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.

Great, but I'm not going to make another resume for a long time. I wish I could pay a one time fee because I'm just going to cancel immediately after I download my resume. It feels like Resume Genius is aiming to make money off of people who forget to cancel and that feels dishonest. The product works well though.

This is probably my fault for not paying enough attention, but I kind of feel like I got suckered into this given that it "looked" like it was free.

Bait and switch
September 8, 2021

Bait and switch. "Free" resume builder but they charge you to actually download it AFTER you finish filling in everything and making an account. Nothing about this is shown on their main page. Header actually says "FREE resume builder" very misleading to customers

I wish there was a way to slightly edit certain areas of the templates- for example, none of them prominently display contact info, and I believe name and contact should be the easiest things to see at first glance when reviewing resumes.

I had to call to customer service to clarify the use of "subscription" before I paid for ResumeGenius services. I was able to speak with a human being (Casey) who not only clarified but was extremely kind and helpful.
