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.

Poor service. I paid for the Executive package. The CV writer assigned to me had no clue about writing a CV. Most of what he did was copy and paste, did not pay attention to the questionnaire I completed or the example job descriptions I provided him. The output was full of basic errors. When I raised this as an issue he basically asked me to write the CV for him. The Cover Letter was completed generic, it could virtually be used by any person in any profession. It had no mention of what I do my skills or experience. The Linkedin profile I did not receive.
Experience was very good. Fulton was very efficient and understood what I wanted from the outset
The process was straight forward - whilst it inevitably required some input it was not overly time consuming and the result was well worth it.
It was a good service and the response was quite quick.
Very professional review by Katie Warren which really got me interested. Very dynamic and logical package put together by Keith. We went back and forth till I understood some of the changes he had made and he understood my requirements. The end product looks so good. I am sure it would be very effective too.
I had ordered theEssential service and paid the additional 50 Euros to get 24 hour delivery. All I can say is: DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY with Topcv. All you will end up is loss of nerve... I presume, "Lena" and "Isobel" workat Topcv, as these reviews CANNOT be authentic...
I was very impressed by the support I got in creating my new CV. Sarah was extremely professional and knowledgeable and responded very quickly.
CV update and LinkedIn profile was generally good. Disappointed with the mock interview. Not worth the money. Not geared for someone who has been working at a senior level for 20 years. More suited for young people starting their careers, perhaps just leaving University or higher education. I must say, Cheryl was extremely polite.
The process was very efficient and the people I dealt with was professional and fast in their response. Engagement was to the point and the outcome was a clean and professional cv that clearly highlighted the important points.
Thank you, I will recommend your services at anytime.
Good customer service and a very well written cv, cover letter and LinkedIn profile
Fantastic service, Aaron has done an amazing job rewriting my CV.
Thanks again
Fab experience, not rushed. I can see my skills and accomplishments so much more clearly now. Thank you for doing such an amazing jiob.
My reviewer was professional, incorporated my requests and even made a few modifications post deadline. It's been a pleasurable experience worthy of recommendation.
It was a very good, the team has delivered top class CV. They were always on top following up on my feedback.
I recently got signed up for TopCV premium service offering of £219. After couple of day I got another email from them with new discounted offering of £25 to get thank you letter done professionally.
I was in tight spot, I though why not.
They took 7 days to come back. Cut story short - when I received the CV I was in shock to read the language and they also did a big mistake with dates of my employment history (they were not in any order).
I was not happy.
Upon requesting refund - they have stopped responding.
Now, I have no choice but to go to courts and my local bank.
Avoid these scammers if you looking to get CV reviewed.
I am happy with my CV, it looks really nice and professional, it was a great help for me to have my skills layed out like this, as English is not my first language. Communication is fast, I have got answers to all of my questions and my CV was finished earlier then the anticipated time.
Impressed with the material quality and professionalism of the assigned consultant, Thank you!
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
