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.

You should tell people ahead of time that they will have to pay for their resume before they waste their time making it.

Got tricked into typing up my resume- thought it was totally free- but after putting in an hour, I'm pretty much obligated to pay so I can receive my hard-working resume.

Led me to believe this was a free service that required no credit card or subscription until after I spent 2 hours creating my resume and then wouldn't allow downloading or printing without payment. Of course, I had little choice at that point but to pay or face restarting the entire process on an HONEST site. You are deceptive and deserve zero stars

I mean it was easy
April 29, 2022

I mean it was easy. To be honest I used this service to create a fake resume to send to this dude I started talking to on tinder. I asked him what he looked for in a girl and his qualifications. I thought it would be a great ice breaker to send him to him and see what he thinks. If he doesn't think its funny, then I will either not use your service again, or make another one for someone else. He's pretty cute, so hopefully he thinks im hilarious. The ball is in his court. Dm me for updates

It said that resume building would be free but when you make it you have to go to checkout to get the resume. The service is fine, but they should be more upfront about the cost.

They stated this was a free service and it wasn't until the end that I was made aware of a charge. Its a subscription so remember to cancel.

The resume created is perfect. The only downside is how much it cost in order to get it.

Yeah, I love your service but I have a real issue with services that purport to be free and then force payment at the end. Just tell me at the beginning. I spent a lot of time going through this when I was very tired and had other things to do. I understand that's how you get people to spend money on you, so good job. But not cool.
