CV pilots played an integral role in…

CV pilots played an integral role in the securing of my highly competitive job in finance. Throughout my time working with CV Pilots, they have been highly reliable and committed to high quality output at all times. There is a rare combination of the highest level of professionalism, and a relaxed and friendly approach. It actually takes away a lot of pressure from the stressful job search experience - which I particularly appreciated. Before working with this company, I was not even getting through the initial application stage for any jobs (despite a high level of education and credentials). A fundamental part of job application success lies in an effective presentation of your skills and experience - this is what CV Pilots do like no one else I’ve worked with previously. I highly recommend CV Pilots to anybody who is looking to secure their dream job. They offer impressive CV and Cover Letter writing services, as well as extremely helpful one-to-one coaching.

Poor Compassion

Sadly, a poor experience with little compassion.

Again, this was explained numerous times about having a life threatening illness - a little compassion would not go a miss rather than just ‘business’.

All the best

Reply from CV Pilots

Dear Harry,

We’re sorry to hear that you weren’t pleased with your experience. We never had an opportunity to produce a CV for you, as you cancelled your initial consultation with your writer last minute on 3 separate occasions.

As discussed, we were extremely flexible given your circumstances and offered multiple rescheduling opportunities free of charge. We finally had to charge you the cancellation fee outlined in our terms that you agreed to when you placed your order.

We also issued a refund for the remaining amount when you decided you no longer needed our services.

Best,
Matt

Very helpful

Their ability to capture my experience and work history in a clear and concise manner was exactly what I needed. Very constructive and responsive to my needs.

Helpful pointers

Helpful in the sense of pointers about what sort of information to include / how to craft it

Pretty sure my experience was not something which had been seen before, so am not entirely sure we got the best messaging across but that was something i could remediate

So overall helpful to me in taking an unpolished version to something i can use

Superb from start to finish

Superb from start to finish. The CV has never looked better and whilst I am knowledgeable on LinkedIn, Matt gave me some super hints and tips to really make my profile visible. Thank you and would thoroughly recommend to anyone. It is worth the money, trust me!

Great value for money and a 5 star experience

Was dubious about using a CV writing company again as i dont feel i got my moneys worth last time. However at a time when i really needed to ensure I got considered for the right opportunities, i decided to go with CV Pilots.

I'm really pleased i did - it wasnt cheap - but I do feel i got good value for money - in depth questioning to understand my needs, things delivered at the time that they were promised, easy access to the people assigned to my case.

Highly recommend these guys.

Clear recommendation not to write CVs yourself

Matt and his team are very organized and structured. This allows an exact and reliable coordination of appointments. In the interview part, they go into details that seemed unimportant to me but bring significant added value. These points are worked out cleanly and can be found in the resume. The transfer to LinkedIn also went very well. I've learned a lot about using LinkedIn. I will contact CV Pilots again for the next adjustment.

Professional & Personable

Matt was very professional and personable. He managed to understand my domain, draw insights and highlight my most saleable points. His work went beyond writing a good CV. After talking with Matt I was able to better frame my experience which helped with conversations in interviews.

Great CV template

I bought one of their CV templates online. Really nice format, super easy to use and great value for the time saved in coming up with my own.
