Best CV Writing Service

YourCVConsultant.co.uk is a company founded by a career advice writer called Chris who previously worked for similar sites. According to the website, its founder has experience of 15 years in the field of CV writing and therefore, knows how to deliver amazing products.

While this all sounds impressive, the reputation Yourcvconsultant has online is not so great. I read some bad things in yourcvconsultant.co.uk reviews online before I even ordered to check their quality. Customers have shared similar concerns regarding the quality and service offered by this company. If you want to learn about my experience also, keep reading this Yourcvconsultant review.

Offered Services

On this website, you cannot find individual services, only packages. There are five packages ordered in total and these are:

  • Gold CV Package (CV and cover letter in Word and PDF format)
  • Gold Plus CV Package (CV, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile setup)
  • Phone Consultation CV Package (CV, cover letter, LinkedIn profile update, 2 phone calls, and performance/life coach assistance)
  • Diamond Career Package (CV, cover letter, LinkedIn profile update, career coaching, face to face coaching session, motivational coaching, 2 and follow up phone calls or Skype sessions, and strategies to progress with your career)
  • LinkedIn Package (LinkedIn profile set up or makeover)
  • Skype CV Package (remote CV consultation, CV and cover letter, session with a performance coach, and LinkedIn profile update)

Prices, Discounts and Special Features

The prices are different depending on which package you choose. If you look at the pricing, you’ll see higher prices crossed off and lower presented as a discount. But, since I read about the same rates in all comments, it is safe to say that this is a marketing trick and not an actual discount.

Their LinkedIn package is the most affordable option. It costs only £24.95, but you solely get a LinkedIn makeover within 2 working days, so it isn’t really a package after all.

The Gold CV package costs £59.95 and is delivered within 3 working days. The Gold CV plus package costs £79.95 and is delivered within 5 working days. If you want to get it sooner, you’ll pay a higher price and have to ask the support for it.

If you choose to get two phone calls from a performance coach, the price for that package is £119.95. The Diamond package is bulky in terms of offers, but it also costs quite a lot – £399.99. And lastly, there’s the Skype CV package with a price of £149.95.

Even though there aren’t real discounts here, these prices are acceptable considering what you are getting. However, they don’t have individual services, which can be a disadvantage.

Writer Certifications and Service Guarantees

Yourcvconsultant.co.uk is said to work with only greatly qualified writers overseen by the founder, who has 15 years of expe3rience in providing these types of services. Still, there aren’t any specifics about the guarantees they mention or the promises they make. Based on my experience and the things I have read, they don’t really guarantee quality.

Quality of Ordered Product

I know that the Yourcvconsultant guarantees are unreal because I’ve experienced some issues when ordered my package. I picked the Skype CV package since it included most products requested by job seekers. For the price I paid, I received a very low and unsatisfactory quality.

The CV and cover letter were poorly formatted and disorganized, even worse than the old CV I sent. The LinkedIn makeover was not actually a makeover since they changed a total of two sentences. When I spoke to the professional via Skype as the offer stands, he didn’t seem very knowledgeable and did not provide me with any specifics of what they’ll do to improve my product.

Meeting of Deadlines

One of the good things that came with ordering here is that they met the deadline. This isn’t provided on the website for the package I requested, so I asked them – they said that the products will come in 5 days. I received them in 4 and a half, but since the quality was disappointing, I reached out and asked for a refund or a revision. I got none of these.

Key Takeaways

Your CV Consultant appears to be a good service when you check their prices and the range of services offered. But, when you learn about their bad reputation with customers, as well as their unprofessional support, you will reconsider buying from this company. They meet deadlines, but offer only selected services in the form of packages, so customers don’t get much choice in which products they wish to order. Despite what the site indicates, there aren’t real discounts offered on this site, either.
