UKCS Reviews 

After a week of waiting for my order I got in touch. They tell me they've been trying to contact me (no calls received) to say the item is out of stock. Awful, unprofessional company, avoid at all costs.

Please do not use this company. They do not return calls and they blaming to other people Its day light robbery , honestly a waste of money and time.
They are very helpful at the beginning calling all the time once they get your money that's it no more contact or help.
I should not have to chase a company up
for a service they are suppose to provide to help people get back into work. Useless day light robbers.

Not sure if this company is trading website is still taking orders but I haven’t received any goods would recommend using another site

Ordered goods on 29 April. Arrived damaged and missing pieces on 9 May. UKCS were quick to respond and said they would investigate and send 6 replacements. On 21 May still awaiting missing pieces. 3 weeks is a long time and not a good result. They use Evri which have a poor experience record.

Great work - Thank you UKCS for re-writing my CV – Your professional approach made me easier for me to discuss my current CV and where I should be.
You kept me informed throughout the process and always answered any questions I raised.

I will be recommending your services to colleagues and friends.

C,V & Cover letter
I was a bit curious about the interview I had with their consultant Barry until I saw the results he produced for my c.v & cover letter. It was dynamic and I wasn't sure I recognised the description of my professional profile! I showed it to another recruiter who was very impressed. I now apply for roles with much more confidence! Thank you, I would recommend UKCS.

Cover letter and LinkedIn review exactly the same as the CV. Not had 1 reply from the agencies on the distribution list. A complete rip-off - DON'T PART WITH YOUR CASH

Was initially sceptical around paying money for somebody to compile my CV, however after a 40 minute telephone interview with Barry I was very happy with the outcome. The 2 page CV and covering letter he compiled were first class and reading through my CV it was as though he’d known me for some 2-3 years!
I will definitely recommend your services going forward.

Thank you

Steve

Both Simon and Barry were extremely helpful, friendly and professional.

Thanks to your CV and Linked-in profile service I have an upgraded profile that reflects my experiences and knowledge in the very best way. I am delighted by the service provision and have recommended you to numerous highly professional friends who wish to put their CV’s and on-line profiles in a more modern context.

The relevant staff have been very attentive to detail and have produced an excellent looking cv with the potential in getting me to the interview stage and hopefully a job offer.

Andy did an brilliant job of presenting my c.v in a way that i hadn't thought before. A first class service.

My consultant Andy did a thoroughly professional job in interpreting my thoughts and producing an excellent CV and covering letter to support my recent job application.Thank you so much for all the help and guidance in producing stand out professional and well presented documents.

The overall experience was great. I was pleased with the end result. The team was very cordial and patient with me. They appreciated the need for meeting their promises and timelines.

The ability to elicit valuable information during the discussions was evident. My resume got a complete makeover which is now a lot more professional and applicable to the direction I am seeking.

It was worth my money spent. Good service and response.

I just want to say that if you need some help with your CV, then you should try UKCS.
Had a good chat, got a good CV, and have now found my next job. The search was longer than I had hoped, but it was worth the wait.
Cheers guys!

The guys at UKSC were great. They really helped to improve my CV and boost my job search. I managed to secure a good job with their help, so would like to send my sincere thanks and appreciation.

P.s. I never give 5 stars!

They are absolutely top notch. Very professional, articulate and comprehensive. Last but not least, very friendly.

I wasn’t sure about paying for a CV to be written, but I wasn’t getting much from the one I wrote. It was good to hear someone else asking about my career, which helped to sort everything in my mind.
The CV was a definite improvement, and had all the additional stuff I had overlooked before.
And the response was much more encouraging. It gave me the confidence to apply for better roles, and after a couple of interviews that didn’t go anywhere. I now have a new job and things are moving forward in the right direction.

A good service. Andy worked closely with me to develop a cv that enabled me to get a job in just 6 weeks despite being 55!

Their package price is a good one, no doubt about it. I decided to buy me a Christmas present - a possible better chance to get a new job, and went ahead with a purchase. I did not like the CV they created but thought it might be me being old fashioned and decided to give it a chance. After I completed all their back-covering paperwork and gave them the green light to send it, the CV ended up at at least 2 companies I did not want it to go to. The distribution list I received from them was chaotic, it seemed they just throw any email addresses they could find.
At this point I thought I'd limit the possible damage. I went ahead and told them I no longer want to use their services and want to be reimbursed for the work they were supposed to but did not perform. The response was, I quote:

"The sources we use for the email addresses is supposed to be recruitment consultancies only, and we will need to address this issue with them.
The packages we put together are not based on individual costs per element, and you will note that the package established is different to the sample from the website, as we look to match elements to need."

Basically this translates: you pay the good money and we do whatever we want to.

They did return a good part of the money after I pushed for it - I was, and still am ready to go to Small Claims Court.
I see they claim they changed their processes under another negative review here, I quote:
"We also admit that there were some recruiters included in the exercise that were outside your target area, which is why we have significantly adjusted our processes since then."
The quote is from 9 Jan 19, and my contact with them that I quote above was on 4 Jan. It does not seem very likely that they did a major change between 5 and 8 Jan (5 and 6 being the weekend), does it?
I was a little bit nervous of the fact that they own a software that would allow them to send emails on my behalf. Do you know that they do not have a privacy policy posted on their web site? Have you found any data protection commitments anywhere in their web site or the purchase confirmation email they send?

Added to that I sent the CV to a recruiter I know and trust and she made very significant changes in the document. For no money.

Avoid at all cost. Anyone can do a better job than these guys. It's waste of time, waste of money and also waste of nerves.
