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.

So far, so good. I can be a little long winded and you make things crisp and clear. I still can make my tweaks to fit me. So far, so good :)

It is ok for what I need right now but I do want to see where my pdf is before rating this experience. Also, I wasn't given any color options before downloading which is a bit drab.

I made the resume under the impression it was free to make. Ya, ok, it was free to make, I just would have no access to it until I paid for a free trial. Ugly business practices, in my opinion.

This was advertised as free resumes but in order to download or print the resume it requires that you give credit card information and make payment. Thats false advertising and you guys suck for preying on people who are OBVIOUSLY job hunting and dealing with financial stress.

It should mention that you have to pay in the beginning. A predatory practice holding the product back from being 5 stars

Marketed as a free resume builder, but doesn't mention it costs money to do anything with the resume once it's built.
Not impressed with ridiculous $24.95 recurring monthly charge after the "free" $3 trial.
