Didn't support my Chime Visa card. I entered it 3 times and there was $31.00 in it. Bummer

The process of building a resume was easy and quick, but although it said it was
free, I had to pay to get the resume I just created. There is plenty of free templates on the internet, but I was in a hurry and this one was done! I just hate being misled.

I was unhappy how they made you feel it was free until you had spent all your time into finishing it and you don't want to start all over.

The system isn't developed to write federal resumes. I had to delete and force changes in areas to get it to keep the required information at the top of the resume. I also didn't like the "free" option but once the resume was created I could only get access to it by paying $2.95 for a 2wk trial.

Kinda feels like a scam that you claim up front that it's free and then charge money to get the resume you've just spent hours building.

Don't advertise free resume building if you ultimately have to pay to actually retrieve the resume. Very misleading and very frustrating.
