Welcome to our web-site detailing information regarding an incredible Cover Letter Writing Service in Colchester. We’re delighted to be able to show off our amazing Cover Letter Writing Service to job seekers all over the globe. The benefits of a cover letter are not well understood by most people looking to gain employment. If you would like more information about this service, please click here. 

A cover letter isn’t just an introduction, it is a great opportunity to expand on points that you want to make to a prospective employer and in some ways is more of a sales document than the Resume. The Cover Letter should not be confused with the profile or career profile on the Resume.

If you are emailing both a Cover Letter and a Resume to a potential employer then it is absolutely vital that you do not repeat yourself unnecessarily as you will lose the opportunity to sell yourself if you are not careful.

Our Cover Letter Writing Service includes:

• A brief consultation to agree the objectives of the Cover Letter either as part of the Resume writing process or separately depending on your situation.

• A Professional Cover Letter tailored to the job application of your choosing, either speculatively or specifically (we can create the document in such a way to cover both eventualities).

• Tailoring specific benefits that you can offer the company, introducing you to them and highlighting your achievements, skills, etc.

• Incorporation of a call to action encouraging the employer to email.

• Writing in the time we agree.

Meet one of our Resume writing Experts

Glenn Hughes is one of our Resume writing experts. He is far too modest to say this about himself so perhaps you may want to read what some of his customers have written about him:

Hi Glenn, Thank you so much for getting this done with such short notice. I really appreciate it. Thanks, Lauren.

Hi Glenn, I have two interviews this week one on Monday another in Wednesday. Let’s see what feedback they supply. My wife will email her achievements. Positive feedback on Friday too

Hi Glen. Thank you ……………..I got the job. First job interview in 17 years, got through to phone interview and then at HQ in London for further interviews and presentations.

 Glenn used to be a main board director of one of the largest food companies in the UK before deciding to start his own business and become involved in the recruitment sector. Currently the Resume Doctor at Pitman Training South Wales, many would consider Glenn to be a Resume writing expert. The testimonials you see above were really taken at random from many that he has got and he can help you as well.

 If you are looking for a new or better role that using a Resume writing expert can definitely give you the edge over your competition. There are so many inferior services out there that you certainly do owe it to yourself to give you the very best chance of getting an interview for the role that you are looking to land. Our Resume writing specialists can definitely help you.

Professional CV Writing Services

Why Professional Resume Writing Services? There is no standard, anywhere in the world where CV’s or resumes are assessed according to a single, standard value. So, what makes a Resume editing service professional?

The simple fact is that the primary job of the Resume is to get you interviewed, nothing more, nothing less. If a Resume gets you into an interview then it has worked and it surely is my definition of professional. If a Resume does not get you interviewed, then it has not worked, plain and simple. Of course, you need to get your Resume out there to all the recruitment companies and potential employers that you can. Otherwise, having a professional CV services business like us to write your CV is a waste of effort and hard earned cash.

One definition of the term professional that I quite like is:” Engaged in a specified activity as one’s main paid occupation rather than as an amateur”.

Really? Professional CV Writing Services?

There is a reason why our professional Resume writing services are successful and no small part of it is because we do this for a living. If we are not successful, then people will not be satisfied.

Specialist Marketing Resume Writing Service Colchester

Marketing is one of the areas where some people’s views on the presentation of the Resume differ markedly. Marketeers are by their nature artistic individuals and by far the biggest mistake that we see in a Marketing Resume is that people believe that they have to be artistic in the layout and presentation of their Resume.

Art has a place

People reading your Resume need to be impressed rapidly for all the right reasons. There is a hugebig difference between a portfolio and a Resume. A portfolio is the best place to highlight all areas of your creativity and can be used in all manner of creative ways, highlighting publications, videos, press releases, advertisements, etc.

A Resume needs to highlight the value that your creativity has delivered for the organisations that you have worked for. In the end, people employ marketeers to increase the sales and margin of their products and services. creativity for the sake of creativity has no place on a Resume.

Why a dedicated Marketing Resume Writing Service?

Having seen and reviewed many CVs for people who were experts but not being successful in finding their dream role, we decided to spend some time and researchedthe reasons why marketeers were failing with their Resume. The main single reason was that whilst a good number of people were very good at selling or marketing services for others, they were not able to market themselves.

Our Marketing Resume writing Service

We now focus on writing CVs for people looking for roles in marketing, from Marketing Directors through to Marketing Assistants, we can help. Why not call and have a discussion about how we can help?

CV Services, are they any Good?

Buying our professional & proven will ensure that you will get interviewed. We have written hundreds of CVs for job seekers since we started out editing CVs for a living and as far as we know every single one has been successful.

By successful, we mean that people got interviewed or got the job they wanted (for example, got in to University) and didn’t have to be refunded. In some cases (two in total), we refunded all or part of the cost of the service as we couldn’t meet the expectations of the customers that used our service.

There’s nothing more annoying than having spent ages (even years) crafting a Resume that you truly believe will get you interviewed, only to then put on the online job boards and have it gather dust as no-one contacts you for interview.

You feel as if you’ve failed and the seeds of disbelief start to grow in your brain as you question your value and wonder if you will ever get the role that you really want.

Up until now the only solution for getting through to the interview was to either get a professional HR colleague to write your Resume or to get your boss to write your Resume for you.

The problem with these options is that professional HR people who really know how to create a Resume are hard to find, and even if you do manage to find anyone willing to help you out, you’ll be letting everyone in your company know that you are looking for a new job.

