptional services provided. Despite initially paying for the wrong level, I was promptly upgraded to the correct level for free. The timeliness of responses is truly invaluable, reflecting their commitment to customer satisfaction. I can confidently say that I have no regrets whatsoever. Special thanks to James, my writer, he was so patient and paid attention to every detail.
Really liked the no nonsense approach and honesty. Denise was friendly and extremely helpful. An offer to send a template as well as notes on my CV and how it should be altered was extremely useful also. I chose to use the companies services based on this free cv review call with the relevant info being sent to me almost immediately after the call.
Excellent service and interaction
Excellent customer service and interaction
Easy To Navigate With Clear Guidance From The Career Guidance Team! Definitely Recommend!
Simple and easy to navigate options for your LinkedIn Banner needs!
I'd like to thank James who did an amazing job at creating a CV for me that met all of my criteria to the best standard. He was very professional and the process was efficient. I would definitely use this service again.
The whole service is fantastic, help with c.v and cover letter etc... was great, they understood which role I was applying job for. Replied back to all my questions. Great
James was great, really helpful with my cv providing a quality and great insight to what my cv would be. final statement came out great.
Fast, reliable and professional service.
The CV writer was very professional and helped design an exciting new CV for me
I received some very helpful insights. Definitely a useful call.
I had a detailed review of my cv in session i booked for free with the cv center uk expert. I appreciate this service. Thank you
very good cv writing most of the time,
I do not usually write reviews, but I believe it is worth the time and effort when you receive service excellence. Great service and communication
A template that provides a clear sense of direction! Must use!
Amazing sense of direction for LinkedIn profile
Contribution for the unemployed
Excellent quality of work.
Cheap, Easy and no hassle. Was looked after really well.
Have been given positive feedback from everyone that has read through my CV
The communication done via the phone was effective and friendly. It put me at ease and I felt heard.
This was exactly what I needed- idiots guide to how to set up my profile and use LinkedIn. Highly recommend for anyone not sure where to start.
Very pleased with how my information was summarised. Will be easy to adapt this for whatever role I wish to apply for, and for approaching potential employers.
Was able to get a call booked in quickly, helpful friendly information, very professional .
Needed to update CV on changing to a sole trader. Very easy to use service, very responsive, and a great outcome
I was quite satisfied with the call with Katy, the advice given is helpful, and, you can get a better offer for the services. I recommend.
May was very professional and quickly knew what I required, good discussions and amendments made swiftly. New drafts submitted after every amendment for me to check.
Would highly recommend the CV Centre.
I was happy with the work overall, it was quick (about 24 hours) and I was very satisfied with the cover letter. However, when I asked for the dates to be revised I didn't like that the CV writer pushed back on including months on my CV (only the year), to a recruiter it could look like there are gaps in my CV, but apparently adding the months is including information employers didn't ask for. Never heard that before.
I will have to edit that myself as he didn't seem willing to do it. That is the only thing stopping me from giving five stars.
Poorest service. None of the work was completed. The first draft for the cover letter was a copy and paste of my cv, the second a copy and paste of the JD and the third a copy and paste of thoughts I shared. I had to write the cover letter myself in the end so I wouldn't miss the deadline. And when I asked for a refund, I was told I had been sent all the drafts and the work was completed. No refund, and now no communication.
Really pleased with the covering letter that was produced for me.
I really couldn’t fault Claire, she was friendly & efficient throughout and produced an amazing professional tailored CV by listening carefully to the information I provided. Thank you so much!
I received excellent service pertaining to my CV review. Thank you Denise for the constructive information and for pointing me in the right direction. I really appreciate your help and kindness.
I do not usually write reviews, BUT when you receive service excellence and an informed discussion with all questions answered to your satisfaction, then it is worth the time and trouble to commend Denise
I have a natural aversion to any form of social media. Zach helped me turn a blank page into a relevant and useful summary for my Linked In network.
Zach transformed my CV from a 'transactional' list of work to a resume of attributes and capabilities. This has made my CV far more impactful.
Zach built a rapport and listened carefully to my responses and replayed back to ensure understanding, and was able to pinpoint the key criteria to highlight in the CV.
