Be interview ready for Job Success!

CV needs updating? Or never needed a CV till now?

You’ve come to the right place!

Welcome! 

Sue Edwards, SJE Marketing UckfieldHi, I’m Sue, your local CV Writer, and Linkedin Writer. My office is in Uckfield, Sussex, but I welcome your enquiry wherever you are in the UK or overseas.  I’m here to help you be interview-ready and successful in your job search. Hire me and I will craft your CV and create or optimise your Linkedin profile, so that they really ‘sell you’, to give you the best chance of job success.

Preparation is vital to job success

If you’re job hunting, you’ll find that the process will require a good CV, whether it’s an email job application or an online one. If you have a document CV ready (in Word), even if you need to copy and paste the information, it makes the process so much quicker and easier.

If your CV needs work, or maybe you’ve never needed one till now, that’s where I come in. Asking me for professional help with your CV, means that you will have all the right tools and advice to make your job search successful. 

The Process and lead times

All the following information is detailed in full in the CV terms here.

The lead time from invoice payment is 7 working days (not including weekends or Bank Holidays). If you just require a CV review or edit, this can be achieved within 2 working days (depending on availability).

The process requires a desktop computer or laptop with a current version of Microsoft Word. A Mac, Ipad, IPhone, tablet, or any mobile phone alone will not work, sorry! 

Once we’re ready for our Zoom meeting, we will go through your CV in detail. If you can’t use Zoom, we will have a phone consultation instead. 

Please note: CVs for updating are only accepted in a Microsoft Word format (.doc).  I do not accept documents in pdf format.  

Why me?

Writing your own CV is probably one of the hardest documents to craft and get right. Selling yourself isn’t easy. Using a poor or ‘ok’ CV just won’t work. Ask me to help and we’ll create a CV that ‘sells’ you and results in invitations to interviews.

Why choose me? I have a friendly but professional approach to all my work, which will help to put you at ease, if that’s what you need. Unlike larger agencies, you will only deal with me and you will receive value for money. Larger agencies (I know through experience) only pay their CV writers a small commission (about 1/3rd of what you pay!), so their expertise is questionable. You will find London-based agencies expensive. Whereas feedback says I offer great value for money. 

  • With many years of experience in most industries and 100s (lost count!) of happy clients, I look forward to helping you too.  
  • New lower CV Prices:  based on complexity of your CV, particularly your career history and it’s current format. See my prices page for more info.
  • A friendly, flexible, professional approach, with attention to detail.  
  • Consultation –  your opportunity to talk to an expert.
  • Substantially increase your job success rate, vs doing your own CV.

HR experts say:

“Recruiters spend only 6-8 seconds reviewing a CV.” 

So, you can see why it’s so important to get your CV right. But with my help, we will do just that.   

CV for other uses

Sometimes you may be asked for a CV, for example when dealing with a bank. If you’re self-employed it often helps to have an up-to-date CV to hand. I do that too.  

Linkedin management UckfieldLinkedin is the next step, depending on how comfortable you are with being found and approached online. Stats say that over 91% of recruiters rely on Linkedin to glean more information about candidates like you, particularly for more niche and senior roles. If you do use it, but your profile is only basic and isn’t optimised, it won’t work. I do that too, let me help.
