About The CV Store

Written by the company

Founded by Lee Tonge in 2001, The CV Store has grown year-on-year, building relationships with individuals, corporate clients and recruitment companies globally. Our main objective was then, and still is today, to provide industry leading CVs and cover letters, coupled with an extensive library of articles to help you create and / or improve your own CV.

Whether you’re already at the top, or aiming to get there, a powerful CV in a competitive marketplace is essential. Knowing what to include and how to capture those all-important assets that will get you onto the shortlist are common problems. Lee and his in-house team of Professional CV Writers will help maximise your chances of reaching the shortlist.

We will not claim to increase your interview chances by using unsubstantiated figures that cannot be backed-up. Instead, we provide each client with free and ongoing support for one year. Throughout this year, you’re welcome to contact us for updates to your CV and even tweaks to align your documents with specific job applications.

No pricing gimmicks, hidden fees or 'hard-sell'. We will not charge extra for Consultations, or try to up-sell pointless products. Our CV writing fees are fully transparent, and you’ll never pay a penny more.

No scare tactics. A lot of CV writing companies offer automated free reviews with stock content aimed at shocking you into parting with your cash. Instead, all our reviews are performed manually. If we don’t think you need to spend money, we’ll tell you.

Fantastic experience

Fantastic experience, I was extremely happy with the service I received. The CV store was regularly in touch throughout and My CV is in so much better shape than it was previously. Not only this but the other services provided around Linkin and cover letters have given me so much more confidence going forward. Thoroughly recommend.

Don’t even hesitate to use this amazing company

I was submitting my CV and getting no reply at all. I was made aware of the ATS which reads CV’s and rejects them before being seen by a human. I decided to use a professional company. Read reviews of the cheaper ones and realised you need to pay a decent amount to get it done properly. This company received good reviews so I decided to use them. From the start I was guided through what would be done and my questions were answered immediately. I even was offered continued guidance after the CV was written and sent. Lee Tonge was amazing. Within a day or so I started to get replies and I now have a job after a few months of rejected ones offered that was not suitable. I can’t recommend them enough. I would not have landed this job without my CV being done. If you are contemplating a company don’t hesitate to use this one. I waited to see if I would actually get a job using them before I submitted this review in order to give a full account of the process. I am so pleased I saw the reviews on this site, they l get good feedback for a reason.

Lee and the CV store are the best in…their field!

Lee and the CV store are the best in the field. Lee provides a prompt individualised service and has a knack for understanding your unique needs when it comes to writing and presenting CV's. I have already referred a friend who has a completely different background. She was suitably impressed and her words to me were, "Lee, wow, what a find he is!"

Very happy with prompt service received, my existing cv has been transposed and lifted upto a new level with outstanding quality. It's no trouble at all to have updates amendments or changes made.

Supportive and good CV

Lee is a very supportive person and is willing to answer my questions as well as my queries (quick response, too!). I have never thought that my CV could be this good thanks to him! Hopefully will get some interviews from some companies and get accepted for a job soon thanks to the CV that Lee has helped me to write :)

Would thoroughly recommend

I was recommended The CV Store by a friend and had to stop and really consider if I could warrant spending the cost on updating my CV, having just been made redundant.

I am so pleased that to decided to go ahead after my initial free feedback on my CV. Really practical, honest feedback that I hadn’t considered, despite my decades working in HR.

A great service and ideal for people like me who have looked so many times at their CV that eventually can’t see the woods for the trees and need a fresh approach.

I would not hesitate to recommend the CV store, I am really pleased with the service and outputs that I received.

Made a few errors

My CV is definitely better than what it was before, and The CV Store is clearly good at wording your experiences in a way that sounds professional and impressive. However, I noticed a few grammatical errors in my cover letter, which is disappointing considering the price I paid. In addition, there were a few errors on my CV which weren't on my original CV, i.e. switching my native and other language around to say that the latter was native instead.
