Your CV, Rewritten to Get Past the Filter

Applying for months and hearing nothing back is rarely about your experience. Your CV is read twice before a human decides anything: first by software that pulls it apart into fields, then by a recruiter giving it a few seconds. I rebuild it to survive both.

Send the CV you are already using. No questionnaire to fill in first.

Your CV is read twice, and fails at different places

Most advice online treats these as one problem. They are not. A CV can sail through the software and still lose the recruiter, or be perfectly readable to a human and never reach one.

01

The parser

Applicant tracking systems break your file into fields: employer, title, dates, skills. Anything it cannot place is quietly dropped before anyone sees it.

  • ✕Two columns, text boxes or tables that scramble the reading order
  • ✕Job title inside a graphic or header, invisible to the parser
  • ✕Dates written four different ways in one document
  • ✕Skills named one way by you, searched another way by us

✓What I do: rebuild the file so every field lands where the system expects it, and name your skills the way the search actually looks for them.

02

The recruiter

If it gets through, it lands in a pile. The first screen is fast and mostly about one question: can I tell what this person actually did?

  • ✕A list of responsibilities copied from the job description
  • ✕Technologies listed, but no sign of what you built with them
  • ✕Scale missing: team of 3 or 300, hobby project or production
  • ✕Gaps and short stints left unexplained, so they look worse than they are

✓What I do: turn each entry into what you delivered and at what scale, and give the gaps a line so they stop being a question mark.

Why me: I am a senior IT recruiter. I read CVs like yours every working day and I am the person deciding which ones get opened. I am not writing from a template of best practice; I am telling you what makes me stop scrolling.

What the review covers

Every point comes back quoted from your own CV, with the line as it is now and the line as it should read. No generic checklist.

File and structure

Whether the format survives parsing at all, and what the system sees instead of what you see.

Title and positioning

The job title you give yourself versus the one employers search for. These differ more often than you would think.

Skills and keywords

Which of your technologies are written in a form a search will match, and which are invisible as written.

Achievements

Turning duties into outcomes with scale attached, the single change that moves most CVs the furthest.

Gaps and job changes

How to present a career break, a relocation or a short stint so it stops being the reason you are skipped.

Gulf market fit

What employers in the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar expect to see, including what to leave out, such as a photo or marital status.

One-off payment, no subscriptions

Checking it and fixing it are the same job, so they are one price. You pay once, after we have spoken.

Three steps, one working day

1

Send the file

The CV you are using right now, and a link to one vacancy you would like to get. Nothing else needed.

2

I read it as a recruiter

Against that vacancy, the way I screen candidates, plus what the parser makes of your formatting.

3

You get it back

Within one working day: the rewritten CV as an editable DOCX and a ready PDF, plus a note on what changed and why.

Questions people ask first

Will this guarantee me interviews? +

No, and be wary of anyone who promises that. A CV cannot create experience you do not have. What it can do is stop you being filtered out before anyone reads it, and make what you have done obvious in the few seconds it gets.

What if my CV turns out to be fine? +

Then I will tell you so before you pay, and point you at what is actually holding you back, usually the profile, or which roles you are applying to. I would rather say that than take $39 for tidying something that already works.

Should the CV and my LinkedIn say the same thing? +

They should agree on the facts (titles, dates, scale), because recruiters open both and inconsistencies raise questions. But they do different jobs: the profile has to be found in a search, the CV has to survive a filter and a fast read. That is why they are rewritten differently.

Is my CV kept private? +

Yes. Your CV is not shared with employers, not added to any database and not passed to anyone. It is used to do the work you asked for and nothing else.

What if I am changing field or have a gap? +

Say so when you write: these are the cases where the wording matters most. A gap or a career change is far less damaging than an unexplained one, and most CVs leave them unexplained.

Which language should the CV be in? +

English for the Gulf and for international companies. It is what hiring teams read. Send me whatever you have, including a Russian version, and the result will be in English.

Two problems, two fixes

They sound alike but they are not. Pick by what is actually happening to you.

You apply and hear nothing

You are here

You send applications and they vanish. The CV is being dropped by the parser or skimmed past by a recruiter, so the work you have done never registers.

That is the CV. $39.

See what is included

Nobody approaches you

No recruiter messages, no interest out of nowhere. Your profile never appears in the searches recruiters run, so there is nothing to apply to in the first place.

That is the LinkedIn profile. From $39.

Send me the CV you are using now

I will tell you honestly whether it needs rewriting or just a few fixes you can make yourself. If I cannot help, I will say so before you pay anything.
