Written for the South African job market

Your CV, rewritten so a human wants to read it and the software can.

Most CVs are filtered out before a manager ever sees them. Kwenta CV rewrites yours in South African English, structures it for applicant tracking systems, and tells you exactly what still needs fixing.

0

Every rewrite comes with an ATS readiness score and the exact fixes you still need to make.

One weekly pass from R99. Cancel any time before your next billing date.

Learn what makes a CV work

Four things that decide whether your CV gets read. Every pass also gives you specific written feedback on your own CV each time you generate one.

Beat the screening software
Large South African employers filter CVs with software before a person reads them. Tables, columns and logos break those parsers, so we keep everything plain and single-column.
Achievements, not duties
"Responsible for stock control" tells a manager nothing new. We rewrite each line as action, context and outcome — without inventing a number you did not give us.
Mirror the advert, honestly
If the advert says "creditors reconciliation" and your CV says "supplier payments", you get filtered out for a skill you have. We align the wording only where you genuinely match.
South African structure and length
SA spelling, matric, +27 numbers and MM/YYYY dates, in the order employers expect. Two pages is normal here; one if you have under three years of experience.
One simple pass

A week is all it should take

We only sell a weekly pass, because you should not be paying month after month to look for work. Unlimited documents while your week is active, subject to a fair-use daily allowance. Prices in South African Rand.

Frequently asked questions

Be clear on what this is

Kwenta CV acts strictly as an independent CV and resume writing service. We are not a recruitment agency, employment agency or placement service, we have no relationship with any employer, and we do not submit applications on your behalf. We never guarantee a job, an interview, a shortlisting or any response from an employer. ATS readiness scores are estimates of keyword and formatting optimisation only — they are not issued by any employer or applicant tracking system, and they are not predictors of hiring outcomes. Documents are drafted by AI from the information you supply, and you remain responsible for checking every fact before you send anything to an employer. Read the full disclaimer and terms of service.
