How the Platinum CV Writing Service Works:
On receipt of your completed on or off line order and payment we send you an email confirming your order; this will be sent to the email address used for making an on line payment or as stated to us in an offline order. This email asks you to select the sector in which you work or wish to work and from your selection we assign a specialist, sector- specific CV Writer to undertake your order and arrange the first face to face discussion with your him / her. This will normally be at one of our centres, at your home, your office or another mutually convenient location.
It is quite common for the Platinum Package to be purchased for someone other than the person ordering; the confirmation email asks if the Service has been ordered for another person and if so requests the name and email address of the person for which a new CV will be constructed; we then make direct contact with this person.
At your discussion, the consultant will explore your credentials for the type of role sought - skills and experience, achievements, management style, motivations, preferred work culture and your objectives in seeking a new role. Particular emphasis will be placed on those attributes essential for your preferred role whether they be soft skills, wide ranging experience or hard technical capability. He / she will then outline the key messages likely to be the "building blocks" of your new CV and discuss these with you, modifying them as necessary until you are comfortable that they reflect the "real you". Depending on the type of role(s) you seek the consultant will also advise on whether it would be prudent to construct more than one version of your CV.
We prefer to limit discussions to a maximum of 1½ -2 hours and if your circumstances dictate that more time is required then a second meeting will be arranged.
Your CV will then be constructed and the first draft despatched to you normally within 1 day. It will have been fully optimised to ensure high visibility in CV databases, when used to apply on line for vacancies and when registering for on line "jobs-by-email" services. Your Consultant will explain the various procedured for using your CV on line. You should take some time to review your new CV and if possible ask someone who knows you well to also review it. Any comments or concerns you may have should be discussed with your consultant (usually by telephone) when you will jointly decide whether any amendments are required. Should a revision be necessary, this will be done immediately and despatched to you as a second draft. This process will continue until you are entirely satisfied with every aspect of your new CV and you are confident that the image it presents of you is accurate and portrays exactly what you wish to project to prospective employers.
If you wish, your CV will be posted to on line boards and CV databases, recruitment agencies and possibly employers relevant to the type of roles for which you wish to be considered. Your consultant will discuss this with you, explain the procedure and oversee the process should you wish to proceed. Some of the on line organisations provide facility for posting a covering message and your consultant will construct this, following the same procedure for approval by you as described above. Further covering letters (3 are included in the Platinum Service or as purchased separately) will be constructed in response to vacancy advertisements that you send to us and again the approval mechanism is as described above.
Hard copies of your CV and any covering letters constructed (on Conqueror white correspondence paper) will be provided on request and you may copy or use these as required. Electronic versions will be emailed to you in a format suitable for making on-line applications; you may use these as often as required and print from them as required. Should you at any time in the future order an Update of your CV then the electronic version as originally supplied to you should be used as the basis for the update. Please note that we do not retain files created on behalf of clients unless they specifically ask us to do so (see Privacy Policy).
The Platinum CV Writing Service is designed for Senior Managers and Directors, those seeking mid and senior level Public appointments, those seeking highly specialised technical roles and those with unusual career routes. Many people also choose the Platinum Package as they prefer face to face rather than telephone or email contact. The meetings can be used to discuss any aspect of gaining a new role or your career progression.
