Advantages: Great service and a CV which works! Disadvantages: None
...had a CV written by The Fuller CV and have to say that I was amazed by the results! The consultant who rang we asked me lots of questions about my work experience and education and I was shocked that I had so much to say despite only being a graduate!! I began using the CV straight away and was so pleased to achieve an interview, and subsequently a job with my 1st choice company. The conversation I had with the consultant not only ensured a great ... ...help when it came to the interview stage as I had plenty of examples to use to sell myself to the interviewer. The consultation was not wasted with administration points such as DOB or address, instead it was all focused on adding value and highlighting achievements.
I found the service provided to be excellent right the way through the process and everyone that I spoke to seemed friendly and eager to help. The customer services team do a great ...

Advantages: Great idea Disadvantages: Rarely answer the phone, dont return your call, poor service
...found this website whilst searching the internet, they were offering a free CV review service which I thought was fantastic, and as I am looking for a new career, they could really come in useful.
I followed the steps and completed all my details on the online form, attached my current CV and recieved an email back from them with a customer ID number and a telephone number to call. I phoned the number and the line just rang and rang! Tried several ... ...Finally I got through a couple of weeks later, gave them my customer ID number as requested and was assured by them that someone would call me back to review my CV, 8 weeks have now passed and still no telephone call! Personally I dont think this is called a service at all! ...

...queue, I decided to take the next best offer, a CV review by email, costing £8.
I ordered it, paid for it and after a week I had to write to them again and remind them of my order.
What I finally received was a reply so general, that it could have been copied and pasted from any website with CV writing advice. No corrections on my CV, no recommendations, no feedback on the format and contents - just the usual 'your CV sells you, the employers only ... ...a bit saying that 'if the employers have to go through your date of birth, nationality etc... in the beginning of the CV they will lose interest before they reach your studies bla bla bla...'. Well, I mention some (not all) of these details at the very end of my CV.
I am convinced that they send out the same reply to everyone who asks for this service. I don't know how they rate when they make your CV from scratch, but don't pay them for a CV review, ...

Advantages: Fast and Excellent Services Disadvantages: None
My experience with the Fuller team has been fantastic. It is unbelievable.
Before my encounter with the team, I had a good CV. But after charting with them I realized a lot of things were missing and may hamper my chances and rate of success.
They arranged a consultant who gave me his full attention and excellent in my field of study. He was so concerned and genuinely eager to help. His attitude on the phone was as if we had met before. Once my ... ...old car totally overhauled by the famous West Coast Customs. They know how to extract and utilize the necessary pieces of information that makes me look attractive on two pages of paper.
My CV is now very attractive and I am 110% satisfied. When I compared my old and new CVs, the difference is absolutely great. If the difference between my old and new CVs was like the difference between 'six and half a dozen', I will not be giving the Fuller team ...

Within a few days, I received my CV and i could not beleive how different I looked on my own CV. But it gave me a huge confidence boost. As a test, i re-applied for several jobs and straight away I received an interview request for two of them whilst one of them responded that they had already turned me down.
After that positive feedback on my cv, ... ...i got an interview. During the itnerview, I was grilled about my CV. They asked me to talk through it and give examples, which I was able to do.
Needless to say (otherwise I woudln't be writing this review), I got offered the job and last Tuesday (1st of August), I started in my dream job. I can't thank the staff of The Fuller CV enough. They really did help boost my career. Thank you Paula and the chap who initially gave me advice on my CV. ...

After completing a brief registration process, you have two options to obtain your CV review, either by a phone call where you will speak with one of their consultants, or you can have it emailed to you subject to an 'adminstration charge'. I chose the review by email option at a cost of £9.73.

In my opnion the review supplied was a genric or standard response - something other reviewers have noted. It said use action words, sell yourself. The usual pyschobable. The problem I have is that my C.V did this already, for example it noted I had secured a contract of x amount per year. Also my CV already used a lot of the action words the reviewer advised, so in short it suggested nothing new. Had it for example, ...

...a refresh I went to the Fuller CV website for some advice. There was plenty of information there and on their YouTube channel too. I decided to redo my CV on my own first (based on the free advice) and then send it through for a free CV review. What a mistake! My CV was completely ripped apart... told that I wasn't defining achievements when I clearly was, had to argue about my profile until the Fuller CV rep finally admitted it was a really good ... ...to win business but by the end of that I felt so low and down that I really thought I never would get a new job with that CV.

...be interested in. I called the phone number only to find that it wasn't a job at all - it was the Fuller CV!!! It was simply a dishonest cold call designed to trick me into calling them. The person on the end of the phone made no apology for this but launched into a CV hardsell. He said he had my CV in front of him and it was very poor. I would never get a job using it. My only hope was to spend several hundred pounds on one of their CVs! This person ... ...they get my CV in the first place? I think it must have been the 'leading job site'. The person on the phone wouldn't tell me - but that can be the only conclusion I can draw. I don't remember being asked when I registered. What an awful money-making scam between the two of them! ...

Advantages: Prompt and keen to assist Disadvantages: Slightly o the expensive side
Overall the Fuller CV process has been impressive. Having submitted my CV for a free opinion, they got back to me within hours and were very helpful. I opted for a complete re-write of my CV by a consultant but was not pressurised into going for this option at all. Yes, the costs are rather on the high side but if it gets results then its worth it. I had a lenghty telephone conversation two days later wit a consultant who already had a copy of my ... ...the new and much improved CV. There was nothing new factual contained within it but it was laid out with 'buzz' words being easy to see by an employer. Also, a couple of minor errors the consultant had made but that may have been misunderstandings on the phone but asy for me to correct.
Early days about success but I have started to submit the new CV to a number of companies. My view is that my old CV got me no interviews at all so if I only get ...

I have used the Fuller CV service to review my CV and also to look at my covering letter. My problem was that I had far to much to say, and indeed my CV was overloaded with information. I was telephoned by their consultant in my field at exactly the time I requested and given a full hour of advice and discussion. In just a few days from my original contact with the firm I had a completely revised CV in my inbox. The covering letter was also much ...

The free CV review is just to tell you how bad your CV is. Once booked you cannot cancel without a penalty!

If you speak too much during that hr they tell you you are wasting your booking time.
