All 5-star Trustpilot reviews in 2025 & 2026:
Winning CV's helped me get past AI CV Scanning! WCV's helped me set up my CV - I had a feeling the company wasn't doing well - so wanted to be ready. Roughly 3 weeks later it happened. Redundant. I could immediately start applying with my new CV. I immediately noticed good responses - a lot personally written which meant that my CV had got in front of someone, even from large Blue Chips with over 100 applications. Becky's version really punched through - and at interviews some of the elements pulled out from career and placed front and centre were mentioned. My CV seemed to be getting through and past AI and I can only put that down to Becky and the approach taken to laying out my CV. I cannot recommend Winning CV's services enough. Thanks!
★★★★★An excellent service. Becky was great & I felt she took the time to really understand my background, skills & achievements to build a great CV. I was struggling to get past the sift stage before, but now with Becky's advice & her re-write of my CV, I have a number of interviews for opportunities that I am excited to interview for.
★★★★★Phenomenal CV writer. I was struggling to condense 20 years of experience into two pages. Becky didn't just manage to do this, she created something incredible. She has this innate ability to delve deep into your professional self to create a jaw-dropping CV, LinkedIn profile and covering letter. Looking forward to putting it all to the test in the New Year. Thanks, Becky
★★★★★Becky is a CV wizardess! I needed help summarising a 20+ year career into two pages. Becky took the time to really understand my experience and pulled out the most important elements into an impressive summary that I could never have achieved on my own (or using AI tools - believe me, I tried!!!). It's given me a new sense of confidence, as I'd actually forgotten about many of my achievements, and Becky was able to draw them out through a thorough discovery process. I now feel ready to take on the next stage of my career at director or executive level - something I'd previously doubted my ability to do. Becky also overhauled my LinkedIn profile, which I'd never really taken the time to develop properly, and the engagement on my posts and profile has skyrocketed overnight. I've also already had conversations with recruiters who contacted me directly as a result of my LinkedIn profile.
★★★★★Engineering CV - 25 years experience. I found Becky extremely helpful and it worked! Job interview and offer from the first application. Incredibly proud of my CV, thank you Becky.
★★★★★Becky was great to work with and was thorough with her approach. She took the time to truly understand my diverse career history to strategically highlight the most relevant achievements and skills. Becky did this 2 different CV versions, targeted to 2 roles types.
★★★★★Brilliant Process and End Result. The whole process with Becky was a real pleasure, it was executed perfectly from initial call to final document. Each step was incredibly thorough and well thought through. Guiding me expertly through what she needed, she produced an end result that was absolutely spot on and I would absolutely recommend her to those looking to create a CV they can genuinely be proud of.
★★★★★My experience has been wholly positive. Based on an in-depth discussion session, my resulting CV is a real step forward. Clearly demonstrating my strengths, achievements and potential. This is a great service that I will relying on future and that I genuinely recommend to others.
★★★★★
