What it is
Moving into a different field leaves a gap between what your job titles say and what the advertisement asks for, and a CV in date order asks the reader to close that gap themselves. This one has a transferable-skills block above the employment history, so the carrying-across is done on the page rather than left to somebody skimming.
The block is a set of skill headings with room under each for where you used it, which is what keeps it from reading as a list of adjectives. The employment history underneath stays in date order, shorter, so the reader can still see what you have been doing and when.
The cover letter in this set is laid out for the same job, with a structure that names the change early instead of leaving it to be discovered on the second page. The PDF guide explains both, and says plainly which parts are yours to write.
What is in the download
This list is what the finished files have to hold. It is the description the kit is sold on, and under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 a file that does not match it is not as described.
- A CV document with a transferable-skills block above the history
- A cover letter document in the same styles
- A PDF guide to editing and saving the set
What it opens in
- Microsoft Word for Windows or macOS opens and edits the DOCX files as laid out
- Google Docs, LibreOffice Writer and Pages will open them, and spacing and fonts may move on the way in
- Any PDF reader opens the guide
No software licence is included with a kit and none is sold here: whatever you open the files in is yours to have already, and its cost is nothing to do with this shop.
How you edit it
- Name your own skill headings in the transferable block: the ones supplied are prompts to replace, not a fixed list.
- Keep one piece of evidence under each heading, and delete headings you cannot evidence rather than padding them.
- Save your finished copy as PDF from Word before sending it, so that the layout arrives as you left it.
The PDF guide in the download goes through all of this in detail, with the steps for saving a finished copy as a PDF.
What it does not do
- It is a document you complete yourself. Nothing is written, checked or sent for you.
- No claim is made about applicant tracking software: how a particular employer’s system reads a file is outside this shop’s control and nothing here is tested against one.
- No job, interview or reply is promised with it. Yelvora sells documents and nothing else.

Suggestions, and nothing more: neither of these is in your basket, and following a link here does not put it there. Each one carries its own button.
