Remote CV Writer — Part-Time or Full-Time
A resume has about six seconds to make its case before a recruiter decides whether to keep reading. Naukri Mitra is hiring a CV Writer who knows how to win those six seconds — someone who can take a decade of scattered job titles and turn them into a document that actually gets an interview scheduled. This role is open to both part-time and full-time writers, and it's fully remote.
Core Responsibilities
- Review client work histories, LinkedIn profiles, and intake notes to identify the strongest achievements to highlight
- Write and format resumes tailored to a client's target industry and seniority level
- Rework outdated or poorly structured resumes into clean, ATS-friendly documents
- Communicate directly with clients to clarify gaps, ambiguous job titles, or unclear metrics
- Incorporate quantifiable results wherever possible instead of vague responsibility statements
- Manage multiple client projects simultaneously, each with its own deadline
- Stay current on resume formatting trends and applicant tracking system requirements
Qualifications and Experience
Candidates should have a minimum of
1.5 years of professional experience in resume writing, recruitment, HR, or related writing. A
Bachelor's degree is required as the baseline educational qualification.
Also required:
- Excellent written English with strong attention to grammar, formatting, and consistency
- Ability to extract compelling detail from clients who may not describe their own achievements well
- Working knowledge of resume structures across industries — technical, creative, executive, and entry-level
- Familiarity with applicant tracking systems and how formatting choices affect parsing
- Comfortable managing 8–12 active client projects at a time without missing deadlines
Preferred Skills
- Background in recruitment, HR, or career coaching
- Experience writing resumes for niche fields — healthcare, tech, legal, or finance
- Familiarity with LinkedIn profile optimization
- Prior freelance or agency resume writing experience
Compensation and Benefits
This role pays
$55,519 per year for full-time work, with prorated compensation for part-time schedules. Naukri Mitra also provides:
- Full remote flexibility, with the choice between part-time and full-time hours
- Paid time off for full-time employees
- Health coverage contribution for eligible team members
- Performance-based bonuses tied to client satisfaction ratings
- Ongoing access to resume-writing training resources and industry updates
Team and Culture
You'll join a small, focused group of writers who take resume writing seriously as a craft, not a side gig. There's regular peer review on tricky cases — a career-changer with an unconventional background, or an executive resume that needs to say a lot in very little space. Growth within the team often means moving into higher-level client work, such as executive resumes, or taking on a mentorship role for newer writers as the team expands.
How to Apply
Submit a resume along with two writing samples that demonstrate range — ideally one entry-level or mid-career resume and one more senior or executive-level piece. Include a brief note on your relevant experience and preferred working hours (part-time or full-time). Applications are reviewed individually, and candidates can expect a response within about two weeks.
