A selection of testimonials received

Mr TS, General Manager

Just a quick note to say thanks for your help, the CV is fantastic along with the covering letter. Working on the CV really helped me to see my own strengths and what I enjoyed in my work. This enabled me to give some strong answers in interviews. I will recommend you to my work colleagues. The CV got me numerous interviews, and the good news is I start my new job this week.

Mr PG, Senior Security Consultant

Kevin, I am extremely pleased with your work on my CV. I left the CV for a day or two and went back to it. It covers the areas I am looking to move into over the coming months/years.

Thank you for the time and effort you put into my CV. I have wondered for quite a few years what I had to offer outside the Civil Service - I can now see that I do have some transferable assets.

Mr IE, Events Manager

I just wanted to forward you a note to say thank you for doing such a great job on my CV. I'm now in the middle of job searching feeling a lot more confident now that I'm armed with a strong CV.

I have forwarded your details to a couple of my friends who are also at a career crossroads.

Many thanks again Kevin. I'll be in touch with any news and feedback on the job hunt in the near future.

Mr NM, Senior Systems Engineer

Kevin has created a veritable phoenix of a CV from the flames of my own attempts, a CV that has generated 6 interviews from 6 submissions. It doesn't get better than that. Before deciding to use The CV Partnership, I spoke to Kevin on the phone and he instilled in me a great confidence in his service. That service is second to none and Kevin succeeds in creating a partnership with you to get the right product for your needs. I have recommended the service to a number of colleagues and I would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone looking for a new CV.

Mrs SM, Researcher

Although I was happy with my CV and its layout and believed it provided a good representation of my skills and abilities, I was struggling to get interviews. While surfing on the internet for jobs, I came across The CV Partnership site and decided to call. Kevin was great. We worked through my CV together and he helped me focus clearly on my specific career aspirations and aims. Although my CV hasn't changed substantially in content, Kevin has transformed it into a document which I'm proud to submit to potential employers. And the best news is that I was called for interviews for each of my last three job applications.

Mr SP, Emergency Planning Professional

When I started Job hunting I thought that a CV was a simple thing to draw up. I used a template included in a desktop programme and completed a CV that I sent off when required.

After 6 months of endless applications and no interviews I decided to have the CV done properly. Surfing the Net I saw many companies offering CV writing services but they all seemed faceless conglomerates and some wanted extortionate fees.

I happened upon CV Partnership and saw what I needed, help from a real person at reasonable cost. I sent in my CV and also filled in the questionnaire. The draft I had returned was amazing, all the information was there but the difference to my effort was literally chalk and cheese. My CV Partnership CV really makes me sound good; I would employ me from it!!!

I now realise why I have not had results for the past 6 months. The CV is important and my new one has filled me with confidence that my job search will soon be over.

My CV has been prepared with care and consultation at every step, I feel that I have gained a friend and supporter in my quest, something I am sure the other corporations would not have done.

I cannot recommend CV Partnership highly enough for the excellent service and resulting CV and covering letter that was produced.

Ms CS, Head Teacher

I was impressed by the fact that the service was very quick and that was what I needed. Kevin took the information I gave him and put it in such a way that it was very concise but gave the employer a very clear picture of me and my ability in relation to any job. His extra help with the letter of application was extremely valuable because again, he managed to include so much without it sounding like a list of things I had done!

Mrs AW, Call Centre Manager

When being made redundant I requested the CV Partnership to prepare my CV. The service was very easy to use and, at a time when I was feeling slightly emotional and lacking in confidence, this was definitely the boost I needed.

I have approached organisations directly and via agencies and have found that my CV has opened the door. (I haven't had a negative response, so far!)

The CV that Kevin prepared for me did reflect my working career but the layout and the areas that were focussed on highlighted my skills in a positive manner. I would also like to say that the personal attention I received from Kevin Sheard was superb.

Miss VH, Student

Having recently graduated from university, I found it difficult to compile my CV. Following discussions with CV partnership we developed a very professional and individual CV and Covering Letter that I am extremely happy with. This has enabled me to apply for and attend various interviews. CV Partnership not only helped me put my CV together but also offers support during the interview process. I will definitely be recommending this service in the future to both friends and colleagues.

Mr DC, Finance Executive

I had been employed by the same company for nearly thirty years when I accepted voluntary redundancy. I had attended very few interviews in that time let alone have a CV! Having passed the ripe old age of 50, it was important that my CV captured and demonstrated my potential worth to prospective employers. It was for this reason that I decided to seek professional help from The CV Partnership.

