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.

I spent two hours creating my resume only to find out that if I want access to it I have to pay money for it when it was presented as a free learning service. The sheer underhandedness of it all is infuriating and I'll be telling everyone I know in need of a resume to stay far away from you guys.it would be one thing if you were upfront about it but you weren't. You should be ashamed.

Although the graphics are clean, they are not all organized optimally. Options are missing from the lists as well. Also calling it free resume help is misleading.

Very easy to use. My favorite feature is the suggested bullet points for different experiences to give you a baseline to customize what you gained from them.

Classic bait and switch

Classic bait and switch. This is "free" then, it's not. Unreal.

Should be up front about cost instead of hours after I've been editing my resume, I then learn the cost. Also, I would have done the 7.95 monthly option but when you choose that, you are required to pay 95.40 up front all at once so it really is false advertising with the 7.95 option.

Did not realize there was a fee until the end and you must pay to get your resume and can't immediately cancel the subscription but have to call during set hours M_F only.
