Hi Joseph, 

The CV is 80% there from my point of view and you stand a good chance of passing the screening for most firms under the current format. 

Indeed, if you want an in-detail review to maximize your chances, you might want to consider some professional help. This takes some time, including an actual discussion with you, and requires significant experience, which is why experts charge for it. I hope you understand. 

If you're interested, happy to help you with developing an application strategy as part of the CV review process. 

Best,

Cristian

Hi Joseph,

I am sorry, but it is almost impossible to provide meaningful feedback on your CV without seeing all of it.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to make your CV perfect, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

Hi there,

If you click on a coaches profile you can see there's a button called “Resume review”. I recommend you try to click on that!

Hi there,

I'm with Ian - most coaches offer this as a service and it's money very well spent! In your case, it's not bad but there's work to do.

Here's a freeby: please review your date formatting. From a perfectionist's perspective it's all over the place.
