Why does a successful job-hunt
start with an exceptional CV?

Today a CV today needs to be exceptional. It's that simple. Ask any recruiter how many CVs he or she is receiving per week and the number will be in the hundreds.

Why? The cost of sending a CV (via email) is nothing and the time it takes is just a few seconds per CV. The result is that recruiters are being inundated with CVs. Estimates vary as to how many CVs per advertised position a recruiter receives but an average of these estimates is around the 80 mark.

With recruiters working on between 3 and 15 openings at any one time you can imagine how little time each CV receives. Most receive just a few seconds of attention before the recruiter makes a decision to delete or keep. That means, to even get a personal response from a recruiter your CV needs to be exceptional.

Write your own CV the way a
professional would and win more interviews

As you probably know from your own experiences, CV writing takes several hours or even days. To have your CV professionally written is anywhere from £99 to £600+. With our set of professional CV writing tools you can write a professional CV in minutes. The tools include a step-by-step professional CV writing guide (in Word format so you can use it to build your own CV).

The guide takes you through each section of a CV the way a professional would. This ensures that you put everything in the right place and use appropriate content. We also provide you with ten CV templates (which are ready for you to use, also in Word format), and a report on the most common mistakes people make when writing a CV.

For maximum impact we provide you with 134 Power Verbs which are categorized to help you give the desired impression. We also give you a report containing ten ideas that will help make your CV fantastic.

Also, we point out the ten biggest mistakes people make when writing their CV -- so that you don't make them. It is important to note of course that an improved CV equals more invitations for interviews. We give you the tools to accomplish this.

Should I send a cover letter?

This is one of the questions that we are asked the most. And we always answer it the same way. Yes! The fact is, cover letters, when written correctly, increase response rates from recruiters -- by up to 212% in our studies. So, if you are not sending out an effective cover letter with your CV you are missing out on opportunities.

One of the tools we provide you with is a technique that enables you to write an effective cover letter every time in minutes. Yes, it is a simple technique but it's also very powerful, and we show you how to do it step-by-step. More importantly, it gets results. The truth is, most cover letters, probably around 95% to 97% of them, are out-of-date and ineffective. Yours needn't be.

In addition to information on writing an effective cover letter every time we provide you with the the information you need to enhance other job searching areas. We take you through various advanced job-hunting strategies, as well as powerful interview techniques. This ensures that you uncover more vacancies and win more interviews.

All of the tools and information
you need to write a professional
CV and job-hunt effectively

To make it easy for you we have put all of our professional CV writing tools and job-hunting information together into one convenient pack. In essence, the Job Hunting Power Pack goes further than any other resource for job hunters. It is the only job-hunting resource that contains everything (all the information and tools) needed for a successful job hunt and professional CV production. Completed in July 2003 and fully updated for 2004, the Job Hunting Power Pack contains innovative information on a wide range of job-hunting areas -- see it in the recruitment industry news. Click here to see the Job Hunting Power Pack in the news.

What's so special about the
tools and information here?

Through our market-leading CV distribution service (with 4,854+ registered recruiters) we see for ourselves what works and what doesn't work on a daily basis (we send out hundreds of CVs for job hunters every month to thousands of recruiters). So, we have included the best of what we have learnt in our Job Hunting Power Pack.

Others who produce job hunting guides typically study - other job-hunting guides! So with those you would get pretty much the same outdated information. But we see what works and what doesn't every day and update the Job Hunting Power Pack accordingly, so you get the latest techniques. Further, this is the only place you can get all of the information that encompasses all areas of job-hunting -- from the CV all the way through to the interview.

Corporate recruiter reveals
secrets on screening CVs and interview decisions

We also produced the Job Hunting Power Pack with a former professional corporate recruiter who has years of experience in designing systems to screen CVs and candidates at interviews. He also has a vast amount of experience in coaching job seekers in job searching strategies. As such, the Job Hunting Power Pack includes a broad range of inside information that is only available here.

This information gives you a unique opportunity to look inside the mind of a corporate recruiter and human resources professional to find out why some CVs make it and some are deleted, and why some people win interviews and others don't. Of course, the information is presented in a way that is easy to follow and to the point.

I decided to invest in the Job Hunting Power Pack as it was recommended to me by a good friend who knew I had just started looking for a new job. I was already in employment and looking for another position, so I didn't have much time to get a good CV and cover letter together, never mind job hunt. I did have a CV from a couple of years ago, but didn't realize how dated the layout was or how unprofessional it looked until I looked at the CV sections of the power pack. Fortunately, the CV templates and step-by-step CV enabled me to put a professional CV together within one hour. The guide on cover letters as well was very clear and enabled me to put together cover letters that really had an impact on recruiters. On using the section on power job hunting I was able to find positions to apply for quickly  -within three weeks I had three interviews. Even better, the interview guide that came with the pack gave me the confidence and the knowledge to win two out of the three interviews.

Thank you for all of your help. I will certainly be using the pack again when I look for my next position.

Best regards,
Peter Newman
Programmer, South East
