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.

There are a few things I can't figure out how to change and I am fairly tech savvy.

Very easy and well equipped with helpful features, or course the essay/overview part is a little unnatural in my opinion, it's very well done for such a system.

Very easy to edit my resume, although the transfer of my file into it didn't quite go right, things were kind of jumbled up. Very disappointed that I have to pay a subscription when the ad certainly implied that it was free. Free up to a point, I guess.

Was not made 100% aware I would need to pay for a subscription to access my resume. Would have appreciated being made aware BEFORE inputing all my information. I will say the process is smooth and the templates are very nice.

Website makes you pay $3 for a free trial that if you don't cancel, takes $25 a month for getting a stupid resume.

I was under the impression from the opening page of the site that this was a free service and after having done as much work on this as I have feel like it would have been a waste of time not to pay.

Honestly a scam

Honestly a scam. Who needs a monthly subscription for a resume? I've spent about 75 dollars just trying to get this thing downloaded.
