Be careful. Although the response I received was actually quite useful, I subsequently learned that the response is copy-and-pasted in terms of the wording so it is not necessarily personal or definitive advice. The company's goal is to convince you to pay for a rewrite and I've read nothing but terrible reviews about this. More...

I used CV Knowhow to improve my chances of employment within the Logistics sector. I was assigned to Tara M who redesigned and tailored my CV. Having applied for numerous jobs, most of them below my experience and skillset. I have not recieved a single job interview in 6 months. My old CV which Tara changed was used by a friend who has successfully gained employment 5 times using it. I feel this service has added no value to my search, if anything it has hindered my chances. Please look elsewhere or seek free advice to improve your CV. CV Knowhow didn't even have the courtesy to reply to an email I sent them 14 Nov 20. This lack of customer aftercare reflects the effectiveness of the CV.
Leaving poor reviews is something I rarely feel the need to participate in. However, due to CV Knowhows lack of empathy and extremely poor communication I stand by this decision.😡

Awful experience with this company. Their customer service is horrendous and in terms of communicating with you, don't expect anything. It's taken me countless reminder emails to get anywhere, not at least a response. Also, their refund policy is outrageous. I was told I would get a refund ( I have not used the service due to Covid and personal matters), two months later, still no refund. After chasing (countless times again) I've been told that I cannot have a refund, despite telling me it was being processed in November! More...

Worst service ever. DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE AT ALL.

This website should be banned.

I ordered a CV and cover letter. My writer was full of bullsh** and knew nothing. He provided a sample format to cover letter and asked me to change it when required !!!
please do not spend money on TOPCV OR CV KNOWHOW they are the same people. Fooling people around.

I was expecting much when I put forward my C.V to be reviewed. As like most people, I was under the impression that there was nothing wrong with my C. V. All that changed when I received honest and accurate feedback for no cost whatsoever. Will definately take feedback on board, if you're thinking about getting your C.V reviewed then don't the nk and use this great service. More...

I felt that the CV I had wasn't attracting potential employers so I thought i'd try CV knowhow to give me feedback. It was confirmed, I was under selling myself. I was given clear feedback on what content wasn't needed & what I should be including, together with what content I should keep. It was extremely helpful. More...

I didn't realise how unproffesional my cv looked untill i recieved my free review. I have used several free services through job centre and various other work shops and all they have ever done is give me one or two little things to change. Now i have detailed information on how i can make it more presentable and how to condense my points.I am genuinely saddened that i havent used this service before and hopefully after editing my cv i wont need to ever edit it again ( hopefully have a job ) More...

Very professional service and quick, my CV was very old fashioned and this company and their writer helped to update my CV to give me confidence applying for roles. I would highly recommend CV Knowhow if you want to improve how you look to a prospective employer when sending them your CV. I was impressed with the way the Writer understood the subject matter of each role I worked and was able to accurately reflect what I did in each Job - better than me! Thanks CV Knowhow and Julie More...

I received a really helpful critique of my CV which has enabled me to considerably improve my CV. I feared that the feedback would be generic and would feel 'automated' but it was in fact very specific, even giving examples where the tone/language in my CV could be improved to make it more compelling. I also gained some useful tips and advice about the content and structure of my CV which I was not previously aware of. Overall, really happy with the service and I now have a lot more confidence in my CV after implementing their notes. More...

I used the CV Knowhow to review my CV and was impressed with their feedback.
I opted for the Executive Priority package and with the very draft, I knew something was wrong as the CV was poorly written and had no consideration of my field and skills, I am from IT and the CV was more formatted as for a sales/marketing person. Even ATS (application tracking software) was picking my skills completely incorrect.
I shared the feedback with the writer, unfortunately, no avail. The cover letter and linked profile weren’t helpful either. My LinkedIn profile was cut short and most of my previous jobs were omitted. Even though I shared an article from LinkedIn CEO which does suggest using linked as a supportive tool for the resume, it fell on deaf ears.
Regrettably, there is no consideration of the feedback and I was handed over the final product which in 3 months resulted in lots of rejections but, any interest.
I then asked for the resume to be rewritten as covered in their guarantee scheme however, the reiteration was again disappointing.
The service/company is definitely not recommended.

It was helpful it guided me on why was good about my cc and how I could improve it, I mean I can’t complain it’s free things XD. I guess the only thing that i would like to improve is when I tried again after I edited it I got the same response yet again. I don’t know if I’m just bad at cvs or if they just couldn’t see the changes I made. More...

The feedback was really relevant to my CV and made specific and helpful suggestions of changes I could make. It also gave me some insight in to what employers are looking for when they are viewing a CV and it helped me to evaluate whether I was coming across in the way I wanted to or the way that best describe my skill set.

In depth, honest and very detailed and specific feedback. The review clearly showed the flavour of my submitted CV with excellent suggestions on how to turn a 'This is what I do' statement into a 'this is what I have achieved' statement. A summary was also shown of how automated CV analysis would see my submission which is hugely helpful. More...

I was not expecting to have such an in depth review of my CV once i had sent it to be checked, I read the review by Caroline which i found to be very helpful as it pointed out all the things that were wrong with it and how to best fix them. It also gave me a lot more knowledge about how CV's should be written as i was clearly doing it wrong this whole time. Since re-doing my CV iv'e had 3 interview opportunity's and have managed to get a job all within 4 days of having the new CV. Would recommend the free review to anyone who was thinking about doing it. More...

I think CV KNOWHOW is a good company run by honest people. I purchased the Executive Priority package using their monthly installments payment scheme. I paid £80 which is non-refundable then I started reading the bad reviews and I got scared. I emailed them asking for a refund. In my head, I had already thought that if they refund that means they are not like what is being online about them and is actually a very good company. If they don't refund, I thought that I would have to go ahead with the service I chose but I would lose respect for the company. Today they replied to and told me that they have refunded me. I have actually very surprised and pleased. They were under no obligations to refund me but they did and that is what proves they are genuine about customer satisfaction. More...

It was a relief to have perspective outside of my circle to review my CV. Caroline’s critics were honest and genuine and I believe added another dimension to my resume. She picked on things I hadn’t yet realised and once I did, I felt was the best move. The experience and communication was very straightforward and valuable. More...
