Please give us a short summary of your website?
CVSurgeon.com is involved in Resume Writing for senior professionals anywhere in the world. Our clients are mostly in India, Middle Eastern countries, South Africa & even Britain.
What inspired you to launch your own website?
I used to find the CVs of various candidates absolutely unimpressive while conducting interviews in the companies I was working for various senior positions. When I started my own recruitment company in 1995, I used to be disappointed on seeing very Bad resume but excellent professionals. It was impossible to get them interviewed in my client companies for various senior position. Therefore, I started writing resume.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
CVSurgeon.com was my first website. It was in 2001.
How did you decide on a name for your website?
I think CVSurgeon has now become more or less a generic name. I couldn't decide about a better name.
What makes your website different from other, similar offerings?
At CVSurgeon.com we have a Writer, who is simply not a copywriter alone. In other websites you will find copywriters with 2-5 yrs experience writing or in fact attemting to write resume of CEOs / VPs/ GMs. All terrible waste. Our main writer has been CEO of a large Indian Group. He is MBA from most prestigious Indian Institute of Foreign Trade (IIFT). Now he is leading a plethora of service companies like JobzTel Consulting Group & Executive Search Safari in headhunting in Indian subcontinent & Gulf.