I had never known what to write on a cover letter. The advice from Zach gave me everything I need to know how to tailor a cover letter for the job spec.
Wendy has been very patient and provided me with the best guidance and advise. My CV has changed shape with a perfect content, layout and version edits as per my liking and request. With her help I was able to send out 10 applications from which received 3 interviews from which received 2 job offers, all within 1 month. The quality is exceptional and fast turn around times, and I would recommend Wendy and CV Centre to anyone!
Clear, concise information from Denise who had taken the time to review my CV prior to the call. She offered some useful tips and quick wins.
Good chat
The call was friendly and not sales driven, and we covered a good number of points in a short time.
I had not updated my CV for a number of years and Claire did an excellent job interviewing me first and then articulating in a clear way everything we had discussed and highlighting the most relevant aspects of my experience into a new updated CV / resume.
Claire's suggestions were very useful and practical changes to make my LinkedIn profile stronger and more aligned with the resume / CV that she also helped me articulate.
I felt Claire really took the time to understand who I was as an individual and what I was looking for in my next role during our interview. When I read the first draft of what she wrote for my resume / CV, I felt I had been seen. I think she did a great job.
James done a great jobs with key skills and profile write up for me.
James wrote the cover letter to be used with broad use, in the industry I searching. Again Excellent.
James was very quick and efficient. Very responsive to questions Excellent.
I've not been happy with the format of my CV for some time. I spoke to Denise and we discussed the corrections, not major, but small things that make a difference. I'm in the early stages of it being rewritten so time will tell if its good, but I feel that it will be.
I had the pleasure of having my CV reviewed by Denise. She was very professional and diligent and provided me with a first-class service
I really liked the person who was reviewing my CV, she was very approachable and I felt that she had experience which gave me confidence in her comments
Mia, the CV Representative, was great, she has excellent customer service, was really attentive to what I wanted to achieve with my CV and how to handle an interview.
I brought a custom package and very happy I used their service. I have been out of the job market for a very long time and feel much more at ease with all the items I purchased. They were very understanding and responsive to my concerns. I cannot recommend enough!
I was very impressed with the quality of her writing and very happy with the cover letter. It was exactly what I was hoping for. She guided me every step of the way and was very accommodating to my specific needs. Great experience!
I had an great experience with CV Center and am so pleased with the service I received. Their customer service was outstanding, and the product was exactly what I was looking for.
I used this service to make my CV more attractive to potential employers.
Excellent and helpful phone call with Denise! Very detailed! Glad I came across this amazing service! highly recommend. thank you so much for your help, I appreciate it.
Denise was helpful, polite and to the point. She gave great honest feedback and highlighted areas for improvement on my CV.
Expect a personal professional expert who is willing to help your every need and transform your CV & Cover Letter.
Professional, tentative, understanding all around great level of service.
The guys at James Innes Group know exactly what they are doing, well recommend.
First class effort and i am delighted with outcome. Attention to detail and everything i asked for was complete. Thanks again Blake brilliant appreciated
Attention to detail good conversation and all information was taken on board and i was allocated a top writer
The most important thing was initial contact and prompt response from phone meeting and chat to being allocated a writer with great experience who constructed the new cv very well and his attention to detail was second to none fantastic from Blake a gentleman and asked as i please. First class effort and i would highly recommend to future people.
The service was excellent, top score!
I have been working with CV Centre several times. Thank you Claire, for your excellent communication and great quality of work
My cv was reviewed in detail and the points have been clearly communicated
Jennifer, you articulated my resume in a way I could not have done. Love it. Thank you
You articulated my resume in a way I could not have done. Love it. Thank you
Jennifer, you are owesome. Thank you for the incredible work you did for me .
Thank you for listening to me with compassion and articulating my needs better than I could.
I liked that the representative was very professional and I could sense her genuine care and willingness to assist me in putting my CV in order.
I never usually write reviews for services but I'm blow out of the water with what I received here. Got exactly the CV I was looking for thanks to James, it looked like extremely professional and complete and with in a few days after updating my CV on job seeking websites I had the job!
Sandra did an amazing job of writing my CV. It now has all the necessary information and is really well-presented and easy to read. Thank you!
Great I got the job
I didn't have a clue what my profile should look like, but Sandra knew perfectly and I was really happy with the results.
