Can anyone recommend a professional CV writing service after redundancy?

[Bugsy73]

Hi,
My DH is shortly going to be made redundant. He's applied for loads of jobs and has had loads of rejections. He has a CV but I don't think it meets todays criteria - having to give examples rather than bullet pointing everything. He's finding it really difficult to know how to improve it. Can anyone recommend a company or service that will write it for him? Is that even a thing?

ask for outreach support as part of his redundancy package.

Honestly? I'd ask AI for help with a structure/draft.

I did this recently for something similar and it was brilliant- make sure you give ChatGPT as much detail as possible and then tweak to avoid AI giveaways.

It audio makes additional suggestions and redraft of tone. I thoroughly recommend it.

I was made redundant last year and used ChatGPT to update my CV. And also to then tailor it specifically tongue jobs I was applying for, as well as drafting the cover letters. It worked really well, I was v impressed

tongue jobs? 👅

I got it as part of redundancy package. LHH was
the company! Cv writing people didn’t get the type of role I’m in and haven’t got a Single interview with the abbreviated one the created! Have reverted back to my old one with bulleted lists and am getting more interviews so it might be it’s just a tough market out there!

Don't dismiss the abbreviated CV. Is there anything you can take from it, for example the profile, and supplement it with more detail for your work history.?

What sector is your DH in? Maybe someone here can help?

Thanks to everyone for the responses, DH is in accountancy.
He has a coach for the next month but only has half hour a week. She has tried to tell him how to improve the CV but he is finding it bewildering.
He's 54yrs old and I think its just very different from the last time he had to apply for a job, and clearly alot harder.

How old is the coach?
The recruiter in a company might be nearer your DH's age and the career coach might be younger.

I found that when the younger generation came up, the job ads started asking for a 1st or 2:1, which would rule out most a few years older than me because they had HNDs that were industry-specific and decades of knowledge.

Accountancy is probably different but I've met plenty of people who don't know the difference between an FCA and an FCMA.

(I'm in an industry where many would have done an HND/apprenticeship not gone to university but there are people with PhDs too.)

Find a role he might be interested in and put it into chatgpt/ Gemini etc asking it to generate a cv for the role using some key facts about him. This will give him an idea of the style required.

Most accountancy CVs at that level list responsibilities rather than results. That is usually what stops responses coming in.
I do free CV reviews for people in this situation. He sends it over, I come back with the three specific things I would fix. No catch.
