CV Help Basics: About Our Professional CV Writing Services
 How Do Your Professional CV Writing Services Work?
There are five stages in our document development process. They are: assessment, consultation, construction, confirmation, and conclusion. These customer-focused milestones help ensure total satisfaction with your order. The document development process is exclusive to our Bronze, Silver, Gold and Emerald Packages.
How Long Do I Have to Wait Until the First Electronic Draft of My CV is E-mailed to Me?
Our usual turnaround time is ten working days from receipt of payment and submission of your details into our CV Creation Centre. However, you can fast-track your order for five-day delivery via our CV Express offering.
Do You Provide Any Kind of Discounts?
Yes. Discounts appear on our website from time to time. Our free monthly newsletter also contains special offers that are exclusive to our subscribers, and which are not made available to the general public.
Making a Choice: Advice on How to Select Your CV Package
What is the Difference Between Your Bronze, Silver, and Gold Package CVs?
In terms of quality, there is no difference—irrespective of the Package you select, uncompromising excellence is guaranteed. Only the amount of time allotted to the construction of your CV, and the seniority of the writer who will be responsible for its completion, differs from one option to another.
How Do I Know Which Package Is Right for Me?
Generally speaking, Bronze is perfect for school leavers, graduates, service staff, and skilled labourers. Silver is
ideal for the majority of job seekers across all industry sectors. Gold is reserved primary for managers, technical experts, and those in highly specialised fields.
What Are the Tangible Benefits of a Gold Curriculum Vitae Package?
Ordering a Gold Package permits us to assign one of our two most established curriculum vitae specialists to your order, triple the number of hours they spend on your CV and, where needed, create supplementary data sheets to augment and enhance the main body of your presentation.
I'm a Manager—Is a Gold CV Package the Most Appropriate Option for My Needs?
That depends. If you are a middle/senior manager, executive, director or consultant possessed of a complicated career history, then you will need to purchase our Gold offering.
If you are a junior manager or have limited experience within the management function, you will not need to use our Gold Package options—a Silver Package will suffice.
I Operate in a Highly Technical Industry—Is a Gold CV Package Right for Me?
Yes—especially if you work in the engineering or pharmaceutical sectors.
I'm an IT Worker—Does It Make Sense for Me to Purchase an Gold CV Package?
Perhaps. If you are an IT professional operating in areas such as software engineering, systems administration, hardware configuration, or other disciplines involving a significant degree of technical expertise, then a Gold CV Package is an essential purchase.
If you are a web designer, graphic designer, or someone lacking practical experience, then the Silver Package is all you need.
Payment Options—Secure Online and Offline Transactions
How Safe is Your Online Payment System?
Very. When placing an order, your credit card details are processed by PayPal, one of the world's most trusted online payment services. The security of your information, transactions, and money is 100% guaranteed. More information concerning this payment system is available in our Privacy Statement.
I'm Not Convinced—Can I Pay for My Order Another Way?
Yes. You may supply us with your credit card details via phone, fax, e-mail or post. If you would prefer to pay by cheque or postal order instead, we will send you a Pro Forma invoice. When we have received and verified your payment, we will issue you with a Transaction ID, which you can use to access our CV Creation Centre.
Why Do You Ask for Payment in Advance?
Simple: because this policy helps us eliminate bad debts, and keeps our costs to a minimum. We then pass these savings back to you, the customer, by offering superior, tailor-made curriculum vitaes at an affordable price.
CV Questionnaire—In the Creation Centre or in Your Home
What Is the CV Creation Centre?
The CV Creation Centre houses our comprehensive online questionnaire.
Where Is the CV Creation Centre? I Can't Find It!
The CV Creation Centre is not directly accessible from the main CV Ireland website, nor can it be located through our search engine. You will be sent to the Creation Centre immediately following your purchase of a CV Package. If you are not brought there automatically, please click 'Return to CV Ireland' on the final PayPal payment page.
Still unable to access the CV Creation Centre? Simply contact us and we will be delighted to solve your difficulty.
Do I Have to Complete Every Section of the Questionnaire?
No. You can avoid filling out whole sections of the form by supplying us with a copy of your current CV—but you will still need to address those sections of the questionnaire that your curriculum vitae does not cover.
I Don’t Like Online Forms—Can I Get the Questionnaire by Post?
Yes. However, you should bear in mind that this method of information gathering may delay the creation of your curriculum vitae. We highly recommend the CV Creation Centre for its convenience and obvious speed benefits.
I've Filled in the Questionnaire—How Will You Safeguard my Personal Information?
We accept, store, and utilise your personal details in strict compliance with the Data Protection Acts. Please read our Privacy Statement for a more comprehensive overview of how we protect your personal information.
Technical Solutions—Newsletter and E-mail Attachments
If I Sign Up for Your Newsletter, Will I Ever Be Able to Get Off Your Mailing List?
Yes! You can remove yourself from our mailing list by clicking on the unsubscribe link which appears at the end of every communication we dispatch—and resubscribe later at a time that suits you.
You Sent My CV to Me as an E-mail Attachment, But I Can’t Open It—Now What?
In Outlook or Outlook Express, perform the following actions: Click 'Tools', followed by 'Options', navigate to the 'Security' tab, and uncheck the box marked 'Do Not Allow Attachments to be Opened that Could Potentially Be a Virus.' Voila! Your CV should now open without complaint.
I Don’t Own Microsoft Word—Can I Still View the Word Version of My CV?
Yes. Just visit the Microsoft Download Centre for a free copy of their 2003 Word Viewer.
Hosting Benefits for Basic and Elite Website Customers
I'm a Basic/Elite Website Customer—What Control Do I Have Over My CV Website?
You have full control regarding the text of your online curriculum vitae: minor updates are free of charge, and major updates are now available via our significantly discounted Package Renewal service.
As an Elite Website customer, you are also entitled to 20 megabytes of disk space upon request, to which you may upload anything you like (excluding defamatory, hateful, illegal, and obscene content) via FTP. Once your first year of hosting has expired, you will be afforded the opportunity to renew your account for an additional 12 month period. The cost of renewal is €99, and covers both your domain name and space within our servers.
Basic Website customers may also renew their hosting accounts after the first year, for a special price of €49. This reduction recognises the fact that such plans do not come with disk space, a domain name, or FTP access.
