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.

I thought my CV was great until I had it critiqued. When I read the report it made sense as to where I had gone wrong. I took on board the suggestions and now it is much more professional. I only used the free service but that was helpful.

I got my existing CV critiqued and reviewed by TopCV recently. I received a prompt review of it without 48 hours and it has been very helpful for me. I re-wrote my CV based on the points they mention in the review.

The reviewer analyzed the CV on the basis of overall appearance, formatting of text and use of language. It gave me feedback on how can I improve my chances against the automatic CV/resume analysis tools that are largely used by corporations to analyze these documents.

Great CV review
April 5, 2019

Requested the free CV critique option, and was delighted that the review highlighted downsides that I didn't think about before. Taking the critique notes I really like how it improved my CV look and content. Shortly after these improvements had successful feedback for job application. Now I feel much confident about my CV. I would use TopCV in the future for Cover Letter and definitely recommends their services.

It's pretty easy to let pride get in the way when our work has to be reviewed by a third party, and we often allow this. But if we were honest enough we'd effortlessly tell the difference between a baseless bashing and a professional view of the subject matter. In my case, with an open mind, it proved easy agreeing with all the loopholes spotted in my CV, which were professionally communicated. I find this service to be highly efficient and dependable.
Thank you.

I can only comment on my own experience with my quite out of date CV; I received a free critique with options to purchase additional services--which I didn't take up. The critique made some strong points that my tone and use of voice weren't the best way to present myself. Because of this I rewrote my resume myself, fixing all the issues that I could.
All in all I am happy with the CV review itself.

The comments I received are similar to those that I received previously from my CV. This meant that TopCV actually reviewed my CV and didn't send me generic comments.

I came to the service only with the pretense to build my curriculum. However, a few moments after I finished I received an incredible feedback with broad advices on how to improve the order of informations in my CV as well as present myself better.
One of the difficulties that web developers have seeking for job opportunities today is to show what they "makes". They are good as "doers" and with the feedback that TopCV offered me I was able to figure out this and see that I'm a "achiever".
All this for free. A outstanding experience. I totally recommend the service!

Helpful CV critique
March 21, 2019

I only requested for the free CV critique. The review comments were on point and useful. Katie was also very professional, courteous and prompt with her responses. Their CV critique was a good starting point for me to improve my CV.

Experience was OK but a bit mixed - the initial draft was really VERY short and missed some key achievements in my career. The reaction to comments was not as fast as well.

I think in the end we came to good CV although its efficiency still has to be proved (at moment all my job leads came from previous "worse" CV and not yet a single one from new "improved" version)

I received a CV critique from TopCV. Though I thought I had it all covered, their insights helped me to procure a more competitive resume. One that not only shows my skills and potential, but that also expresses the power of my achievements as a base for future endeavors.
