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.

The site said FREE and it is not. False advertising.

The resume looks excellent, but marketing yourself as free and then putting a charge at the end kind of took the cherry off the cake.

IT SHOULD BE NOTED ON THE WEBSITE THAT RESUME GENIUS IS A INTERNATIONAL COMPANY AND THAT THE SECURITY FEATURE ON US CONSUMER BANK ACCOUNTS NEED TO BE TURNED ON BEFORE MAKING A PURCHASE! I WASTED A LOT OF TIME BECAUSE OF THIS!

I had to try 3 different bank cards until it finally accepted one. All had plenty of money! Also it advertised a free resume then you get to the end and they make you pay.

I don't like that you advertise "FREE" resume creation, then lock it behind a paywall. That's dishonest and misleading business practice. If you had been more up front that I'd get the quality of resume I am for $3, I probably would have still used the service.

Some people have cards from Cashapp and because it is an ebank you guys don't accept the card. That is infuriating. I put time and energy into creating a resume via your service and only to get to the end and find this out. Form of payment should be displayed before people waste their valuable time.

I clicked on a free link but there is nothing free and you have to pay for it. Wasting my time if you didn't say free I wouldn't have used it

It's not even the amount of less than $3 that frustrates me...it's the fact that you call it a free resume. Yes, it's free, unless you need to USE it for something. I would much rather know that it will cost me to download, print, etc.

I hate that you think it's free until you complete the resume then you have to pay and not just once every single month until you cancel.
