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.

Irish CV
December 3, 2019

I was looking for a company to update my resume and tailor it specifically for the Irish market. Nathan was extremely helpful and took my feedback and made my CV the best it could be. After submitting his newly created CV, I received a call from a recruiter the next morning. Highly recommended.

TopCV has helped me make a cleaner and a more appealing CV. Katie was very fast in helping out, and she was always asking, as guidance, if there is anything I would want to know.

Perfect job of my TopCV writer
November 27, 2019

My TopCV writer has created an excellent CV and a cover letter which corresponded to all my requests. She made all the corrections that I've asked for and provided the result in time. She kept sending me the drafts until I was fully satisfied. A great job.

Great effort from topcv team. You should be a bit more consistent with the dates or if the work load is high, you should give more time to your writers. To conclude, your service is quite satisfying.

Great insights gained
November 26, 2019

I have submitted various CV's for many vacancies. Some with success, some without. Never before though was it explained to me why CV did NOT make the cut. This review provided wonderful insights - I will definitely be making some changes...

Having paid £120 for a professional CV and a second revision, what I received was so poor, and in fact dis-honest, that it is unusable. Seriously, had I been recruited based on this CV, I could have been sued for mis-representation, it was so inaccurate.
The covering letter was embarrassing, and as an experienced sales professional, held the sort of one liners, that a double glazing call center would use cold calling. It was cringe-worthy.
Having reviewed it, re-submitted it with the mountain of errors explained, apparently as I did not do this within 5 days, that is that.
Despite writing to them and pointing out that they failed in their part of the contract to produce professional and accurate CV, is all I get back, is 'Give us more money, and we will fix it'.
I have repeatedly pointed out that I would have expected a call, but they simply ignore any question's including are you really in the UK?
AVOID - I do not think the actual writers are UK based.
