The resume builder was easy to use and I got good results. But I was annoyed that the details on the cost were not shared until AFTER you finish the work. The cost was not high, but it would be nice if that info was shared up front, Also, t would be nice to be able to add color print and other format features such as a selection of bullets, etc.

The site is very easy to use and very helpful. However, I was not happy with not being told that I would have to pay for a subscription up front.

Charge should be upfront, not held until after you spend so much time creating your resume. It takes more than 15 mins. It has been a bit cumbersome to go back and forth to figure out editing vs finding the format I want to use.

You say it's a free resume builder but charge on the way out after i've put in a ton of work... I'm paying to get my resume so I can get a job. But your practice is MANIPULATIVE.

It would have been nice to know of the charges before creating my resume, but the program took all my fear of resume writing away.

Very easy to use tool. Certainly makes the process of creating and designing a resume much simpler, and certainly less stressful. Now my resume looks great, and I can feel good about this sheet of paper representing me.
