StellarCVs supports professionals at all career stages, from graduate applicants to senior leaders, executives, and governance specialists. While many clients are mid-to-senior-level professionals, every project receives the same expertise, strategic insight, and attention to detail.

No matter the career stage, the goal is to provide the knowledge, tools, and tailored documents that enhance confidence and position individuals for success.

Job searches are often time-sensitive, and meeting deadlines is our priority. The standard turnaround time for a CV or application is 2-4 business days, allowing for revisions and phone/video catch ups if required. For urgent requests, expedited services are available - in some cases, documents can be completed within 24 hours.

Please share your target date, and every effort will be made to accommodate your timeline.

StellarCVs follows a comprehensive, personalised, and collaborative approach to CV writing and career support:

1. Initial Consultation

The process begins with a telephone consultation to discuss your requirements, check availability, confirm fees and completion timelines. A free CV review is available at this stage. If moving forward, you’ll receive a Calendly link to book your appointment and a short pre-session survey (Google Form) to complete. Meetings are held in person or via video call (Zoom, Teams, Google Meet).

2. One-Hour Consultation

A structured session to explore your career goals, experience, and positioning. This includes job search strategy, recruiter engagement advice, and tailored recommendations to strengthen your applications.

3. CV Drafting & Revisions

A first draft is emailed by the agreed deadline, with collaborative revisions to refine key details. Your input ensures accuracy and alignment with your career goals before finalising the document.

4. Final Documents & Additional Support

Final copies are delivered in editable .docx and PDF formats. Additional services include cover letter writing, LinkedIn profile optimisation, and recruiter introductions (NZ & international).

5. Ongoing Advisory Support

StellarCVs remains a trusted career partner, available for advice on applications, recruiter engagement, and industry insights as needed.

While AI tools can generate basic CV content, they lack the insight, strategy, and human understanding required to create a CV that truly stands out. AI-generated CVs often sound generic, rely on overused phrases, and fail to position candidates effectively for their target roles and industries.

Here’s what makes a StellarCV different:

✔ Strategic Positioning for Your Career Goals – Every CV is designed to align with specific roles, industries, and recruiter expectations, ensuring you stand out for the right reasons. AI tools can only match keywords, but they lack the ability to craft a cohesive narrative that highlights career progression, leadership, and impact.

✔ Tailored to You, Not a Template – AI-generated CVs tend to be one-size-fits-all, while StellarCVs focuses on your unique strengths, achievements, and professional brand. Every document is carefully structured to showcase your value rather than just listing responsibilities.

✔ Impact-Driven & Results-Focused – AI struggles to effectively quantify achievements and highlight measurable outcomes. StellarCVs ensures that every CV clearly demonstrates business impact, leadership influence, and key contributions, which recruiters and hiring managers prioritise.

✔ Crafted for Human & ATS Readability – AI-generated CVs often produce awkward phrasing and formatting that don’t meet recruiter standards. StellarCVs ensures every document is reader-friendly, professionally formatted, and optimised for both human reviewers and ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems).

✔ Beyond the CV – Application & Job Search Strategy – A strong CV is just one part of a successful job search. StellarCVs provides additional support, including job application strategy, how to engage recruiters, and a LinkedIn profile you can be proud of.

The Bottom Line

An AI tool fills in a template - but a strategic, recruiter-ready CV requires expert positioning, deep industry knowledge, and a personalised approach. Invest in a CV that tells your story, strengthens your market positioning, and gives you the competitive edge you need in today’s difficult job market.
