Since I moved from NY 8 years ago to start a family I have been determined to find a Staff (Not Freelance) Job NOT Traveling Every Weekend, so I can be a part of my (Now 5 & 8 year old) children grow-up.
I have been sending resumes and paying LiveCareer a ton of Money for 6 Years (?) and last week HR Colleagues at DISNEY, ESPN, ABC, and NBC told me that the ATS format is making my extensive (TV) (EMMY AWARD WINNING) experience Unorganized, Confusing, and not Referenceable.

Also told that many companies see this and remove my Resume from consideration Immediately & Forever.

Then as I try to fix this... Not only are you harassing me for More $ (+/- $1K Thus Far - Paying for Every Google Extension separately for some reason) I keep getting warnings that LiveCareer (AutoApply) is not supported by Chrome. Last time I checked they were both Google Products.

I was wondering why I was getting follow-ups on every FREE site job search (Indeed/LinkedIn/Glassdoor) other than LiveCareer.

Cherry on the top... Wife and I spent 5 hours trying to remedy this yesterday and then I go to log on this AM only to find out Live-Career did not save any changes because (BILLING/Expired Credit Card - Why would I find that After I logged off?

Thank you for the feedback, Barbara.

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.

Takes all the pain out of resume writing. Even though I was irritated by the "surprise" of having to subscribe to download my resume, it was so easy that I thought it was worth it.
