TopCV writes and analyzes more CVs and LinkedIn profiles than any other service through their network of experienced writers.
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.

TopCV couldn't do enough to help me. Despite the fact that they were working over the Christmas holidays revisions were sent quickly and had been well though out. I was targeted very much like a valued client and not just a number to be cleared off a list.
Such an easy portal platform to use and upload all the documents. Great service from Karien, always a quick response, great advice, and all changes were completed. I feel far more confident in sending my cv out now.
I found TopCV writers woefully inexperienced to write professional CVs, based on their poor English and subject matter ignorance. It is quite obvious that TopCV outsources to non-native English speaking writers who have little or no knowledge in my subject matter (security). The drafts received were riddled with sloppy layout, poor text, and English grammar mistakes ("focussed, prefect, amicus curaie" to name a few). The final draft was only bearable (and still inferior to mine) because I corrected all the errors for the writer and rewrote much of her text. I recommend TopCV to spend more money on NATIVE English speaking writers if it wants to impress native English speaking clients.
Katie has helped me already eventhough I still haven't ordered billable service. I'm anyway very close to order a billable service to modify my CV. I will come back on that.
Loved the service, thank you for the review - very detailed. I shared your platform on my instagram.
Review was good. It helped me to find how can I improve my CV.
My experience regarding Top cv, First class, very professional and efficient especially if there were any alterations to the CV.
I would highly recommend them to other people to use them
Very good and fast service. The CV wad completed and received very quickly.
I had been thinking of having my CV done professionally for some time, eventually deciding I'd use the services of TopCV.
They were prompt in their reply to me and condensed my three page CV I sent them into one that consisted of one page.
They were happy to make a couple of alterations I asked for, though only after we had discussed them and their impact on my CV.
So far, it has been well worth the money.
Very positive, quick turnaround and great outcome. The support was excellent, they got to understand me as a candidate first and rewrites were done when requested immediately.
I was able to connect with my writer super fast and she allowed me to be apart of the process.
Found too many exaggerated words for my liking but, they were easily replaced and understandably the idea to stand out.
My CV was redone in a few days he really took care and the end product was exactly what I had hoped it would look like. I am very please with the content and design.
I sent my CV which I thought it was quite good as I put effort on it. Sure with room for improvement, but good enough.
When reading the revision I was in shock. All comments were amasingly useful and I realised and clearly understood why my candidature never goes further.
I am applying all advice and probably will resquest suport to have it perfect!
Thanks a lot
I was surprised by the amount of information for free.
Professionals that helped me rewrite Cover Letter, CV & LinkedIn profile so as to target a totally new industry in my job hunting.
Very satisfied with their work as they not only verbalised what I couldn't, but also they were very supportive with my career change. Thank you Ashton A. For the good vibes.
Answer: They're a scam - and they'll all rot in hell. I hope our responses here save some other poor souls their hard earned cash. Absolutely appalling service - they're bullies and extortionists at best. A bunch of cheap crooks who cost us our hard earned cash!
Answer: Hi Elena, Great question! Our resume writing process is collaborative between the writer and the client. We use your old resume as a primary source of information, but you will also be able to provide additional details via our questionnaire and in communication with your writer. It's as simple as that! Please let us know if there are any other questions you have. Thanks!
Answer: Don't believe them Tracy! It took them 2 weeks to finally send me something, and it was basically what I had sent them. I complained and they gave my CV to someone else -- with NO rush put on it of course, and 3 weeks later I'm still without my professional CV that is supposed to come with Satisfaction Guaranteed. Only problem is they don't know what that means!
Answer: Easier to ignore an email.
Answer: Hi Phoebe, Great question. In total the process typically takes one to two weeks to get your perfect CV. For more information on our services, please visit: https://www.topcv.co.uk/faq
