Hi Andrew,

Thank you for requesting a FREE CV review from Total-CVs. I have given 
your CV a thorough appraisal. Please find the results set out below.

Your feedback is split into three key areas: layout, content and 
language. Each section has been given a score out of 10 and therefore a 
total score of 30.

Layout Score = 6/10

I felt that the layout was poor in places; improvements could be made by 
utilising the space more effectively, thus altering the length of the 
document to make it more user friendly. The rule of thumb is the shorter 

effectively as possible. I would also suggest making some areas stand 
out more to recruiters when they scan your CV. Using different fonts and 
separating some sections of the CV will help achieve this.

Content Score = 6/10

The content needs a bit of work in order to appeal to a recruiter and to 
work effectively with job boards and company automated application 
systems. I would also recommend that you sell yourself a lot more. Areas 

key achievements rather than just include job descriptions of previous 
roles. I would also emphasise the return on investment to the potential 
future employer and generally make the CV reflect your key skills and 
experience. After all this is what makes you different from everybody else!

Language Score = 7/10

Grammatically, there are areas of the CV that Total-CVs could improve 

important that these areas be improved if your CV is to be truly 
effective. Finally, we would edit some of the sentences to make your 
points come across in a shorter, sharper way.

Overall Score = 19/30

Overall, your CV could benefit from being professionally re-written to 
make you stand out from the crowd and improve your interview 
opportunities. Currently, I can see that your CV is not doing enough for 
you to achieve your goal of getting interviews. Your CV is unlikely to 
be performing well on job board searches or automated tracking systems 
(ATS) that are used by most employers to filter applications.

Some Key things to consider

The Office of National Statistics show that in the last 12 months the 
average number of job applications per vacancy has risen from 7 to an 
incredible 37! This means that there has never been a more important 
time to have your CV professionally written.

Our expert CV writers have the experience, the skills and the knowledge 
to make your CV stand out from the rest and get you in front of employers.
