Does your CV pass the 30 second test?
Most recruiters and hiring managers spend only about 30 seconds scanning each CV before deciding whether to read further. Therefore your CV must be attractive, impressionable, and enticing to the reader. Recruiters must be able to identify quickly your key achievements, skills, experience and competencies.

Why invest in a professional CV writing service?

30 second test to sift in/out
Most recruiters and business managers only spend 30 seconds looking at your CV. If you don’t invest in a CV writing service, it is likely that your CV will be sifted out early or not even looked at.
In order to avoid being sifted out, it is critical that your CV ‘looks and feels’ professional and fully reflects your skills, competencies and experience.
90% interviews lost -poorly written CVs
A poorly written CV simply means that recruiters and business manager will not understand how suited you really are to the job your are applying for.
In other words, they will not “discover what’s under the surface” (Iceberg CVs TM).
30% better salaries from professional CVs
Evidence shows that a better written CV leads to better roles.
This isn’t necessarily because you can ‘punch above your weight’ (though many do), but because laying out your skills, competencies and experiences provides candidates with increased confidence and a greater awareness of potential.
Time, effort & independent review
A professionally written CV means that you don’t waste time, effort and money trying to develop your own, award-winning CV.
This means you can concentrate on other aspects of job applications. Also, having someone else review and enhance your CV means you benefit from someone else’s experience and feedback.
