ResumeGenius Reviews Summary

The company has established a strong reputation for its user-friendly resume-building platform, which is praised for its intuitive design, effective templates, and time-saving capabilities. Many customers express satisfaction with the polished results and helpful prompts that enhance their resumes. However, concerns regarding the transparency of pricing practices are prevalent, with some users feeling misled by the marketing of free access. Additionally, issues with customization options and the accuracy of information fetched have been noted. Overall, while the service is highly regarded for its quality and ease of use, addressing pricing clarity could further enhance customer trust.

It makes it seem as it is a "free" service to use, but then won't let you download anything until you pay.

Good experience but some discrepancies on the CV templates, the fonts can be too big and look unprofessional. Some text has been put in bold when it shouldnt be (for example random words in job experience box)

Other Than not being able to email until adding payment, and rewriting it several times because the system would lock me out, it was great.

You should not allow people to make the resume after you pay. Letting people work on it and then hitting them with a paywall is obnoxious and I only paid for it because this is the fifth site to do that. I have wasted a lot of time and all I want is for my resume to be AST compatible. Do you resumes even do that? At this point I have no idea!

Advertisement says it is a free service, but it is not. This is misleading and because of it, I would not recommend resume genius.

I don't like how you have to pay to download the resume, and that they will automatically bill you even if you just pay for the 14 day access which why would you need a expensive monthly access for building a resume. Seems like you are hoping for people to forget about it so you can scam them out of more money.
