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 hate that the $2.95 charge was completely hidden until the end. I feel it's false advertising to call your service a "Free Resume Builder" if you can't even download the resume you just made without paying!

False advertisement!

False advertisement! Not Free. You have to "upgrage" to get your resume at the end.

Bait & switch
June 15, 2023

Bait & switch. The home page indicated the resume would be free. Spent an hour plus entering info. Only to learn I had to pay to download my resume or refer back to any of it.

Very easy and simple to use

Very easy and simple to use. Would wish to edit the actual text within the template to have a better-finalized resume. But still great and amazing to use with how fast and easy it is.

I wish it would've made it clear that there was going to be a fee at the end. It's fine that I have to pay a fee, but there was no indication of that when I started.

Simple and easy to complete. But it claims to be a 'free resume', I was not pleased when I ended up having to pay for it! That is considered false advertisement
