Aren’t your CVs too expensive?

This is simply not the case. Our CVs are some of the most competitively priced CVs in South Africa. Most writing services charge a fee starting from R1000 per CV and up, and then you get the lot that charge you R35 a pop. Or better yet, free templates. But we offer 3 distinctively different products to choose from to suit your budget and needs. We understand that during these times money can be a problem, and that is why we have kept our prices affordable. A well designed professional CV will increase your chances of finding a job or climb the corporate ladder, and the benefits of finding employment will more than justify the cost of your brand new resume.

Remember it’s not only a CV, its the document that must communicate with recruiters and your potential future employer. You are competing with hundreds if not thousands of applicants out there, and you need to stand out. Included in our costs is more than 12 years worth of recruitment experience at your fingertips. You will get a direct line to your very own personal CV writer, and a clear professional copy will always be available at the press of a button, should you need it.

If I'm using a recruitment agency, does my CV's design still matter?

Yes it does. You still need to capture the attention and interest of the consultant working at the recruitment agency. Design and layout are always of utmost importance, whether you are working through an agency or applying directly to the company of your dreams. Make sure you stand out from the other applicants while also optimizing your ranking as determined by applicant tracking system (ATS) algorithms.

My current CV looks good, why am I not getting feedback from my applications?

At The CV Central, we understand the pressures associated with job hunting. The process can sometimes be tedious and demotivating. We understand the anxiety when recruiters don’t call back, or when that interview that “went so well” yield results. Sometimes even when your CV looks good, it simply does not return the results you expect. In a world flooded with CVs, you need to make sure yours stand out from the crowd. It needs to highlight your competencies and demonstrate your growth in the correct manner. Sometimes even the slightest spacing issues or smallest spelling mistakes can derail your efforts. There is no harm in having it assessed by professionals.

On the best looking CV, an incorrectly typed contact number or email address can cost you dearly. The Golden Rule is to double-check, and then check again.

Why use The CV Central?

At The CV Central we look deeper than just your CV. We promote growth paths and highlight your core competencies. We include your Top Skills and can custom make your CV to include a whole range of matrixes. One of our popular design elements include a Language Spectrum in a visual format for those of you who have mastered multiple languages, which is a sure sign of intelligence, but people neglect to highlight that fact.

We make sure your Qualifications and Awards are included. People underestimate the importance of awards and then forget to include that “Team Spirit Award” or worse, I have come across CVs where entire qualifications were missing. We identify gaps in information on your CV. Individuals neglect to record Promotions or “Team Leader” roles, and they need to show this in order to stand out from the crowd and get noticed.

The true value of our CVs is leveraged by more than 12 years of experience in the recruitment and selection sectors, and our ability to present the right information in such a way as to convey the targeted message to the person intended. This gives us an edge over other creative writers. Each individual CV is put through a rigorous screening process to ensure zero errors on completion. We give professional advice on each CV and it’s content thereof.

Can’t I just make use of a free template and make my own CV?

A good looking CV IS important, but our service covers more than mere aesthetics, given our experience in the Recruitment sector.

Keep in mind, like with some things in life, you are better off using a professional person’s services than going at it alone. You wouldn’t use unqualified person to do the job of a doctor or a lawyer, so why take a chance on something that can determine your career path? With our competitively priced products, rendered by people with extensive experience in the recruitment industry, there is no reason not to consider our services. The price you pay for a new CV will be a mere fraction of your next salary at your new job.

Is it guaranteed that I’ll get a job if my CV is done by The CV Central?

While we cannot guarantee jobs, we can guarantee that your chances of landing an interview will significantly increase. As explained in the answers above, we know what recruiters and employers are looking for when it comes to CVs. We use our extensive knowledge gathered in the recruitment industry to format and present your CV to something that will draw a recruiter or an employer’s attention.

Sometimes I feel like a broken record, but people do not understand the importance of their CVs. Whether they are looking for a new job, or trying to climb the corporate ladder, it seldom happens that you manage to do that without a good looking resume.
Even if you are connected these days, the administrative bureaucracy dictates that at some point you do need to submit a CV.

Google, why is a CV important and you will find; “A completed CV aims to impress recruiters and is sent as an application to jobs adverts or as a speculative approach to prospective companies.

CVs are valuable and important because they are your first and maybe only direct communication with a potential employer. Presentation is KEY.”

So why do people neglect their CVs? For the same reason they constantly complain that they do not get that “Call back”.

All because people do not understand the importance of their CV design.
People forget that a well-designed CV significantly increases their chances of landing a job. With your CV you cannot afford to disappoint. Times are tough and many people are looking for work. There are jobs out there, but you won’t get a second chance to make a good first impression. Take Peter Pyper’s CV as an example, would you hire him on his ‘before’ or ‘after’ CV?

Did you know that recruiters spend an average of 2 seconds on your CV before they decide whether you are going on the ‘In’ or ‘Out’ pile? This means your CV needs to impress first round. You’ll need to bring your A-game. With our field tested designs we can proudly say we give our clients an advantage. Each CV is put through a rigorous screening process to ensure zero errors on completion. We give in-depth professional advice on each CV and content thereof.

Imagine getting 100’s of CVs across your desk daily. How would you choose who to interview? Obviously, the CVs that stand out, the ones that make you take notice, right? Like it or not, initially, ‘books’ are judged by their covers. Have a look at the ‘before’ and ‘after’ photos of Peter Pyper’s CV and ask yourself which one will be favourable in landing Peter the interview?

An excellent CV has the power to open doors. Your resume should describe your qualifications as well as your unique qualities. For you to stand out amongst other applications, you need to demonstrate your strengths and capabilities without being in the room.

An excellent CV grabs the attention of the reader; it sells your strongest skills and accomplishments.

An excellent CV communicates effectively, and most importantly it gets you noticed.

Now for a last look at the ‘before’ and ‘after’ photos of Peter Pyper. Who will you choose to interview?

With industry specific specialisations and skills matrixes, our CVs are engaging and stir interest wherever viewed. Our first design ‘The Professional’ made waves in New Zealand, with feedback from United Kingdom, Italy and USA pouring in.

With record unemployment rates and millions of job seekers, one simply cannot afford to send out a mediocre CV, and I don’t know how anyone can let themselves do it. In my long and prosperous career in the recruitment industry, I have come across some interesting CVs. The biggest issues still remain; spelling mistakes, spacing issues and design layouts, reminiscent of something originating in the 90s. We even still see some “frame era” CVs, which were quite popular with the airline industry in some countries back in the 80s.

Have your CV assessed with us. The assessment is FREE and we offer you a confidential, professional CV consulting, editing and writing service at an unbeatable price. Our closest competitor is about three times more expensive than us. Our process is simple and easy to navigate, as we are reachable on virtually all platforms.

The cost of your CV redesign with The CV Central is minuscule compared to what you can gain from it.
You get industry insight straight from the source, while the true value of our CVs is leveraged by more than 12 years experience in the recruitment and selection sectors, and our ability to present the right information and convey the targeted message to the person intended, giving us the edge over other creative writers.

Job markets are opened up on Monday 1 June 2020. You need to bring your A-game. Sectors are already advertising vacancies, everyone needs to be prepared.

We will help you be first in line for that new job.
