Turn Your CV Into a Powerful Career Asset

Communicate your value clearly. 

Position yourself with confidence. Get noticed for the right opportunities!

I write CVs that make your value, strengths, and suitability for the roles you truly want immediately clear to recruiters and employers.

The strongest CVs are not about listing experience. They are about making your value immediately obvious.

Let's Face it

Changing jobs and changing country can be extremely challenging, and understandably so, it’s the great unknown. Our brain goes into overdrive trying to see ahead looking for clues, clarity, and certainty that all will be ok. 


That's why, if you've ever thought to yourself?...

  • I don’t know how to communicate my strengths clearly
  • I’m not sure how to position myself
  • What if I’m not good enough?
  • How do I fit all my experience into 2-3 pages?
  • What's the correct format etc.?
  • What's the next career step for me?

...then Boost Your CV could be a strong fit for you.

One of the biggest shifts clients consistently speak about is the increase in confidence that comes from having a strategically positioned CV.

Because at the end of the day, employers respond to the confidence, clarity, and certainty you communicate when describing the value you bring.

And aside from a new CV, these are just some of the additional benefits the BOOSTED process can provide.

Hi There! I'm Lyndon

I started out as a professional photographer, searching for the best angles in people’s faces for portraiture, fashion portfolios, and later weddings.

Identifying someone’s “best angle” became instinctive to me.

Today, the only difference is that your value is captured in the form of a CV rather than on film.

I have over 30 years of combined experience in personal branding, corporate identity design, and defining products and services for small to medium-sized businesses.

The last 10 years have been dedicated to career consulting, helping more than 2,500 professionals better define, position, and communicate their value.

I help people distill and articulate their experience more compellingly, positioning their strengths more powerfully to attract new opportunities.

THE

PROCESS

STEP

1

Step 1: CV Review & Quotation

Submit your current CV for review and I’ll respond with an explanation of how I would approach upgrading your CV so that there are no unwanted surprises and you can make an informed decision as to whether you would like to proceed.

STEP

2

Quotation Approval & Payment

If you wish to proceed, I forward you a payment link for payment by Visa and Master Card, or if you're in Europe, my banking details.

STEP

3

1ST Draft

Once I start working on your CV I send you a notification email. Once the 1st draft is ready, I forward it to you for your approval along with an editable word doc for you to edit and amend if needs be, after which you send it back to me to finalise your CV. 

STEP

4

Final Docs & LinkedIn Update

Once I have applied the suggested edits I prepare and send you an email with the final documents. These include a Word document, a PDF and a link to the master editable document along with additional best practice guidelines. Once you have approved your CV and Cover I then go ahead and update your LinkedIn profile. 

Turnaround Times


Important to note:

As I don't employ a team of CV writers, turnaround times vary depending on how many CVs are in the queue, and how many clients sign up through the course of the day.

Once you've sent your CV for a review and quote, I will indicate current turnaround times.

Normally speaking, the average turnaround time is 7-9 days.

If you have any concerns or questions regarding timing, please let me know.


OPTIONAL RUSH FEE: €95 (Overnight) | €75 (72hrs) | €45 (1week)

Please note these RUSH TURNAROUND options may not always be available, please check with me first.


Still Not Sure?


Listed below are personal messages received from client's sharing with me the outcomes they experienced, and what the new BOOSTED CV made them feel, along with their heartfelt thanks. 

I don't typically ask for testimonials as I feel these messages are more sincere and a better way to judge the results I offer.

I believe the same is true for one's CV, it needs to be authentic. 

READY TO INVEST IN YOURSELF?

YOU ARE AFTER ALL, YOUR OWN BUSINESS!

"Even if you’re employed, you offer a service and are paid for that. If you want to protect your position, be promoted and be paid more, best you mind your business and mind it well.

This powerful perspective will steer opportunity your way and ideally position you for career success.

Professional Introduction Service

If you're tired of sending your CV out day after day without receiving any response, and you would like someone to help you get past ATS systems and onto the desk of decision-makers, then this service may be the right fit for you.

