Very sneaky not knowing that you are going to have to pay in order to get your resume
The website navigation and layout is easy and self explanatory. So far i'm enjoying this website very much. I referred here by a friend of mine.
Thanks for rating us 5 stars, we're so happy that you're satisfied with our builder and that we were able to help you.
I wanted similar to one I already found on the site but thats not what I got
Thank you, your feedback is much appreciated, Lori!
It's easy to do a resume through Live Career, they do everything for you. All you have to do is put in the information.
Thank you, Valerie, we’re happy to hear that it was as easy as 1, 2, 3!
Very fast and efficient process to create resume or cover letter
Thank you, Aaron, we truly appreciate your feedback, happy customers make our days brighter.
Easy to use. Variety of templates to choose from. Helpful writing suggestions.
Thank you for sharing your feedback and rating us five stars!
This site stated the resume was free but I am being charged for the resume which is misleading
Thank you for the feedback, Chloe.
To clarify, we offer two types of accounts, the first one being a basic access account that gives you the chance to try out our builder before deciding to purchase our premium features, this account allows you to download a plain text version completely free. We also provide a full access account for a small fee that grants you 14-days to print, email, or download your documents using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the free account.
In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our 14-day trial if you are not satisfied with our services.
Easy to use, good suggestions and hopefully positive results.
Thank you, Jody, we’re happy to hear that it was as easy as 1, 2, 3!
LiveCareer was a good choice for me! It was quick and painless! Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your feedback and rating us five stars, Nan!
I think the way that you set your "FREE" cover letter up to be is wrong and will immediately be cancelling my order once i receive this one. You should not promote "FREE" when you charge. I am in need of it immediately and that is the ONLY reason I will pay. However, I will take every opportunity to discredit this website going forward
Thank you for the feedback, Christine!

This service steals your information, keeps uploading your resume in different forms, you contact support and nothing is resolved or is taken down and then posted at a later time. IF you DO NOT WANT your personal information displayed I highly recommend that you do not use this service as your private information will be posted and top of any google search regardless of whether your account was private or set to not display said information to the public. I have contacted and worked with support countless times, but without any real care or attention to the serious issue at hand. DO NOT USE THEM!

Easy to create, looks very professional, great templates, and pretty cheap.
Thank you for sharing your feedback and rating us five stars!
You should explain pricing up front, in an easy to find manner. It's a good product and worth the $3.00- so why be shifty? It just makes me trust you a little less.
Thank you for the review and for rating us four stars, Erika!
Experience has been pretty good.
I do not like the date format and I would like to override certain sections to put in manually.
Thank you for the review and for rating us four stars!
I don't find LiveCareer clear. There are updates that could be made that make navigating the site and making choices on the site much more informative.
Thank you, Danielle, we’re always open to new suggestions on ways we can improve and your feedback helps us do just that!
I found the whole process so much easier with the excellent choice of templates PLUS the suggestion phrases to plug in that are relevant to your title... loved those!
Thank you for the glowing review, Wendy!
It was a wonderful experience. I was lead thrushes whole process.

Answer: Our free account gives you the opportunity to try out our resume builder before deciding to purchaser ability to print, email, or download your resume and cover letters are features included in our paid subscription and not listed as a feature of the free account. However you can download a plain text version of your resume for free. To be able to use all premium futures of the service we offer customer a 14 days access for $1.95 and we indicate up front that it will auto renew after the 14 days and that it can be cancel at any time. The auto renewal is listed with the features of the 14 day subscription on the sales page, as well as on the payment and confirmation pages. We also send a payment confirmation email stating the date and amount of the auto- renewal. We do offer several ways to cancel including by phone, live chat, email and self-cancellation in your Account Settings. We are very committed to providing great customer service. We take all feedback very seriously. It will be forwarded to our Marketing team. Please contact us directly if you have any further issues. You can email me at [email protected] or send us a private message here, we will be more than glad to address all your concerns. Best Regards, Live Career
Answer: This is what the site advertised: For 14 day access, $14.95, and for a year $39.80. However, signing up for ANY service aloows the site to store your payment information for further billing, and getting in touch with them, much less obtaining help is nigh impossible. After two weeks they will pull $39.80 MONTHLY from your payment method (please see my review and others on Google and yelp for further verification of this).
Answer: Do not use this site!
Answer: I had to cancel my Debit Card account with Bank of America, because the Bank refused to block LiveCareer from my account. I wonder if they are in cahoots or what? I believe a class action suit may be required so we can get our funds back.
Answer: Call your bank and change your card number Call them and let them know you have contacted your bank and will contact the better business bureau of you don't get a full refund. Then contact the better bBB and file a formal complaint. You will have a refund within a week. That's how I got my money back
Answer: Dont waste your time trying to contact them. I went to my bank and had all future billing refused AND I went to the State Attorney General and reported them.
Answer: Hello, Sarah - Thank you for getting in touch with us, our subscriptions are auto-renewing, we have a continuous billing feature that charges your account after the 14-day period and every month for the regular price afterward. However, if you are only interested in the 14-trial and wish to avoid any recurring charges simply cancel your subscription before beforehand. We hope that this helps clear things up for you, if you have any other questions or concerns, please let us know. Best regards, LiveCareer US


Our apologies for any misunderstanding. To use our builder does charge you for the service we provided or unless you register for a 14-day free trial and cancelled during that period of time. Also, we do offer free downloadable templates that you can work on Microsoft word: https://www.livecareer.com/resume/templates, hope this helps you find the right resume for you.
