How it works
Feel first, then edit.
A CV goes wrong when it's written from anxiety — trying to cover everything, please everyone, and give no reason to say no. The fix isn't more words. It's knowing what you're actually claiming, and making that claim well.
The method
How I read your CV
- 01
As a hiring reader
Fast, skimming, slightly impatient — the way it's really read. Where does attention drop? What's unclear in six seconds?
- 02
As your advocate
Slowly, generously, asking what each line is trying to say. What's the judgement, the scale, the result that's been left off?
- 03
As an editor
Cutting, sharpening, reordering. Every line earns its place or goes. The strongest evidence moves to where the eye lands.
What I believe
A CV is a document of judgement, not tasks
Anyone in your last role could list the same responsibilities. What they couldn't do is your particular version of the job — the calls you made, the messes you sorted, the trust you were given and why.
That's what a reader is buying. My job is to find it in what you've done and get it onto one clean page, in language that sounds like you on a good day.
The pressure of a job search brings you to the water. Something clearer has to carry you across.
The point
You leave with a plan, not just feedback
Feedback tells you what's wrong. A plan tells you what to do next. Every review ends with a short, ordered list — the changes that matter most, first.
