TopCV Reviews Summary

The company has garnered mixed feedback regarding its CV writing services. Positive aspects include effective communication from some writers, professional insights, and a few customers reporting successful job placements after using the service. However, significant concerns revolve around the quality of the final products, with many customers feeling that the CVs were poorly tailored, often generated by AI, and lacking in industry-specific detail. Delays in service delivery and inadequate customer support further exacerbate these issues, leading to a perception of the company as unreliable. Overall, while some clients had satisfactory experiences, a notable number expressed disappointment, suggesting a need for improved service consistency.

Happy customer
June 22, 2021

Love my new CV. I realised that choice words matter when writing CV and Harrison S worded my CV brilliantly. It is short precise and contain all essential information. Would recommend topCV to anyone in need of selling themselves to employers.

Very satisfied as my main targets for a new professional CV were fully achieved:
1. Shorten the CV without impacting the essential information
2. Highlighting main achievements
3. The use of A more impacting language without exaggerating skills

All of the above being achieved.
Best regards

Excellent job
June 22, 2021

Submitted my cv for a review had the appraisal back!
Re read my cv looked at the options for payments thought it was expensive waited for a discount code resubmitted my cv 24 hours later! WOW.
Never needed any additional information bang on first time, wish I had done it earlier. Response to applications has tripled in 4 days. Well worth the money.

I paid for a CV and covering letter.

They sent back a CV which had awful grammar, syntax and even spelling. Inserted the word "spearheaded" several times!?!

I complained and they responded a few days later. They said it was a draft.

Second draft just as bad.

I asked for a refund. As the job deadline I needed to apply for had passed.

I've spent the last month swapping emails as they refuse a refund and also refuse to answer other basic questions like how I complain etc.

Avoid at all costs.

Great and super support
June 16, 2021

From the outset very supportive and quick turnaround. Was very helpful answering all my queries too as nervous my cv would not stand out from the crowd and was out at ease every time.
Just hope my cv and linked in profile now is seen and I at least get some interest…. Time will tell!

It was a wonderful and amazing experience. I really enjoyed my background description for the first time! I had an outstanding and committed service with a new CV, CL, and Linkedin profile. I could have a new perspective of my career/background and take the next step for a new journey.

1- The Writer was very cooperative and supportive, however, his strength is in doing common project management resumé and not technical resumé based on first and second drafts.
2- It was a prompt action which is well appreciated, efforts are over-priced, especially that the virtual promise of getting a job within 60 days is not valid and for advertisement purpose only.
3- In some sites, the auto-fill didn't work properly.
4- Somes spelling mistakes were detected by other sites such as Google or Client portals
5- I used to get more calls on my old CV.
6- Overpriced compared to other writing entities.

Appreciate the inputs and summary. Totally agree with the review and started immediately to change the language. It's like when people ask you who you are, often we tend to start talk about what we do for a living, but we are more than our professions. Put the light on that, what makes you stand out out of 250 applicant's? How can they learn to know your 25-30 or 40 years of life and your achievements in two pages?
Their review can help you.

Thanks
