How I Work with CVs & Resumes

I approach CVs and resumes as strategic documents, not lists of past roles. Every section, heading, and description contributes to how a reviewer understands your education, experience, and readiness for the position you seek.

I assess structure, organization, and emphasis first—what draws attention, what gets overlooked, and how the information flows in your CV or resume. I then focus on how your experience descriptions communicate scope, responsibility, and relevance, ensuring the details support your candidacy rather than dilute it.

My feedback centers on:

  • Prioritizing information so reviewers see what matters most, first
  • Clarifying experience descriptions so context, roles, responsibilities and outcomes are immediately clear
  • Aligning structure, formatting, and wording with professional expectations for your field

I provide clear guidance on what to change and why, then refine the document through a second round so the final version reads as deliberate, polished, and professional.

I work directly on:

Who You’ll Be Working With

I’m David Lombardino, founder of DLA Editors & Proofers. Since 2008, I’ve worked with applicants across industries, career stages, and academic backgrounds on CVs and resumes used for applications, promotions, and career transitions.

My work emphasizes judgment, clarity, and professional standards. I focus on how decision-makers read documents, what signals credibility, and how structure and detail shape evaluation.

Applicants work with me when they want more than surface corrections—when they want a document that reflects their experience accurately and presents it with care, intention, and professionalism.
