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.

Was advertised as a free resume resume builder but basic services require purchase of an atuo renewing subscription. Waste of my $#*!ing time.

When searched on a search engine your site claims to be free. It is not free but that is not revealed until the end. It's terrible customer service and a lie.

I was under the impression this was a completely free service, it wasn't... so my experience was good up until I found out after trying to download that I would have to pay.

You guys do not provide an option for me to put in a Paypal account nor use a gift card to use this service. This is evil and you guys are stealing my information for your purposes to sell my data. Especially when I may want to use another service and you guys want to red flag an account for changing information. I work with a security engineer and we know about this malicious act that the public doesn't know.
