Competency-form applicant
Structuring examples for scored application forms.
Edinburgh pairs a long-established financial community with a capital-city public sector, universities and a major visitor economy. Each hires differently, and a single CV rarely suits all of them.

The Edinburgh market
Asset management, banking and fintech firms recruit on commercial results and regulatory competence. Government bodies, universities and cultural organisations favour competency evidence and clearly stated criteria.
We tailor the structure to the audience: tight, metric-led profiles for finance, fuller evidence-based entries for public-sector and academic applications.
Industry focus
Investment, banking and software CVs linking technical depth to business outcomes.
Government, university and charity applications written against person specifications.
Events, hospitality and heritage CVs that show seasonal scale and customer impact.
The service
Fees depend on career stage rather than location, starting from £59 for graduates. Compare every option on the Packages page. Rated 4.7/5 on Trustpilot and 4.8/5 on Google.