Sandra took her time to really get to know me and I felt that by the end she exactly what I wanted/needed from my CV/cover letter/LinkedIn profile.
It took very few drafts to complete the letter. Sandra knew when to change things according to my comments and when not to. It was obvious she knew what she was doing, and this was very reassuring.
Shamir know his job. Thank you.
The writter done a perfect job with my CV.
Shamir had a perfect job, I recommend her.
After a few drafts the cover letter was perfect! Sandra knew exactly when to act upon or override my comments! It was obvious that she knew what she was doing and I knew I could completely trust her.
My 30 minute phone call actually went on for much longer, and I felt that Sandra knew me and what I needed by the end of it.
A great CV review that knows what happened in my CV in the profile section, suggested what need to add, how to get attractive for my CV.
Very clear and informative notes and suggestions
Naomi had a great understanding of what I was looking for. Did a great job. Thanks
As I have just relocated to the UK need a great cover letter to apply for opportunities. Very happy with the result.
I got what i expect, thank you
To adjust my CV
I had a free CV review call with Denise who gave me honest feedback on my CV and some good suggestions to update it.
I am glad I signed up for the review call.
Denise was clear and concise. It was informative and I had a good understanding of the feedback.
Thanks.
Kathlyn assisted me in rewriting my CV and giving it shape and form that I could never have done on my own.
Denise gave me a very good critique of my CV including biggest areas for improvement, which was really helpful. I benefited from the advice and also from Denise's assessment of my potential opportunities. Denise was very supportive. Thank you so much Denise!
Zeth worked on my CV extremely well, we discussed few great points over the phone and via the chat service. I am totally satisfied with his great work and finally feel the confidence is sending my CV/Cover letter for employment.
Kathlyn was great, she created top quality CV and responded to all my requests for changes. Highly recommended.
The work was not up to my expectations. Writer was not expert in writing Accounts and Finance CVs . Whatever I told was coped and pasted in my CV with zero value addition.
My writer/editor cooperated with me to make sure the letter of application reflects who I am and is more than appropriate for the role I apply for.
I can only compliment his patience.
The lifting of my LinkedIn profile highlighted the skills that are crucial in the positions I chose to apply for.
I am very happy with the result.
My editor made sure we worked together, taking into consideration my needs and suggestions. He made sure the CV is appropriate to my needs.
I can highly recommend his services.
Denise was very helpful and provided me with detailed advice on how to improve my CV.
I really appreciated the work that was done for me. They were very responsive to me and my needs and adapted to what I asked with little issue. It was well worth the fee.
Immediate response ,highly professional
Denise was great and really helpful on directing me on how to improve my resume.
My call with Denise was a lovely way to start a Wednesday morning :) She was friendly and professional and gave very useful feedback and advice on my CV!
I would highly recommend
I used the Cv centre services for 3th time now and they always did a great work, but this time I couldn’t be happier, James was amazing, he did so quick everything. My cv is just as I wanted, so is my cover letter. Thank you very much James 🙏

Best CV review, valuable contributions 💯
I wanted to get an idea of my cv, nice service
Really happy with my cv, helped with my application for my masters course. Will use again.
I would really want to take a moment to appreciate how warm, welcoming, and super talented Ms.Denise is. We were speaking timezones apart, yet that feeling of closeness and utmost importance was given to me. Really impressed that she has gone through my resume and coverletter and walked me through the entire thing providing constructive feedback which I definitely would imbibe in my resume. Ms Denise, keep doing the wonderful job you are doing and wishing you and the company great and continued success!!
I wanted to speak to someone to get an idea how good or bad my cv is.
Great
A clear understanding of the requirements regarding an excellent CV. The only negative aspect was the quotation which, although stated as discounted, was still more expensive than going directly via the website.
If you are thinking about using this service, don't hesitate. The standard of the senior manager's cv, personal statement and cover letter I received was exceptional. I needed the services in a hurry to make a deadline for the role of my dreams and Claire delivered, going out of her way to make sure I had everything I needed on time. Nothing was too much trouble, Claire was delightful to work with and shared her insight and knowledge into how to make my cv shine. I have no doubt that Claire's work helped me not only get shortlisted for the role...but to get the job! Forever thankful. Highly recommended.
