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.

Websites should tell the price upfront instead of after the work has been completed. It is a bad business model that leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

I signed up with the promise that the service was free and then bait and switch - I spent time formatting my resume only to find out I have to pay to download it. That is BAD BUSINESS and a very shady practice. However, I paid anyway because I had already done the work.

Your website came up under "free resume builder" and it doesn't tell you there is a fee until you've typed in all your information.
