Legal CV Writing Quill

Legal CV Writing Service

 

A CV is not just a CV, it is your very own professional marketing document. Given recruiters spend on average 6 seconds reading a CV, you do not have long to grab their attention.

It is important to ensure it is structured in a way that is easy to follow with the essential “good stuff” in the right place and at the right time as they progress through your CV to get that impact. 

Many people make the mistake of setting out a full chronology of everything they have done since entering education. There is, however a psychology behind CV writing – it needs to be selective and tactful, which is where I come in.

 

Three simple steps:
 

1. Purchase Your Chosen Service

Upload your existing legal CV or draft covering letter / job application form

2. Contact 

I will get in touch with you by email to clarify any matters and book a telephone consultation if required

3. First Draft

I aim to send a first draft to you within 7 – 10 business days depending on your chosen service. Thereafter we can review, amend and adjust your new legal CV until you are 100% satisfied.

If you are an aspiring or experienced legal professional and have any questions about my legal CV writing service, get in touch.

I am more than happy to give you a call and run through any questions you have before making a start on your new legal CV and / or cover letter, just let me know when you place your order and I will contact you to arrange a convenient time. The fee includes unlimited revisions.

I have an urgent deadline can you do a quick turnaround?
I have a set time frame of 7 business days for a first draft – I do not offer any expedited services. Please only order if you are happy with the turnaround time.
How does the CV writing process work?
CV writing is a joint effort – I need the information from you to be able to gear the CV towards the type of job / role you are after. The more specific you are, the better I can tailor the CV. Regarding your past experience, even from different industries, I will revamp and reword where I think appropriate to give the CV more impact but you will need to review and ensure what is written accurately reflects your roles and responsibilities. I may also need further information from you such as achievements and highlights from your roles.

I will send you a first draft to review, and from there we can make any amendments and adjustments as you see fit.

Can you draft a cover letter for me?
I do not draft cover letters from scratch for clients. This is because the reason you want to work for a particular firm or why you decided to pursue law in the first place is personal to you. I can however review a cover letter you have already drafted and make comments / recommendations for improvement. I request that you send me a copy of your draft cover letter in word format so that I can make notes, comments and or track changes to the document directly for you to consider and incorporate.
Do you prepare CVs for international use or UK only?
The legal CVs I prepare are based on the general standards / requirements expected in the UK legal job market, which I have been trained in. That said, you can still order a CV (or cover letter review) from me if you are abroad, then make any adjustments according to your local requirements. For example, in some countries it is standard for CVs to contain a photo of the person, date of birth, nationality etc. These can easily be incorporated and do not affect the content / wording of the CV, which is the important part.
I am a Law Student - can you help me?
Yes! Helping law students and graduates secure entry level positions, training contracts or paralegal positions is one of my passions. I have been there, I know how tough it is – so that is why I want to use my industry expertise to better your chances of securing an interview with a stand-out legal CV!
Why should I use your legal cv writing service?
Because I have all the credentials to back-up / support my offering: I am a qualified legal professional, career coach and experienced CV writer. I know not only what law firms and or legal employers expect to see in a legal CV but also understand the psychology behind CV writing in general.