Professional
I received very satisfactory support from Paul on my Linkedin profile page optimization. Very enlightening to understand the proper approach to LinkedIn profile branding.
Very happy with service. Jeff was thorough, gave lots of his time and very helpful.
This service is spot on.
This is money well spent and got me the job I was hoping for.
Totally professional and worked a treat. Thank you.
Very unhappy with the service that was provided as the writer did not ask much relevant questions to my CV
The lady that helped write my CV was excellent
I got exactly what I needed and with as many edits as was required to get the documents how I wanted them. Now lets see if there work ... More later!
I chatted with Denise who was very helpful in all regards.
I liked her honest advice and soft spoken skills. I am using the cv for job search.
Naomi created me a brilliant personal statement. She was great at communicating with me about what I wanted and asked for extra details that really helped the finished product. She also really brought in the aspects of the job specification into the statement and I really felt like she had spent alot of time looking at my CV etc. This was not just a generic statement. Would highly recommend and I would definitley use this service again! 5*
I had a sort of atypical case (pivoting from one industry toward another), but Ian took on the challenge and ran with it. The resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile I received were extremely professional and beautifully structured. Ian was thorough in making sure he understood my experience and what exactly I was looking for, and he was quick to make any edits or answer any of my questions.
I'm super happy with the service I received and would absolutely recommend!
The best. Got me a job the first time I used it. Perfect.
I am genuinely disappointed in the service. I decided to pay for it thinking i would be able to get a great cv that didn't sound like waffle or your typical clichés. Well that's exactly what I got! I even provided feedback to that effect giving specific examples of what part really didn't sound like me... proven track record in supporting notable customer objectives? That I love market research.... this is clearly a copy and paste job rather than taking the time to get to know the person it is being written about
some of the parts of the cv were even labelled wrong... competencies rather than skills...
in the work section achievements rather than main responsibilities. I am overall really disappointed and ended up re writing it myself! I am clearly a student and paying that amount is a lot of money and really think I have wasted my money and time.
I loved the frequency of communication via the secure chat channel and the rapidness of response. I liked that my choice of template was not taken as is, and Jennifer consulted me on the defectiveness and uses of a hybrid template. Overall, very happy with the Final CV :)
James was very reassuring, and even before I saw the draft of my CV, I felt I was in good hands. James is very good at understanding where the client is coming from , by articulating it back.
James and colleagues have helped to give a fresh and updated look to my CV that I couldn't have come up with myself. Happy with the result.
Great communication, fantastic service better then expected. Landed me a job almost instantly.
Used them the second time and was outstanding service again.
Jeff is helpful, informative, very knowledgeable and takes time to understand your requirements and works with you on feedback in a timely, professional and helpful manner. Thank you Jeff
So many helpful hints and tips to stand out
Very professional and helpful
From start to finish a brilliant service, professional and timely. Thank you
Claire is very professional and she takes care about every tiny detail. I strongly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a perfect CV
Sandra is simply amazing. She is highly experienced and will surpass your expectations. I cannot thank her and CV centre enough for a job well done.
Thank you.

I had a lovely conversation this morning with Denise about improvements I could make with my CV. The advice she gave was clear and she explained why it would make a difference. Definitely worth doing if you need someone to review your CV for free.
I once again for the 4th or 5th time come back to CV Centre to update and refresh my CV to add in my new positions, and as always I am left speechless with the quality of work, speed in which it is done and the very polite and responsive customer care.
I highly recommend the CV Centre, they suprise me everytime I get an update on my CV.
Jeff easily understood my requirements and his communication was exceptional!
He exceeded my expectations by providing a swift, thorough service.
I would highly recommend using the CV centre.
I think having a CV writer write a cover letter is very difficult as cover letters are supposed to be very tailored to the requirements of each particular role. My main issue, however, was that I have consistently read and been told (by advice sites and career advisors or experts in the industry), that I should also be sure to follow the STAR technique. Basically, to back up my claims of 'being something' or 'being able to do something,' with an example of how I have done this in the past (or something similar that could be transferred).
