CV & Cover Letter Toolkit
Your experience deserves a CV that gets noticed.
Turn your mining experience into a clear, targeted application built for the roles you actually want.
Show what you’ve achieved
Turn responsibilities into measurable results.
Speak the language of mining
Position your experience for the roles you want.
Make every application relevant
Tailor your CV instead of sending the same one everywhere.
You have the experience.
Your CV just isn't showing it.
Mining recruiters scan applications quickly. If your experience isn't clear, relevant and measurable, it's easy to get overlooked.
Too generic — “Responsible for mine scheduling.”
Too vague — “Helped improve production.”
Too much information — Every task listed flat.
Not tailored — The same application sent to every role.
Before & after
Same experience. Different CV.
See how the same mining experience can go from a generic application to a clear, targeted CV built to get noticed.

Testimonials
Real experiences. Real results.
“I'd sent close to forty applications and heard nothing. Rebuilt my CV on the 2-page template, moved my tickets and roster availability to the top, and had two callbacks the same week.”
“The how-to guide was the part I actually needed. I stopped second-guessing what goes where, and it finally reads like someone who works in mining wrote it.”
“Came across from construction with no idea how to sound like mining. The keyword list and the before/after examples made the rewrite obvious.”
