Job seekers who got shortlisted

Thousands of job seekers trust CVShortlist to get shortlisted. Here's what they say.

I was applying for months with no response. Within a week of using CVShortlist I had three interviews lined up. The ATS score went from 58% to 91% — I had no idea my CV was that far off.
📈 58% → 91% match score

Moving internationally, I didn't realise how different the UK CV format was. CVShortlist restructured everything — the layout, the language, even what to leave out. Got a job at a Big 4 firm within 6 weeks of arriving.

I used to spend an hour tailoring my CV for each application. Now it takes 30 seconds. The keyword analysis alone is worth it — I can see exactly what I'm missing before I apply.

The recruiter view feature is brilliant. Seeing how a recruiter reads your CV in 6 seconds completely changed how I wrote mine. Got shortlisted for a role I thought was out of my reach.

I applied to 40+ jobs before CVShortlist. After tailoring with it, I got 4 interviews from the next 8 applications. The difference is night and day. Worth every penny of the Pro plan.

Questions answered

Everything you need to know

Do you store my CV or personal data?
No. Your CV is processed in real time and never stored on our servers. It passes securely to the AI, which generates your tailored version, and that's it — nothing is saved, logged, or used for training. You can read our full Privacy Policy for details.
Will it work for my country and sector?
CVShortlist supports 50+ target job markets including the UK, USA, Canada, Australia, Germany, UAE, Singapore, Ireland, and many more. It also covers 15 sectors — Finance, Technology, Healthcare, Engineering, Construction, Oil & Gas, Accounting, Sales, HR, Hospitality, Logistics, Marketing, Legal, Education, and more.
Can I try it without creating an account?
Yes — your first tailor is completely free with no sign-up required. Just paste your CV and a job description and click Tailor. Create a free account to get 3 tailors per month. Upgrade to Pro or Premium to download as PDF or Word, copy your CV, and boost your ATS score.
Will it make up experience I don't have?
No. CVShortlist only works with what's in your CV — it reframes, restructures, and rewords your real experience using the language and format the target market expects. It will never invent qualifications, jobs, or achievements. Your CV stays truthful.
What does a credit get me?
One credit = one full application pack. That includes the tailored CV, ATS keyword analysis, market insights, recruiter view simulation, and (on Pro and above) a matching cover letter. Everything for one job application, in one click. Credits reset on the 1st of each month.
How is CVShortlist different from other CV tools?
Most CV tools just optimise for keywords. CVShortlist goes further — it rewrites your CV specifically for the role, the market and your background. It understands that UK CVs don't include photos or dates of birth, that US resumes have a different structure, that UAE applications need different language. It applies ATS keyword matching, market-specific formatting, and role-specific language — all in one pass.
Why not just use an AI tool like ChatGPT or Gemini?
You can — but you'll spend 10–15 minutes crafting the right prompt, formatting the output, fixing hallucinations, and repeating it for every job. CVShortlist does all of that in one click, every time, consistently. General AI tools are powerful but they don't know ATS keyword rules, market-specific CV formatting, or how to match your experience to a job description without making things up. CVShortlist is purpose-built for this one job — and the output shows it.
Can I cancel my subscription?
Yes, any time. Go to My Account → Manage Subscription and cancel with one click. You keep access until the end of your billing period. No awkward phone calls, no hidden fees.
