Is this right for you?

Our education and training CV writing service is for you if any of these sound familiar.

Your CV lists duties, not the student outcomes you delivered

You've lifted student outcomes, led curriculum change, mentored staff and driven program improvement - but your CV describes what you did rather than the impact you had.

You're moving from the classroom into leadership

Stepping up from teaching into a coordinator, head of department or leadership role - and your application needs to position your leadership impact, not just your classroom practice.

You're moving between sectors

Moving between schools, higher education, vocational education or the corporate training sector, or responding to competency-based application questions - and your application needs to reposition your experience for a different audience and format.

Not sure if this is the right fit? Submit your CV for a free review and a specialist will tell you honestly what needs to change and which service, if any, makes sense for you. Start with a free review

FAQs

Frequently asked questions.

Do your CV writers have experience in education and training?

Yes. Since 2011 we've grown our team to 65 specialist CV writers working across 72+ industries, and we've written more than 60,000 CVs for over 920 professions. We match you with the specialist who has the most relevant education and training experience for your role.

How long does it take?

Your first draft is delivered within 3 business days of your consultation call, which is usually scheduled for the next business day after you book. Express 1 and 2 business day turnarounds are also available.

Who will be working on my CV, and how do we communicate?

A consultant who specialises in the New Zealand job market works with you from start to finish. It starts with a one-to-one consultation by phone or Zoom, typically around an hour. After that you can reach your consultant by phone, Zoom or online chat in your account.

Will my CV get past applicant tracking systems (ATS)?

Yes. Most employers and job boards use ATS software to filter applications, and most applications are filtered by these systems before a recruiter sees them. Every CV we write is ATS-optimised with the keywords and formatting your target roles are screened for.

Can I request revisions?

Yes. Revisions are unlimited. Your consultant delivers requested changes by 5pm the following business day, and we keep going until your CV is exactly right.

Why a specialist matters

CV People education specialist vs generic and AI CV services.

Education and training applications live and die on impact and evidence against the role criteria. Student outcomes, curriculum leadership and evidence of impact need to be framed precisely - by an education specialist, not a generic writer or AI tool.