The benefit is that you are introduced directly to decision-makers, with the goal of securing a brief meet-and-greet via Zoom or a phone call.

This initial conversation would help them to determine whether they would like to proceed to a full interview.

Feel free to reach out to me for more information.

Boost Your Salary

Request-A-Quote

I have successfully assisted clients on numerous occasions to increase their salaries by clarifying their applicable skills and market value, and uncovering opportunities they'd not yet considered.

If you believe you are worth more but are not sure how to substantiate it, feel free to discuss this with me.

We can then determine the best way forward to position your value so that you are able to earn what you are worth.

THE TOOLBOX REVIEW DISCOVERY SESSION

If you’d like to feel more confident in your ability to present your strengths in a comprehensive, natural, and to-the-point manner, then this session is for you.

If I asked you the question “Why should I hire you?” and you struggle to answer it, then this session is definitely for you.

It’s extremely important to be clear on your personal “Toolbox”, your unique combination of Skills, Attributes, Gifts, and Talents, and the possibilities and benefits that arise when these are applied in various combinations. This insight boosts your self-worth and energises you during interviews.

The most rewarding outcome, I believe, is the clarity you gain in being able to judge whether a job is truly the right fit for you.

In this session, I guide you on how to present your diverse skill set, work experience, and overall value in a way that effectively communicates your potential to any employer. This clarity and self-awareness often ignite a genuine passion in interviews, making you stand out even more as a candidate.

Benefits:
The benefits are invaluable, confidence and clarity in both CV preparation and interview performance. Avoid the costly mistakes of overselling, underselling, or stumbling over your words. Instead, walk in with a grounded sense of who you are and what you bring to the table.

THE PATHFINDER 

SESSION

This service is ideal if you're feeling a little unclear about the professional direction you want to take, and as a result, feel stuck, uncertain, or even frustrated.

You want to move forward but feel reluctant, unsure, and perhaps even apprehensive about finding the right role. Where does one even begin?

The key is to get back to basics, to step back and take an objective look at the true value of your experience and skillset, and the possibilities they represent.

This isn’t a Myers-Briggs Type Indicator test or anything like that. It’s simply a relaxed, insightful conversation between you and me, designed to explore, discover, and expand your sense of what's possible.

My role is to create a calm, supportive environment where I help you identify the “nuggets” of value in your journey so far. Together, we shape these into a meaningful direction. The ideal outcome? A clear path forward that energises you and allows your unique genius to shine.

Benefits:
You’ll gain greater clarity and confidence in your professional direction, knowing where you fit best and how you can offer the most value. This clarity also translates powerfully into your CV and future interviews.

Telecommunications Specialist

Dear Lyndon, I would like to express my deepest gratitude for the session you held with me. Not only did it restore my confidence in myself, but also highlighted so many opportunities for me to consider and pursue. I had reached a point of hopelessness not knowing which way to turn. Thank God I met you when I did because you shed so much light on my capabilities that I left that session feeling like I was walking 2 feet off the ground.

Within one month of that career designing session I secured a position for almost 4 times more than what I was used to earning, taking into account all the perks as well. My family is thriving as a result and that in itself is a thrill to my soul. Thank you doesn’t seem enough, but I will always be grateful for your input into my life.

FAQ

Do You Guarantee Results?

Unfortunately I cannot guarantee results because there are too many variables at play. The main variable is that I am not there to look over your shoulder, every time you apply for a role to assess whether what you are doing is correct. The only security I can offer is to point to the outcomes other clients have experienced. Please see the reviews above.

How Does One Pay?

There are three ways I receive payment for now.

1. EFT - If you're based in Europe, I can provide you with an IBAN account no.
2. Card Payments - I send you a link which leads you to an online payment gateway. Very simple and easy to use.
3. PayPal - I can send you a payment link which leads you to a PayPal invoice. Alternatively, you pay direct from PayPal using my email address. info@lyndonwaynefriend.com
