It is terrible that you advertise a free resume and then charge to actually get it.

I searched for a free resume builder
February 20, 2022

I searched for a free resume builder. If I am not told that I will be paying before I make my resume, then you are potentially wasting customers time and are being misleading.

Great Overall
January 21, 2022

Great Overall. Very simple to use, but had some quirks (forcing you to use phone numbers and dates, and not providing enough space for a reference's job title were a couple)

I didn't like the fact that after spending all my time and energy, when I am ready to print the resume it's asking for money. It should have been clear and mentioned in the beginning. Then I would have felt like it was a choice. I find it a bit like a scam and dirty marketing strategy.

I used Resume Genius when I retired from my banking job after 22 years, the step by step was easy in Sept. 2021 and is still easy in Jan. 2022. FYI every job I applied for I received and interview and a offer. Offers from two difference county Sheriff offices, one from the hospital and; and offer for an admin. Position in a near by county. I accepted the job at the hospital because it is part time. Thank you Resume Genius!

Your website said it was a free resume template, but I had to pay to use it. It would have been nice to know that before I spent the time.

The main page said it was free, but then you would not allow me to get the my resume without a payment. Very false advertisement, I will cancel once I have my resume.

Great software!
January 20, 2022

Great software! User friendly and includes plenty of solid resume templates. The only change I would make is to allow sections to be rearranged when building a resume for when job applicants wish to list something higher up than the resume after adding a section.
