Best CV editing guide or service?

Ok guys, I think my CV stinks because I am getting NO RESPONSES from like a 100 job applications.

Can anyone recommend a CV review or editing service to make sure that my CV isn't letting me down?

Thanks :biggrin:
TSR have people who can help you. They usually have CV helper written next to their name. You can PM me it and I can take a look, if you want (or completely give you a template to redo it).

My credentials: I've been to like 50x CV/interview skills workshops :K::lol: and mine landed me a job this summer.

Here, have a look at mine:

I have, but I update it to include recent ones. The second experience on that list is from 2012-2014, if you hadn't noticed. Also I've just finished A levels so I'm still in education, so I don't think extensive work experience is expected. Useful nonetheless to develop competencies.

Try Resume Rebrand. They've done a fabulous job on several of my friends/family's CVs. Despite the name, they are in the UK.

Why don't you just have a 2 page CV, then you can fit more work on to it.

Because no-one, including myself wants to read a 2 page CV from an 18 year old.
