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.

If you are going to offer a subscription service, there should be a free option. The only reason I paid for this is because I was pressed for time, otherwise I would have exited the MOMENT I saw a paywall. Waiting until the end of the process to show that there is a paywall is also a really bad business practice meant to prey on stupid people that don't want to take the time to look elsewhere.

Far too expensive
June 22, 2022

Far too expensive. Should be $25 to create your resume the first time and then $5 every time you need to update it. Lost your minds charging $25 to update it. I will be taking time to find a new way to do this because your service is complete garbage for the cost.

You tricked me

You tricked me. 24.95 is a lot to pay, way to prey on people out of work who are looking for a job. Shame on you.

A cheaper monthly option or just an outright purchase of a program with a 1 time fee would be preferred. More template choices preferred as well.
