We monitor reviews for authenticity
Please indicate in the website intro that this site requires payment before downloading the resume, even in the 14-day trial. The "Create your resume in minutes. Try for free" is very misleading.
Your google search result describes this as a free resource. Only when I complete my resume and try to download am I prompted for payment. Your google result is misleading.

Making people pay to access resumes after letting them create them "for free" is extortionary
Hiding fees in checkout is also scummy

I really liked the ease of using the templates to update my resume. The AI tool was very helpful as well
Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share your positive experience! We're excited that the templates and AI tool made updating your resume simple and enjoyable!
This was so very helpful in building my resume! Easy to use. However, I paid for the short term membership. Now I just got charged an additional fee and can't figure out how to cancel it!

Quick, easy and very helpful. Highly recommend
The resume builder is stuck with the first image I used in my profile. No matter how I try to change the image, it always resets to the first one I used. Very disappointing.
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out. It sounds like you may have experienced a temporary technical issue while using our platform. We’ve checked on our end and did not detect any ongoing problems at the moment, so this may have been an isolated occurrence.
Our team will be happy to investigate further and help resolve the matter. We appreciate your understanding.

Customer Service Team.
When I first started this process of creating a resume, the website said it was free. When I got to the end, I was informed that I had to pay $2.25 to even download my resume. I wouldn't mind if it was included in the very beginning. It is frustrating as someone who was trying to update their resume.
Hello,
We apologize for any confusion and inconvenience. It's important to note that our services offer free access to download a plain text version. However, certain premium features require a subscription. We would like to take this opportunity to clarify any doubts.
We offer a full access account for a small fee. This account provides a comprehensive set of features, including the ability to print, email, or download your documents using our copyrighted templates. With the full access account, you'll have a 14-day window to utilize these advanced features to enhance your document creation process.
If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.
Best regards,
Customer Service Team.

This website claims to be free, but is in fact, not free
Hello,
We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience you may have experienced with our website. We understand your concerns and would like to provide some clarification. First, our platform offers two types of accounts: Basic Access (free) and Full Access (paid).
The basic access account is designed to allow users to explore our builder and try out its features before committing to a purchase. With this account, you can freely use the builder and create your documents. However, it's important to note that the basic access account only allows you to download a plain text version of your document, and it does not include our premium features.
On the other hand, we offer a full-access account for a small fee, which includes additional features such as printing, emailing, and downloading documents with our copyrighted templates, as well as other services to facilitate your job search (cover letters, interview tips, etc.). With the full-access account, you'll have 14 days to use these advanced features and optimize your document creation process. In the event you don't cancel your account within the first 14 days, your subscription will renew to our monthly access.
We continuously strive to improve our website and provide a seamless user experience. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team.
Best regards,
Customer Service Team.

Hello,

We understand how important it is for all costs to be clear from the beginning, and we’re reviewing our approach to ensure that users are fully informed before being asked to make a payment.

Editing the info is not streamline as I would like. Especially the Skills section, I would like to switch up the order to highlight what's relevant to the job posting I am applying for. Thank you.
Hello,
Thank you for your valuable feedback! We understand how important it is to tailor your resume, especially the Skills section, to match the specific requirements of each job application.
Our Resume Builder is designed to provide flexible editing options to help you customize your content. While currently the Skills section allows you to add, remove, and edit skills, we’re continuously working to improve the user experience, including making it easier to reorder sections.
In the meantime, to highlight the most relevant skills, you can manually adjust the order by deleting and re-adding skills in your preferred sequence. We appreciate your suggestion and will consider it as we enhance our platform.
Thank you for choosing our service, and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need any assistance!
You're advertising a FREE resume builder. N9ot 15 dollars a month, not a discount 2 dollars, but a FREE resume builder. It is not free to get the actual completed product, the thing that everyone is here to get. You are falsely advertising. I could not find a way to get a download of my resume without paying for it. And you have the gall to suggest "Oh, whoops, it looks like you may have left a low review BY MISTAKE"? I want a refund on this ASAP. You're taking advantage of folks having difficulty in their job searches. Go to hell.

Hello!
We appreciate you sharing your positive experience, and are thrilled to hear that you found the process so quick and easy. You finishing your resume in under 20 minutes truly means we’re doing something right. Best of luck with your next career steps!
I find it offensive you advertise as free and lead people through the whole process so they feel obligated to pay. It's a slimy and gross business practice
