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.

Overall, while the service is highly regarded for its quality and ease of use, addressing pricing clarity could further enhance customer trust.

I had created a resume but then couldn't log in. I got account assistance to log in but all that work was lost.

You know y'all are manipulative for allowing people to spend time and effort making a "free" resume just to make them pay to be able to download it.

Website forces you to buy the resume trial. Bait & switch by offering "free" but after working on it, it asks you to pay and isn't actually free. Card processing blurb doesn't work; have to re enter at least 5 times and then it finally processes.

Bad User Interface and Does not let you make changes per requirements. The education section shows completed coursework even though I selected I did not graduate. Stuck with this website as I created my resume on this site and need to update it for quick job application.

When correcting typo's was not as easy as word you have to erase the entire word plus if you went back to revise an area it erased what you were working on and cost another hour of my tome but at least it is finished

Multiple statements that building the resume would be free which I think is a lie and really negatively affected my experience.

You market creating a resume as free then charge to download it. And on a subscription basis at that which is pretty shady. However the platform was very seamless to navigate and I love the auto fill features. Maybe consider charging one time fees?

Outrageously overpriced for something you can do on chatGDP in 10 minutes. I am only using this because I have an interview today and I have a preexisting resume on this website that this company will not let me copy and paste. This company is not going to last long and for a good reason.
