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.

Hello,

Thank you for your feedback and for your time.

We would like to apologize on behalf of Resume Genius for the inconvenience that you have encountered, please let me clarify this situation, currently, we have a Lite Account where we do offer a Free resume template, however, this is in text format; the 14 dial trial services require a minimum payment of $2.95 for the resume and the cover letter.

Please feel free to reach our blog where you can find and enjoy our features like more templates, tips for your interviews and much more just clicking on this link https://resumegenius.com/blog

Have a great day.

It took me 10 minutes to checkout and the solution was to refresh the page and re-enter everything. The website also lets you spend almost an hour creating a resume then it tells you its not free. I do not mind paying the small fee but tell your customers that they cannot download it for free. I'm just trying to get a job and that is already a hassle and now I have to spend another 30 minutes trying to download my resume because I have to pay $2.95. Like I understand it is a business and it is how you attract customers but at the end of the day its annoying and unprofessional. Set the standards higher.

Very easy to use however would like to be able to customize it a little more. Also choosing different colors and templates was a little confusing.
