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.

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.

Issues with backward words
March 18, 2023

Issues with backward words. I use Chrome for everything and was told I needed to switch browsers which would have required a download. Not as user friendly as it should have been, but I was to far down the path to switch to a different company.

Great until I was charged as it was advertised free. After putting all the work into the resume, I didn't really have a choice but to pay.

The GUI is attractive, but there are some significant bugs to work out. For example, sometimes while trying to type into the entry fields, the cursor resets to the beginning of the line after each keystroke. Also, at one point, the builder would not accept a Province (Canada) and would only accept a State.

Formatting looks deceiving
March 18, 2023

Formatting looks deceiving. One page it looks like it's on one page, other previews it looks too long to fit on one page.

Just thought I would at least get one that I could use and see how easy to edit in Word so disappointed that I went through all the work and had to sign up to actually utilize it.

Not happy that the website wasn't upfront about what was offered for free. It was only explained after spending an hour creating my resume.

Should be noted as a subscription based before leading the customer to fill out the required resume information. Advertised on google to be a free service. Not translucent with the customer. Would not recommend to anyone. Also, the price every 14 days is absolutely ridiculous.

So far my experience has been great. The site is easy to use and has great templates and recommendations for speaking points on my resume. So far it has been the free version so waiting to see how the paid version goes before I provide an extra star.