The cover letter was absent from this and the focus was on explaining what I can do and not how/why I feel in a position to make this statement. I tried to express my concern by pointing to a few examples, but, the writer simply changed the claims that I was making, but still did not give examples to back them up, and explained that this (the style of the cover letter) was a proven strategy and add to it myself to further tailor it for each job.
I fully expected that I would need to change or add to it for each role. But, the way that these examples of 'strengths' were written and presented just felt very abstract. As an example, writing "Overhauling training and working practices; improving the transparency of key information to improve decision making" is fine, but, what is missing is an example of when and how I have previously done this and how this relates to improving the transparency of key information....".
The other thing I was a little confused about was this sentence, "Additionally, my talents in communication, report writing and relationship building will enable me to seamlessly integrate with your team and provide exceptional service to ensure an outstanding student experience." The roles I am applying for have nothing to do with the student experience so this is really irrelevant. As I said in my feedback on the CV, if I am told to expect the work in approx 2-3 business days, then please take the time to check these small details rather than delivering it within 24 hours but with these kinds of problems which makes one feel that it has been done in a bit of a rush.
I am sure if I had kept contacting the CV writer about each of these issues big and small they would have all been resolved. But, as I am working, studying, and writing cover letters on a daily basis, I was tired of also giving back feedback about these things which I felt were fairly obvious - I had also already changed from one CV writer to another although I would have preferred a refund at that time, as my confidence in the service was very low, so this impacted my willingness this time around to keep giving feedback and raising issues - especially when I did not feel like my point was understood and addressed.
I felt that the information I shared about myself, my experiences, and my professional goals was captured well.
My CV is more specific to my career aims and my experiences have been presented in a more concise and professional manner. The writer distinguished between achievements and responsibilities and I though this was useful, as I would not have considered or been able to make this distinction. There were some minor issues with the text which on the first draft was OK, but, seeing them on the second draft was less okay. I would rather receive the work less quickly to feel confident that the writer took their time over it.
In only 4 hours Kathlyn was able to write up my advanced career CV.
With extremely minor changes that were made in minutes - she was able to provide me with an amazing service and my expectations were met from the very first paragraph! I would 1000% recommend this company and especially Kathlyn for anyone that needs a CV written.
Thank you CV Centre! And thank you Kathlyn!
The agent is super helpful, and stuck to their deadline and provided the revised drafts very shortly after being requested. It's been such a pleasure and I will recommend this site to others. The CV that has been written is to a very high standard.
I'm good at writing cover letters, but it takes me weeks of writing and reviewing because I am a perfectionist. Amy was fantastic at writing my cover letter. Thank you, you saved me a lot of time.
I am very happy with the final result, and how all my requests have been dealt with.
I highly recommend The CV Centre
Denise was my agent; her comments were tailored to my resume. One more thing if something was good in the Resume, she highlighted it instead of selling her services which I feel was rare in this industry. I have used many services and the majority of them were copy pasted comments and feedback was generic with high fees.
I can without any hesitation recommend both this company and the Senior Writer who remodelled my CV, my LinkedIn profile, formulated a great cover letter and gave me all the support I needed. At all times, I felt I was in the best hands possible. The Senior Writer was not only knowledgeable and professional, but personable as well, which made the whole experience and exchanges pleasant.
The Senior Writer spent a lot of time with me finalising the draft, ensuring at all times that she had understood what was important for me and which type of position I was applying for. Her patience, professionalism and understanding of the subject matter were superb and the final cover letter fully incorporated all the most important elements of my career.
To ascertain whether this was the right company to rewrite my CV - and it was
Ian has just completed my LinkedIn profile for me - it's much better than what I have currently! Somehow he's made me sound very professional & knowledgeable, can't wait to implement the changes and hopefully get a few more hits on my page!
Really good cover letter written by Ian, hitting all the key points required. Ian was lovely to work with throughout, and happy to carry out any edits I asked of him. I'm actually looking forward to sending out my cover letter now!
I was at a loss with what to do for an ATS CV, but Ian has done a wonderful job on creating this for me. It looks professional, and (hopefully) will be effective! My skills are highlighted brilliantly, even those that I would have considered unimportant. Really pleased.
