This week’s Feedback on Friday is from Briana. I was thrilled to hear of her success in finding her dream role (in a brand new career!) after arming herself with the right CV for the job.

I was very grateful to receive Adam’s feedback. It makes my heart happy to hear of customers’ success stories after arming themselves with a new CV. Have a look at what Adam had to say about his experience…

It’s my favourite day of the week again! This week the spotlight is on Christy-May. Here’s what she had to say about her experience…

How do you write your first CV, if you’ve got no work experience? Has this question been bugging you for a while? Me, too. Now you have the answer! This book will teach you to create your perfect first CV, even when you’ve had no work experience.

This week Dylan is in the spotlight. He had some very positive things to say about his experience of getting a new CV. He even had a life-changing career outcome! I’m so happy to hear about his success and to share his story with you.

Sick of your job? The end of the Tax Year is nigh! It’s that time of year again, when you’re starting to think “am I where I need to be in my career?”

This week, Prevania’s Feedback on Friday is a great example of my process. With a lot of customers, we know there’s gold in their work history, but sometimes it’s not clearly displayed on their CV. All their relevant and interesting experience is shrouded in rambling sentences. They may have buried the most important information on page 5 of their current CV. We can find so many small issues, any one of which could cause a recruiter to overlook you. That’s where I step in to

Decorate your body, not your CV! Your CV is not a work of art and should not be decorated. That means no illustrations, no fancy borders. Keep the coloured ink away. Stick to black and white only. Basically, no fussy stuff that will confuse CV scanning software, or make your potential employer cringe as they put your CV into the ‘no’ pile (before even reading it).

Wow! Just wow! I was honoured to read Luke’s kind and generous words, in regards to his recent experience of working with me on his brand new CV, cover letter, Indeed and LinkedIn.

They don’t really need to know what primary school you went to, or how many scout badges you got! Your work history only needs to cover the last fifteen years

Many people have approached me over the years with dreams of starting a new chapter in their life. Whether it’s a move to find work in a new country, or a complete career change in their home country. I’ve been honoured to help thousands of customers’ dreams come true.

This week Louise wanted to share her experience of working with me. How her new CV has given her a fresh confidence to go out and grab her new career opportunities. Here’s what she had to say…

You only need one CV for anywhere in the world. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Certainly don’t pay for different versions of your CV for different job applications in different countries. One good CV will get you a job anywhere, from a mining role in Middle Earth to a teaching position at Rydell High. When employers like what they see, you’ll be the one that they want.

This is life changing. Going from the stressful, non-gratifying continual grind of practicing law, back to my passion, living in the wilderness and exploring archaeological sites, pounding it out for 8 days, then enjoying my family for 6 days off. Working 6 to 7 months, then having 5 to 6 months off to spend with my family, relax, and travel.

I was honoured to be invited to talk on SABC News about the rise in South African emigration, since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. In my thirteen years of writing CVs I’ve seen a consistent rise in people looking to start a new life overseas. This is especially true of South Africans.

“Thanks Roz for doing such a great job with my resume. I got a lot of positive feedback, both in my home country and in Australia. I also managed to find a job, with my new resume, within a month of landing in Perth! Well worth the money!”

Whether your future lies in mining in Australia, banking in Canada, nursing in New Zealand, engineering in the UK, or anything anywhere else, you’ve found a trusted source. I will work with you to create the best shop window for your skills and experience.

This week we shine a spotlight on Irene. She was keen to share her positive experience with you. This makes myself and my small team very happy and excited! Would you like to be our next success story?

Always happy to hear from previous customers and see where your career is heading now. The new skills you’ve acquired! Then I write a new version of your CV focused on the new role. I’ll write you the new cover letter to get you noticed. Or give your LinkedIn profile a makeover to make you more attractive to your desired market (digital eyeliner also has to be replaced very two years, according to Bill Gates- who’s never been wrong about anything).

Feedback on Friday is where we like to share some of our happy customers’ success stories with you. Not meaning to blow the company horn...
