What Rajeev does

BookYourCV, operated under the parent entity VR technology and headquartered in Kolkata, India, is a direct-to-consumer online resume writing service founded in 2012 and serving individual job seekers, senior executives, and study-abroad applicants. The company produces ATS-optimized documents across text, visual, infographic, and HTML-hosted digital CV formats, applying a proprietary 3C methodology (Client requirement, Competition analysis, Corporate requirement) to keyword-map each resume to specific job descriptions. Supporting offerings include LinkedIn profile writing, cover letters, SOP/LOR writing for international admissions, mock interviews, and subscription-based job search assistance.

The platform runs entirely online via bookyourcv.com, accepting orders and payments through CCAvenue (INR) and PayPal (USD), with a 24-hour coordinator call and delivery in 4 working days as standard. Customer acquisition is predominantly inbound through content marketing, organic SEO targeting resume-writing keywords, and city-specific landing pages for major Indian metros; international inbound is sourced from the USA, UK, UAE, Australia, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia, Qatar, and France. There is no mobile app, no disclosed AI/ML stack, no API product, and no enterprise integrations beyond payment gateways and a LinkedIn-to-Digital-CV linkage.

The business model is overwhelmingly transactional and one-time: most services are priced per-deliverable in tiered bands by applicant experience (0-1, 1-5, 5-8, 8-15, 15+ years), with combo packages (Rs 1,710-9,836 / $24-141) bundling resume, LinkedIn, cover letter, and digital CV, plus a subscription job-search leg at Rs 2,000/month. All packages include 2-year free update support, generating recurring touchpoints and revision revenue even on one-time service sales. The firm claims cumulative delivery of 200,000+ resumes since founding, operates with 11-50 employees, is privately held and bootstrapped with no disclosed external investment, and demonstrates no acquisitions, partnerships, M&A, or leadership transitions in the available record.