I have just completed my CV review with Ian, and I can't recommend him highly enough. He has done an absolutely fantastic job on revamping my CV, it looks so polished and he's really brought my skills to life in a way I could never have managed myself. As an added bonus, he has been a pleasure to work with - quick to respond & make any and all edits I've requested, and always friendly to communicate with.
Top job, thank you so much!
If you are anything like me, then writing a CV is a nightmare! Finding a CV author able to pick the bones out of a diverse career like my own is like looking for a needle in a haystack, fortunately I was lucky enough to find one called Claire :) My concise, well laid out and informative CV has been really well received by the executive search professionals with whom I have shared the document, so I am delighted.
I like the professionalism, expertise and technical know of the writer Blake, my CV & cover letter turned out to be outstanding.
I'm extremely pleased with the outstanding service.
I am very pleased with the work Wendy has delivered. The LinkedIn profile is so important, and thanks to Wendy I have a great profile now. This service is so worthy and has a great impact on a job search.
Wendy was a superstar delivering a perfect CV on a first draft. She understood exactly what I wanted and needed and she delivered it within 24 hours. She focused on my experience and made it work on my favour. I am very pleased with her work! Thank you very much!!
Denise was incredibly helpful regarding my CV and the way she broke down each section and how I can improve it took what seemed like a draughting task and made it seem manageable for me.
Zeth provided and well thought and thorough presentation of my personal c.v. I really valued his insight and he was super helpful on all the changes in order to achieve the perfect c.v I wished to achieve. Highly recommended. Thank you Zeth
I am pleased with the CV grammar, layout, and language, it is concise and straight to the point.
I'm extremely pleased with the outstanding service I received from May. Her responses were always on time and I received my first draft earlier than expected. May helped me to see myself in a new light and I'm now confident that I'll be able to land a new role soon. Thank you May. You are a star.
Denise was very clear and concise and gave some great advice
I like that Miss Naomi was very nice, gentle, helpful and friendly. And she always responded immediately to any of my concerns.
There was a free trial, which became useful.
There was an online call service which was quick and easy to set up and enough to receive useful advice, in addition to the reminder emails!
I'm really happy with service.
I did ordered advanced set and was a bit worried about the result .I used this Service for a first time and definitely will recommend to others.
Thank you for your great job, James.
IT IS WEAST OF MONEY
Colette was very helpful, clear and effective in answering all my questions and providing supportive feedback. Very happy with the service she has given.
Was a smooth service and my CV is now totally revamped. The only downside I’d say is that the CV writer wasn’t based in the UK so communication was slightly slow and also the code retrieval every time you received an email was slightly annoying and time consuming
I liked how they personalised the information and content was- targeted my audience well. Design fitted really well
I like the expertise and technical know of the writer Zeth, my CV turned out to be outstanding. We had initial phone call to discuss about my experience, my target role and my expectation in the new cv and Zeth reflected everything I requested in the CV, covering letter and LinkedIn profile. I am really appreciate Zeth took time and effort to create and modify my cv as many times I requested. I am 100% satisfied.
It was surely very indepth review given over the call, the pointers mentioned and the way forward for having best opportunities through effectively use of formats and resume language etc. Highly recommended their review to anyone looking for opportunities. I'm getting my wife's resume review also done asap just because of the way they supported me.

Extremely well written, even know the writers aren't experts within 3D they were able to formulate an expertly crafted CV with the information I provided, instantly receiving interviews and got my dream job starting off my career :) Many thanks CVCentre
I like the professionalism and the warm contact I've had. You feel you are in good hands. This is the second time I have used The CV Centre UK for my CV, LinkedIn profile and Cover Letter.
Helpful friendly and balanced advice, for my CV that needs much work, moving forward with CV writing services
I have tried to contact the service NOTHING, they say it complete but it is not.!!! I want a refund!!
Denise called on time as arranged .
The review of my CV was fair and accurate and she provided guidance on how to improve the CV without the "hard sell".
Polite, to the point and answered all my questions without selling further services.
very impresed
I had a chat with Denise, she was lovely and super help full. pointed out some corrections I could make to my CV that I hadn't even noticed before.
Really happy to say that Denise was absolutely knowledgeable. She had reviewed the CV and the job posting before the call & provided a nice summary of her findings. Suggestions she provided are really valuable.
