Modern
Start with one strong CV. When a job really matters, target it.
Every day
Write it from a few notes or bring your existing CV. Four templates, full editing, a true-to-print preview and formats for markets worldwide.
When it matters
CVWorks Job Match reads the advert, compares it with your confirmed experience, shows what you clearly match and what is missing, then writes a separate CV and cover letter for that job.
How it works
Five straightforward steps. You stay in control of every word.
Enter rough information about your experience, skills and education — or upload an existing CV. Notes are fine; polished sentences are not required.
Your information is structured, tidied and presented professionally. Your facts stay your facts.
Pick a template, adjust the layout and edit any wording you want to change.
See the complete, page-accurate document before you decide to upgrade. The preview is watermarked.
Export a clean, print-ready PDF or editable Word document without the watermark with Pro.

A match score is guidance on how clearly your existing experience is presented against a job advert. It is not a prediction of interviews or offers, and CVWorks will never add skills you do not have to raise it.
Cover letter draft
Dear Hiring Manager,
I am applying for the Operations Manager position at Kestrel Industries. Over the past nine years I have led production and logistics teams across two manufacturing sites, most recently reducing order lead time from 14 to 11 days.
Your advert emphasises supplier performance and continuous improvement — both are central to my current role, where a weekly quality review cut material scrap by 31%.
Drawn only from the experience in your CV.
Cover letter
Your CV and the job advert are enough. CVWorks drafts a letter in the same voice and layout family as your document, so the pair looks deliberate.
