Score my CV

A compelling CV that highlights your skills and achievements is vital. When you upload your CV to CareerSet’s ‘Score My CV, the system will score its impact, structure, tone and bullet points. It will give you line-by-line feedback (limited to 10 per day) meaning you can rewrite your CV in real-time and gain insight into what employers want.

Target my CV

Once you’ve found a job you want to apply for, upload your CV and the job description, and ‘Target My CV will compare them, perform a skills-gap analysis and give you a relevancy score. It will highlight essential keywords and provide a clear overview of any skills you might be missing when applying for that dream job.
