It said free, but you still have to pay to get your resume. That is misleading. Also, the auto renew at the high rate is kind of crazy

A little missleading at the start as it says free but as we all know nothing in life is free so I will give this a try as I am always worried about scams on the wide wide web. I hope this works and if so Thank you

Extra work
February 27, 2024

I chose to use this site because my previous resume info was stored but when changing dates of my education info, it wouldn't update. I tried multiple times before just deleting all my education info and adding it again. What was a 5 min update took me about 40 mins.
Price is a bit high for one resume, but apparently it's for a membership.
Once I get a job I won't need to change my resume until my next job so it's a bit unnecessary to have a renewing membership. Also, there are some templates where all your info fits on a page but others where the page cuts. It would be easier to see the page count when clicking on each template. Is it 1 page or 2? I don't want to click on it to look closely.

While the resume looks good, it is annoying how you get charged at the end when I thought it was free. I googled "free resume template".
