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.

Don't like that it's advertised as free until you try to DL. Other than that, it's good.

I wish it would allow me to personalize it more, for example letting me put the year I'm going to graduate from school.

Advertised as free, but not actually free. Subscriptions with auto-renewal at a higher premium are unscrupulous, deceptive, and immoral. Would not recommend.

Advertised as free, no sign-up required. However you need to pay a $2.95 fee to save your resume file for the first 14 days, after that a monthly fee is incurred. There are a number of templates, however the sections cannot be moved because their format is fixed. The sections should be able to be moved drag & drop style for maximum versatility.
