About this service

Summary

You've finally found your dream job. You've checked the details and you're just right for the position. You dig out your resume/CV and ... uhoh .... it's a mess - out of date, unprofessional looking and with totally the wrong emphasis. You also realise with horror that you need to write a covering letter for this job - something that will make you stand out from a crowd of maybe thousands of similarly well-qualified applicants ... No pressure!
You could have a go yourself - maybe buy an attractive Word template, burn some midnight oil and finally create something OK-ish. Or you could get in touch with me to discuss how I might help.

What's included

  • Resume/CV and/or covering letter

    * A resume/CV - either for general use or tailored for a specific job. That could involve simple proofreading of an existing resume/CV, or customisation, or complete writing from scratch. * I can also write a really persuasive covering letter for you, based closely on the job details and showing how your experience and skills are a good match.

I've had a great opportunity to work with Matthew on recreating my CV. Matthew was asking a lot of good questions to understand my career, companies that I worked for, their business and the challenges related to my roles. That let him boost my CV by highlighting my strength and specific skills. He was a good listener, took a great attention to details and using of proper words. I was delighted with the process and the result. CV looked much more powerful, appealing, professional and correct.

I was applying for a job in an international organisation. Matthew did a great job with my CV and covering letter. He presented all my qualifications and competences in a way that best suited the company’s requirements and values. He managed to describe my job experience, hobbies and charity work to good advantage. He made the information look professional and lively. When I was invited for interwiew he helped me to prepare a presentation, researched further ideas that could be included.
