Overall, while the service is highly regarded for its quality and ease of use, addressing pricing clarity could further enhance customer trust.

This is a terrible service
March 30, 2022

This is a terrible service- it gives you a great service to build a very appealing resume, but it advertises as free, but IT IS NOT. It's pretty frustrating to spend hours a wonderful resume, thinking the service is free, and then learning you have to pay, when I could have spent my time on a real free website.

You should say upfront that you are going to charge people. The advertisement suggested the templates were free. It's a great service, but I think it's misleading.

Only reason for not having 5 stars is that there is no way to change your job title in the header once the resume is created so you have to start over to do that.
