FAQ

If you’re not interested in a bundle and prefer just a CV or LinkedIn profile writing service, no problem! We always accommodate our clients’ needs and are happy to help you with a CV-only option.

A LinkedIn Optimization service is a professional offering designed to enhance your LinkedIn profile, making it more attractive to recruiters, potential clients, and collaborators. These services go beyond simple updates; they strategically craft your profile to improve visibility, engagement, add more connections, and we upload your CV and tag the team of recruiters we work with to add chances and overall impact.

Your CV will be delivered in both PDF and Word formats. You may make minor edits yourself if you wish. For major updates, or if you prefer us to make the changes for you, simply email your revisions to info@creative-cv.co.za, including your order number in the subject line.

If you do not respond within 3 days of receiving your CV, your order will be closed. Once you approve your CV, the order will also be closed. To reopen a closed order, a R550 reopening fee will apply.

You should avoid including references on your CV, as most Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) cannot read them. This may reduce your chances of passing the initial screening stage. However, if you still prefer to have references included, we can add them upon request. Please note that in such cases, we cannot be held responsible if your application is rejected due to ATS incompatibility.

Refunds can only be requested within 2 days of payment. After this period, no refunds will be issued as work on your service will have already commenced.

If you prefer that we don’t upload your CV, please let us know. However, please note that this may limit your exposure to the recruiters we work with.

When we provide you with a thank-you note, it includes a unique code that we use to add your CV to our recruiters’ database. If you choose to pass without reviewing your CV, we will not be able to add it to the database. In such cases, you become a “pass-by client,” which may affect the process and cost when you return for future edits.

1st draft turnaround time from 4 working days – 10 working days, depending on your package days

Final CV turnaround time – 2 work days post CV content approval.

Counting starts the day after payment reflects in our account.
