We believe world-class career tools should be accessible to every job seeker — regardless of where they are in the world.
CVStage was founded in 2024 in Erbil, Kurdistan Region of Iraq — with one mission: to make world-class career tools accessible to every job seeker, regardless of where they are in the world.
We saw firsthand how talented professionals in the Middle East and beyond were being held back not by their skills — but by outdated CVs, ineffective job applications, and lack of access to career guidance. We built CVStage to change that.
To democratize career success by combining the latest AI technology with deep HR expertise — giving every job seeker the tools that used to be available only to those who could afford expensive career coaches.
Our AI is trained on real ATS systems and recruitment data — not generic text. It knows what gets CVs shortlisted.
The first career platform to support the Kurdish language and tailor guidance to the Kurdish, Iraqi, and regional job market.
12 AI tools in one place: CV builder, ATS checker, cover letter generator, mock interview, salary estimator, and more.
Starting at $7/month — versus the industry average of $49. Professional career tools should not cost a fortune.
CVStage is an early-stage startup founded by a small team in Erbil, Kurdistan. We're building the tools we wish we'd had when we were job hunting ourselves — lean, focused, and committed to making professional career tools accessible to everyone in Kurdistan, Iraq and the Middle East.
Questions, partnership enquiries, or press requests — we would love to hear from you.
