Cover letter, resume & CV proofreading service
Perfect language gets noticed by employers

Wording and clarity matter in a competitive job market. Job applications need to tick so many boxes to compete with other applicants, and your application is no different. The Telegraph reported that employers throw out up to 50% of applications, including those with bad formatting, spelling and grammar errors in them. 

English experts for English language issues

We are a unique collection of editors because, unlike most of our competitors, we require a minimum masters level education in linguistics to join our team. Plus, each editor must be a native English user. These qualities enable us to quickly deliver a quality editorial experience and perfect language for your cover letter, resume or CV.

The cover letter, resume, & CV proofreading service

We'll carefully read through your cover letter, resume or CV to remove spelling, grammar and syntax errors, or misplaced words. Add the editing addition to enable us to suggest alternative wording in your sentences to make your language clearer, and offer style fixes to improve the formatting of your cover letter, resume or CV. All of the changes are recorded to allow you to choose what you like and what you don't.

Originally from the US and currently based in England, I have a strong professional and academic background in writing, translating, and improving text, particularly adapting text written in English by speakers of other languages. I can also adapt language specifications easily to both US and UK English. I became passionate about working with language due to my bilingual French-English upbringing and also my experience of living in Spain and travelling to other countries around the world. I have worked in both academia and the private business sector, and now I am an English tutor at the University of Sheffield's language centre. As a freelance worker I am punctual, communicative and adaptable to most fields and publication requirements. I have taught English since 2008, and over the past 4 years I have spent a significant amount of time working with academics studying a wide range of subjects. I look forward to working with you!
