Overall this is a fantastic resume generator. A was to include explanations for gaps in employment and/or to make small edits to wording would be super helpful.
Easy peasy to create a resume! Only catch? Can't use the resume unless you pay for it
Thank you for your review! Glad we were able to help.

I thought I was paying 7.95 for a month and it came up $95. The small print was very small. Also you should advertise the fee at the beginning. This is dishonest business practices. Your link came up when I googled "free resume template".

Said free but had to pay 2.95. That is not the issue but do not need to pay 25.00 a month

It's very deceptive to promote a free resume when in actuality you really do not get one. You get a text version which no one can do anything with. You force people to add their credit cards when you know most will forget then be charged days later.
