Our CV and Cover Letter Writing Service

At CareerBalance, we have helped hundreds of clients get the interviews they deserve, for the jobs they really want.

Professional CV

We provide intensive support to help you create a professional CV. A CV that clearly sets out what you have to offer will catch the eye of recruiters . It will also make sure that it isn’t rejected by automated CV sifting systems. After all, you only have a few seconds to make an impact. Many CV services simply re-hash the content of your existing CV. This leaves you with having weak documents with poor structure and full of jargon. With our help, you’ll create a CV that truly reflects who you are and shows off your skills, knowledge and experience . Most importantly, you’ll be able to substantiate your CV in job interviews.

We go back to basics

Finding links between your job successes and highlighting these on your CV to emphasise your unique selling points will make you stand out. A great CV will generate interest from recruiters and employers for the job that matches the rewards you are seeking.

Briefing Session

We’ll discuss the kinds of jobs for which you want to apply, the salary package that you are aiming fir, and the organisations you wish to target. This can be done over email or by phone. Alternatively, you can choose to meet with your career coach for a 45-minute briefing session.

Your career coach will then work with you by email to help you prepare an impressive CV that will catch the eye of potential employers.

This service includes guidance on producing high quality cover letters to complement your CV, creating a strong personal statement for job application forms, and how to improve your LinkedIn profile. LinkedIn has become an important place for employers and recruitment consultants to find potential candidates for job opportunities, so your LinkedIn profile has to be as effective as possible.

What Our Clients Say

"At my Career Options and Job Search Consultation with CareerBalance my career coach showed me a job that she thought I should apply for. I went home and made my application. I was successful and have been working for this company for several months. I would never have found this opportunity on my own."

"I was made redundant a couple of months ago and luckily my employer paid for me to have outplacement support. I had no idea what to expect. Before my appointment with CareerBalance I was feeling demotivated and despondent and I hadn't applied for any jobs. I also thought my age would count against me. Now I've met my career coach and she's helped me to see that there are jobs out there for me. She's also helped me to sort out my CV and we looked at both fixed term and permanent jobs that I could apply for in my area. I am now much more focused and I'm confident that I'll secure a new job soon."

Vanessa Martin

“I just wanted to email to say thank you for my programme proposal and your advice. As a result of it, I managed to get a job at the General Dental Council which I would never have looked at without your advice, so thank you. An worthwhile appointment. I thought I'd just let you know and to say thank you for your assistance."
