LiveCareer Reviews Summary

The company's customer service approach is characterized by a mix of commendable support and significant concerns regarding billing practices. Many customers praise the helpfulness, professionalism, and genuine nature of the representatives, noting positive experiences in resolving issues quickly. However, a troubling trend emerges with numerous complaints about unauthorized charges and difficulties in canceling subscriptions, leading to feelings of frustration and distrust. While the quality of the service, particularly in resume building, is acknowledged, the company's billing transparency and communication practices require urgent improvement to enhance overall customer satisfaction and trust.

I found it generic, hard to build my resume with no options for someone with experience/history such as mine that doesn't fit into this current generic environment that employers supposedly use now for choosing/eliminating applicants for further review.

Your charge for a resume that advertise as free on the website then charge a fee afterwards. This is awful business practice

To clarify, we are in fact free, Janet.

For the benefit of our users, we offer a Basic Access account that gives you the chance to try out our resume builder before deciding to purchase our premium features, this account allows you may download a plain text version of your resume completely free.

We also provide a Full Access account for a small fee that offers a 14-day trial period. This gives you the ability to print, email or download your resume and cover letters using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the Basic Access account. In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our trial fee.

I found this service by looking for similar resumes to help with wording. Then I used the free trial to create my own resume because I was impressed with the examples I found. Once I had the full service I LOVED how helpful and customizable it was to specific opportunities. I wouldn't normally pay for a service where I could do it myself for free - but features offered are just too good to pass up!

Our website offers a Basic Access account completely free which allows you to download a plain text version of your resume, Ruth.

However, upon finishing the document, we also give the option of continuing with our premium features if users are satisfied with the end result. This gives you the ability to print, email or download your resume and cover letters using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the Basic Access account. In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our trial fee.
