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.

Fast and informative
September 14, 2017

They were very swift with their analysis after I sent my CV over, I received the feedback a day after I had submitted it. The analysis itself was very constructive and explored all aspects of my CV to be improved.

I had asked for a CV critique, I received a very in-depth analysis the very next day and it was FREE!. The CV critique is divided into various sections and recommendations to improve for each section. I highly recommend this service.

A very professional company
September 12, 2017

I found this company to be very professional. At every stage they kept me updated and always phrased feedback in a way I could understand. The end result was a very professional CV and cover letter that made me feel very confident in my myself and my skills. Highly recommended!

Thanks CVNow
September 6, 2017

In less than 24 hours I received the critique for my CV free of charge - which was very detailed and comprehensive. Although this is not my first time to write a CV since I have been working for 8 years, the critique flagged several points that Ive never thought about before and I do not think I would have without such critique. It helped me to read my CV from an employer/recruiter perspective. I would highly recommend using such service from CVNow

Excellent Service!
September 5, 2017

I found the service insightful, honest and assertive. Though sceptical at first, I thought, "well it's free!" I was surprised as to the depth in which my advisor would critique my CV and how helpful my review was. It has made me completely rethink how I write my CV

I received a free critique and it wasn't generic, but honest, professional and in my case, very useful. The critique was also drafted in a friendly manner, so I for one found it very easy to accept any observations.

Very thorough
September 2, 2017

I was absolutely blown away by the level of detail put into my CV critique. I received a comprehensive dissection of my CV. The information contained within my critique I would have never known. I only sent in for the critique because I wasn't getting call backs for interviews and so I thought it was just a very competitive market. I thought I had a good CV to begin with. My critique not only told me what was wrong with my CV but also why it was wrong and many improvements to be made. I would highly HIGHLY recommend Cvnow to everyone.

I reviewed and updated my CV yearly even I was being engaged in a very strong, reliable company for 13 years. But 2 yrs ago, when our potential customer suddenly changed policy, I had to leave when the age of 61. Then I got new job in 2 days. Now I was retrenched, and I realize my CV is still not good enough, thanks to CVNow.co.uk, for guiding me on my CV very specific and effectively. I hope outcome will be much better.

They offer an initial service for free and check your CV to evaluate whether it is well written or not and whether it will impact on the reader or not. They give valuable suggestions there. The point is the free service shows your CV's mistakes but if you pay, they will revise it more deeply and they will rewrite it. I didn't take the further services.

However, I am very happy and thankful that someone read it and gave a sincere feedback on what my mistakes are which are not letting me get the job I want.

Received insightful and honest feedback on my CV from an expert. Would have loved to explore more through paid subscription to their services, however, I felt the pricing was bit on the upper side. But would definitely recommend their services!
