    The CV site

    Anyone heard from these guys before?

    Two days ago, I had an email from them telling me that they would give me a CV review:
    As a registered member of one of our partners, you have been selected for a free CV review by The CV Site.

    One of our experts will analyse the layout, content, style of your CV and will provide you with a detailed overview within the next 48 hours.
    Today, I got another email, thanking me for submitting my CV for a review and offering to rewrite it for me for an unspecified amount. Of course, since I didn't send them my CV, I don't know what version they were reviewing, so don't know whether their feedback is relevant or not.

    Anyone else had anything, or am I just one of the lucky few?

      Funnily enough I got one very similar from another company this morning.

      It said that they would call me. I await it with some anticipation

        So did I - I assumed they were asking me for a CV.

        Then the review arrived just now.
