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.

This is very misleading that you can't download the resume I spent an hour working on before entering my credit card information.

Service should not be advertised as free, be upfront about the cost to download before having users build a resume

They listed themselves on google as a free resume builder and then made you pay to get your resume that you spent time building...

Isn't free like almost every other resume builder, but if I can immediately cancel the subscription to just get my resume, I'll be happy.

Bull$#*! that they waited to charge me after I spent 25 minutes building a resume after clicking on an ad that says "Get your free resume with ResumeGenius." False advertisement. They got my $2.95! On my way to cancel.

I looked up FREE resume templates. You should tell about the pricing up front. Very deceiving!

Was very obviously marketed as a free tool and then I'm forced to pay for the service after completing the build of my resume. Good tools, shady marketing
