Our clients say

"Very happy with the service, especially at such short notice. My old CV was doing me no favours. After trying to rewrite the CV myself over 3 days, I wish I had got your help sooner. Amazing CV that I am sure will get the job done. Thanks again."
Hilary - HR Manager - uk
"Hi Seanie, The Cover Letter and CV look great, I am very happy with them. The vague aspects of my CV have been replaced by specifics, which is exactly what I could not achieve myself. I already have an interview in the morning."
Brand manager - marketing professional
"CV looks brilliant. How you managed to fit into 2 pages was incredible. CV looks so much different and so much better. I have added the dates as requested. It was too Project Management focused and also removed mention of COMPANY. I may add additional info, but am sure this can be amended when applying for different type of roles? Again you have done an incredible job. I agree, my different roles have not exactly been consistent so it did make it harder to edit but you did it better than I could have ever dreamed of doing. Other than minor changes I am thrilled with what you have done for me."
Eddie, Technology Director/Territory Manager

French CV – Page 2

This should only stretch out to the first half of Page 2, with the sole aim of reinforcing and reflecting much of the various factual statements that is reflective of a successful career in your chosen  field. A normal  ‘Run-of-the-Mill’ CV and Cover Letter for Senior roles is probably going to do you more harm than good.  Regardless of the Sector, Industry and Specific role, there is unique and fundamental information that needs to be conveyed when applying for any role within the French speaking market.  Let us take over from here.