That’s why right now, I’m happy to share with you my Resume writing service that is guaranteed to get you interviewed. I know that may sound unbelievable, but soon you’ll see how it all works, so please just keep reading.

We leave nothing to chance so we re-write as necessary, ensuring that spelling, grammar and punctuation is absolutely perfect and most importantly ensure that the UCAS personal statement leaves the best possible impression in the mind of the reader.

We create the UCAS personal statement as if it was being written for ourselves or one of our family- absolutely nothing is left to chance and every single effort that we can bring to the statement writing is brought and then some.

We may ask you for additional information if your content is light. For example: Have you been recognised in public, privately or sought out for praise in the past? Did you do voluntary work, help people in vulnerable situations, help a neighbour or look after an older family member?

Your UCAS personal statement editing service

We help you get an interview or offered a place at University through:

• The removal of incorrect or inappropriately applied spelling, punctuation and grammar throughout the entire document.
• Making certain that capitalisation and sentence construction is correct throughout the document and that the flow of writing is easy on the eye and will make maximum positive effect on the reader.
• Re-writing all text as necessary, reducing the amount of words in each sentence without making the meaning too brief.
• Creating a “tone” of writing that is consistent throughout the document and conveys the right impression of the applicant.
• Making certain that the whole document hangs together as a whole and relates a story rather than simply being unconnected sentences.

The finished document will have taken into account current best practices that are working today and have delivered results for applicants’ UCAS personal statements. For example, we will:

• Write an interesting, engaging and above all memorable introduction.
• Make certain that the right amount of space has been allocated to each element of the UCAS personal statement and that priority is allowed for those points of most impact.
• Sell you to the University as a qualified and motivated student that will bring value to the University and become a successful ambassador for the University later in life.
• Explain your choice of course, what you are planning to gain from it and explore possible career choices resulting from successful completion of your course.
• Above all, highlight your very best qualities and give you the very best chance possible of getting an interview or offered a place at the University to study your chosen course(s).

Your UCAS personal statement order will be e-mailed to you in the time that we promised with a detailed report/ critique explaining the changes that we have made to your UCAS personal statement and outlining the reasons why we have done so.

Changes will be made in line with the package you purchased and we 100% guarantee that you will be delighted with the resulting UCAS personal statement. If you’re not delighted, we’ll do everything we possibly can to ensure that the finished UCAS personal statement is perfect.

Over the last few CV clinics that I’ve done, there has been a tendency for people to want interview advice as well as having their CV reviewed and revamped.

It may be that in those meetings, the message is getting through and the CV seems to be working for people.

The only purpose of the CV is to get you interviewed. If you are qualified for the roles that you are targeting and aren’t getting interviewed then the problem is the CV or how you are getting the CV out to employers and recruiters.

Before the interview

Clearly it is vital to research the company that you might potentially be joining and there is a mountain of info available about that so I will not be talking about it in this article.

Arrive at the interview at least 15 minutes before you need to. It is as easy to be there early as be late so it makes good sense that being on time makes sense. I’ve often found that the meeting before the meeting, i.e. the conversations that you can have before the interview starts are way more useful than the interview itself.

While you are waiting to be seen, take yourself away somewhere completely private like the toilet and perform the “Sarnoff Squeeze”. Simply search out this on the internet and you will find that those feelings that were bothering you will have disappeared. It’s a useful trick and it certainly does work.

In the interview

Remember that the primary reason why you are in the room in the first instance is that the company has to employ someone. It might as well be you and not anyone else. The interview is an artificial environment and in many cases, the interviewer will be equally nervous.

Answering the question they ask you

When someone asks a question, they usually want an answer and preferably an answer to the question that was asked. It makes sense then that answering the question is the correct thing to do. So many interviewees waffle on in interviews and avoid answering the question. From the interviewer’s perspective, this is frustrating and annoying so please do not do this.

The CV is almost redundant in the interview, but it is sensible to bring a couple of copies of your CV so that you have one to hand and also have one for the interviewer to read if they need one.

What’s the real reason for the question?

Interviewers ask  questions during an interview for many reasons. They do not just ask a question for the sole purpose of filling space in the interview. It makes sense then that thinking about why they are asking a specific question will help you to give a more relevant answer.

If you’re in the Colchester area and looking for a new or better role then we’d love to help you out. Just complete the short form above, attach your current Resume and a professional Resume writer will record a short video giving you useful and accurate personalised feedback and email it to you.

A Free Resume Review will give you an amazing advantage over those people you are fighting with for that dream role.

You will find out precisely what is wrong with your Resume and also precisely what you need to do to get it right. Stop worrying about what is wrong with your Resume, get a free Resume review and you will be certain.

Accurate feedback is such an important thing in almost everything that we do. Getting honest feedback regarding your Resume is difficult, especially if a friend or family member created the Resume for you and you don’t want to offend them.

Getting a Resume Review makes perfectsense but be aware of many so-called professional Resume writing services companies that just use their supposedly useful service as a tool to sell you on their service

Need a Resume Review?

Many Resume writing services utilise a generic cut and paste method for their Complimentary Resume Review service and just look at the mistakes that are present in the Resume, cut out standard and pre-written  answers and suggestions that have been professionally written with expert sales copy to undermine you and convince you to use their service. Our review service is totally unique. We record a personal Free Resume Review using video which goes through your Resume in detail and is personal to you and you alone.

Having exact and accurate feedback, coupled with helpful tips to show you exactly how to fix the mistakes gives you the very best opportunity to polish off your Resume and give yourself the best opportunity to be interviewed.
