Most people spend a great part of their lives working. Not only that, but in addition to actually working they also spend time travelling to and from work, and also applying for jobs.
Significantly, the most important tool you have in your job application armoury is your CV. It not only affects what kind of job you get (or don't get!), but indirectly it also can affect your life and your lifestyle too.
There is no doubt that the better your CV, the better your job prospects. And this is one reason why many people use the services of professional CV writers to boost their odds and gain an advantage. At the same time, a lot of people just use DIY CVs. Significantly, some of the people who use DIY CVs would probably use professional ones instead if they actually realised the true importance of their CV.