I was extremely pleased with the CV produced by The CV Partnership. The Key Skills and Achievements approach used for my CV provides a clear focus on what I can offer prospective employers, whilst also providing the flexibility of being able to change the order of the skill sets displayed dependant upon the position I am applying for. I have received many favourable comments on the format of my CV from recruitment agencies and prospective employers alike.

I am sure that the modest outlay in utilising The CV Partnership will prove a very worthwhile investment.

Miss BW, Publishing Professional

Kevin was recommended to me by my brother after he was offered a strenuous two day interview for the forensic science department of the police. Kevin helped him out with interview techniques and subsequently he got the job. A few months later I was made redundant from my job and after having been in the same job for a year and a half had built up lots of experience but had no idea how to express this in a CV that would sell myself. That was how Kevin helped.

He sent me a questionnaire to fill out about myself, which was a far easier way to write about myself, as there was a structure to stick to and with this he wrote a comprehensive CV within hours. He used the information I had given and made it sound extremely good. It was in no way fabricated but written in a mature and business like way that I would not have been able to do myself. Subsequently I got the job I was applying for! Rather than me spending hours trying to word things in a positive way, he knows what employers want to see because he has the experience, so you can spend more time looking for actual jobs to apply for.

I would recommend Kevin's help to anyone looking for a job no matter how experienced or qualified.

Mr PC, Financial Services Executive

I found the service very professional and efficient. The process was very slick from start to finish and I felt consulted and involved all the way through. I also found the service to be very friendly & personal, I would definitely recommend it.

Miss RB, Student

Kevin Sheard streamlined my existing CV and made it much more professional. I have been invited to attend three interviews as a result of the CV he worked on for me. I have also used his additional service of interview techniques which I have found very useful. The initial, and follow-up, service that he provides is fantastic. He is very quick to reply to any queries for help you may require. I have already highly recommended his service to many of my own friends and would certainly recommend it to you and your colleagues.

Mr BvZ, Director of Procurement

The letter is perfect and can easily be amended to fit any application. Thanks for all your hard work on this - I really appreciate it.

FYI - I had some feedback from an agent and potential employer who said that they were very impressed with the general lay-out of my CV. I think you did a brilliant job!

Mr JS, PHD

I needed a CV for a PhD application, and I hadn't written a CV for a long time, so I contacted CV Partnership. Kevin collected all my details, and listened carefully to exactly what I wanted. The result was a great CV that I could be really proud of. I would recommend CV Partnership to anyone.

Mr CW, Emigrating to Canada

CV Partnership came highly recommended to me through a contact that works as an immigration consultant. My circumstances were different to many in that I required my CV structuring towards potential employers in Canada.

From day one I found Kevin extremely knowledgeable and professional, and very friendly to deal with. Although all my dealings with Kevin were by email, I still felt that I was provided with a first class service that did not lose any of the personal touches.

Through out the process of preparing my CV nothing was too much trouble, and it soon became apparent that Kevin clearly wanted my CV to be just as successful as I did in securing me those all important interviews. At the end I was presented with a cover letter and CV that was of the highest quality.

I have nothing but praise for the service I received, and would gladly recommend CV Partnership to anyone.

Miss NJ, Events Organiser

I am very pleased with the results of my CV, the words and the layout are brilliant and with the response I have got from potential employers I feel Kevin has done a great job.

I have had one job interview and have another tomorrow so the CV has definitely worked! I am very pleased! Thank you for your work, I would definitely not have been able to do as good on my own!

Mr AA, Senior Business Analyst

I haven't had to write my CV in 25 years in the IT industry. When I put it all down on paper and then tried to fit in all the buzzwords that are needed these days - believe me it is a harder task than it looks. I found Kevin's number and put my trust in him. My trust was repaid and now I have a CV I am proud of.

Mr JB, Business and Leisure Graduate

Kevin was a great help and very supportive in my push for a new job. He produced a very professional and presentable CV and covering letter, thanks!

Miss CT, Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist

Hi Kevin, just to say a big thank you - I've got a job! I got interviews for every job I applied for and lots of great feedback from the CV! So, I start in 2 weeks time at a BUPA Wellness centre and am v excited about that.

So thanks again and hope all is well with you.
