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.

You guys decide to advertise yourselves to me as a free resume builder on Google and your website. I spend all this time plugging into your builder, then come to your payment page when I try to download. Deceptive and sleezy. Do not call or email me.

I love the bullet point ideas when entering employment experience, I do wish I could had liberty in customizing the organization of information. I would love for my skills to be listed under the objective rather than at the bottom of the resume.

Easy and fast to create a resume

Easy and fast to create a resume - but wish you had been up front with the cost. It feels a little sneaky to slip that part in at the end.
