Andrew was adept at getting to the point of what I wanted my CV to do and together we produced a document which has been admired by other professionals in the recruitment field - some of whom had expressed scepticism that I should pay for a CV writing service.
I am pleased with it because it summarises my career and makes it easy for me to show, and talk about, my strengths and achievements.

I have been very impressed with the help I have received from Andrew at CVpal. Having not had the need for a CV for 10 years I was not looking forward to the process but he managed to completely de stress the whole thing. The face to face time was very useful and enabled us to bring to life and summarise my experience to date and I am very encouraged by the initial feedback I have had from prospective employers.

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 contacted CVpal to refresh my resume' after being out of the job market for 2 years due to illness.
Andrew my adviser was highly motivated in getting the cv presentation spot on and I think it matches my skill base and expertise that I have to offer prospective employees. I would recommend this team to any of my friends and colleagues.

Andrew was really helpful from our very first contact by telephone, and, as promised my cv arrived a few days later. Just a few modifications, and the final copy as e mailed to me within the hour. Brilliant service. Thank you for your kind help Andrew.
