CV Library - great account management team

The CV Library Support team is very good. My Account Manager, Courtney Jackson (CJ) has been extremely helpful in guiding me through how better to maximise my job adverts and to have specific candidates with the right Boolean searches.
CJ was very knowledgeable and I took on board some great tips!

Jacqui Wilson - Keep hold of this one

We're possibly looking to add a new team member, so I signed up for the free trial. Shortly afterwards, Jacqui Wilson got in touch to see if I'd like a quick call.

I'll admit, I was expecting the usual sales pitch and assumed I'd end up being pressured into signing up. I couldn't have been more wrong.

Jacqui was genuinely lovely. We spent 15 minutes chatting about recruitment, the market and a range of other topics. There was no sales patter, no pressure, no request for card details—just honest, helpful advice.

It's refreshing to deal with someone who focuses on being helpful rather than selling. That interaction alone has left a great impression, and because of it, CV-Library will definitely be one of the first places we look when we recruit our next team member.

I wanted to share a quick review for CV…

I wanted to share a quick review for CV Library and to thank Vikkie Liggins our Account Director personally, as it feels long overdue.

Glen Callum Associates have partnered with CV Library for well over ten years now, and throughout that time the platform has consistently delivered strong results, reliable tools, and excellent support. It’s become a core part of how we deliver high‑quality recruitment to our clients.

A huge part of that experience comes down to the service we get from Vikkie and the team. They are always proactive in making sure we’re getting the very best from our licence, keeping us updated with new features, advising on market trends, and checking in to ensure everything is running smoothly. The support genuinely makes a difference.

Vikkie is personable, honest, cheerful, and incredibly easy to work with which makes communication so easy.

Thanks for everything you do to Vikkie and the team it’s very much appreciated.

A special mention goes to Alicia Barrett, our Senior Customer Success Specialist, who is always proactive, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. She regularly provides valuable insights and recommendations, and nothing is ever too much trouble. Alicia genuinely takes the time to understand our business and is a pleasure to work with.

I had a great experience with CV-Library thanks to Matthew. He made the whole setup process straightforward and took the time to ensure my account was configured correctly. He also arranged a training session to help me get started, which was really informative and gave me the confidence to use the platform effectively for work.

Matthew was professional, knowledgeable, and patient throughout, answering all of my questions and making sure I understood how to get the most out of CV-Library. Excellent customer service from start to finish—I really appreciate the support and would highly recommend both Matthew and CV-Library.
