Very good customer service
June 19, 2016

The customer service was very professional and fair. I signed up for the 14 day trial and did not cancel in that time frame. So I was billed for 4 months after the trial. The man in customer service was very nice and refunded 3 of the 4 months for me as a courtesy. I did not use the program after the 14 day trial - just forgot to cancel the membership, Cancelling the membership was very simple, just a phone call. I got an email confirmation immediately, along with my refund confirmations for the 3 months. Very good customer service.

Very useful and easy resume builder. Only complaint is the fact that I was unaware of a monthly fee since it was not made evident.

I needed to create a Resume and was searching on the web and found Resume-Now by LiveCareer. I was able to create a professional resume quickly utilizing their web based program and their power statement examples and templates.

It was one of the easiest resume programs I've used. I would definitely use them again should I have the need.

Alex the Super Star
June 19, 2016

Could not use my credit card to change format of my resume for a job that I "WANT". I need the job but this is the job I really want and they wanted a different format so I could start the job soon. Alex helped me with access so that this does happen. You have a "Superstar CSR".

Great Experience
June 19, 2016

I first used LiveCareer for writing a cover letter, due to not having written a cover letter in the past. I found the site very easy to use. My only concern was that there was an ongoing charge for using the site, which I did not realize at the time I signed up. Since I only needed the site for a single time, I contacted customer support and they quickly removed my charges, without any hassle. I was truly expecting to have to put up a fight, but their customer service, through chat, was excellent. I will use this service again in the future.

I signed up as a college student to help get started with my resume. This website is very easy to understand and a huge help when starting out. Ive gotten 7 job offers with the resume Live Career helped me build. When it was time to delete my account it was very easy and everyone was nice and helpful!

Easy to cancel
June 16, 2016

I expected them to push back, try to keep me enrolled. My only issue is I had to call back as the first call that put me thru to the cancellation line wasn't picked up, although I could hear people talking in the background.

Excellent Customer Service

Roberto E. Provided excellent customer service. He resolved an issue with billing that I was most upset about. It is helpful that you keep an account or record of your chat sessions with Live Career to provide support to your claims.

Phone call
July 18, 2016

I called this morning to inquire about a charge posted to my account.
He explained to me that there was a membership fee. I explained to him that I didn't realize that there will be a fee if I didn't cancel before the 15 days.
He canceled my membership and refunded me for my charge.
He was a very helpful and polite young man.

Great website and people
June 16, 2016

I initially signed up for a free trial, totally misunderstanding and blindly omitting the fact that if I didn't cancel my membership, I'd be charged $29.80 monthly. However my mistake was swiftly taken care of and reversed by a representative named Alex. Excellent customer service skills, he made me feel comfortable and grateful. You're lucky to have an employee like him
