Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of a professionally written CV?

When you work with a CV writing service, you’re investing in a quicker job search and a more fruitful and satisfying career. To have job search success, your CV has to appeal to both the CV CV scanning software and the hiring manager — or else you risk getting lost in the “CV black hole”, where your job application is dismissed without consideration because of your CV.

A professionally written CV:

Helps you find a job faster

Candidates using CVs rewritten by CV Knowhow have proven to be 3 times more likely to secure a new job than those using a self-written CV.

Makes you more valuable in the eyes of recruiters

Recruiters valued candidates with professionally written CVs to be worth 7% more than when assessed using their self-written versions. With a professionally written CV, you can help ensure your next position will come with a bigger paycheck.

Get noticed more

Job seekers using CV Knowhow are interviewed 2 to 3 times more often than those using self-written CVs.

How does the CV-writing process work?

The CV writing process begins with us getting to know you and learning about your history and career goals. Once we’ve learned more about you, we’ll match you with a writer knowledgeable about your industry.

Your writer collaborates with you on a first draft, which will be delivered to you in about a week. Then, you'll have another week to provide feedback to your writer, with up to two rounds of revisions.

Overall, the CV writing process typically takes one to two weeks.

What qualifications do CV Knowhow writers have?
