To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

I am awful at CV formatting, and this was just what I needed to put together a tailored CV that looked professional. Super intuitive, and great designs.

Makes a daunting task easy and even enjoyable!

Having not written a CV in this century, I was pretty terrified at the prospect. However, StandOut CV made it incredibly easy, to the point where I actually enjoyed doing it. The result looks great, and has already landed me two interviews within three days! Highly recommended

Love it

Love it! Really helped me feel more confident about applying for another job after 7 years of being in the same place! I didn't realise so many things have changed. Expectations are very different now!

Payment monthly subscription even though I thought it was nominal fee /scam

CV builder was excellent ,I paid the nominal fee to edit one cv and have access to this for 14 days ,you need to read small print as they didnt say this would sign you up to subscription that would be taken from my bank monthly if i didnt check my bank account regularly i would have been charged every month ,i have now paid 23 euros to edit and build one cv ,absolute joke.

Hi Micheline, sorry to hear that you're not happy with the service, but as I showed you, our pricing is shown clearly during the checkout process, and is always available on our pricing page here: https://standout-cv.com/about/cv-builder-pricing We provided you with the access you requested, so I'm afraid we cannot provide any refunds. Sorry

The CV is not FREE, you have to pay for a digital file

I spent a good hour making my CV, just for them to say I need to pay just to download it! There was no indication it would cost any money. Not good.
