While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

I am awful at CV formatting, and this was just what I needed to put together a tailored CV that looked professional. Super intuitive, and great designs.

Super user-friendly!

For first-time CV makers, it solved a lot of headaches for starting off your CV. You really only need the details to be put in and it makes sure that it looks super presentable.

I had no idea what CV was or how to write one. Your site provided multiple templates to choose from and put the information together perfectly. It is easy to edit after the fact and easy to download the various versions! On the whole, the experience was fantastic! I’m so glad to have found StandOut CV! -IK in SF

Hi David, thanks very much for the review! I notice it's only 2 star though - is there anything we could do to improve the rating?

Looking for a user-friendly CV Service? Try Standout CV

I have been looking around for a CV service that offers professionally designed templates with the freedom and flexibility to add/amend/change as required.
Having fine-tuned the content over many years I did not require a CV writer to do it for me and was grateful that Standout CV offers the user friendly service which allows one to upload one's CV content to a professional-looking template.
The other thing that impressed me was the speed at which the team responded to my email enquiries on aspects of the website or service that I was uncertain about. It made my completion of the task a great deal easier.
Equally important is the facility to go back into one's CV and amend or change at any time. That has been hugely helpful. I have done so on countless occasions already when I've wanted to tweak some information, change the layout or correct an error.

Companies can ask for reviews via automatic invitations. Labeled Verified, they’re about genuine experiences.
