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.

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.

Easy format
April 6, 2020

Easy format. Comes up under free resume but costs $2 to download and print. A little deceptive.

Your link said free entirely and no card needed until after you complete your resume then you require payment to download. Total scam and waste of time.

While the options to get started on my resume were great, it was advertised as a "free resume builder" on another site, only to route me to this site where the resume was held hostage until I paid for either a 14-day trial or a monthly plan. Moreover, the trial auto-renews to $39.95 while the monthly plan is $7.95. If you intend to use this site regularly, it seems like the monthly plan is worth it, but something advertised as "free" is not free if it allows you to finish a project and then holds the final product behind a paywall. However, I am still satisfied with the templates and step-by-step instruction that this site provides for the resumes and if I ever need to make more, now that I know the prices, I would certainly consider using it again.

I Google AD I clicked on said I could download my resume for free... So I am not happy about having to sign up for a $24 subscription to download the resume I just spent the last 2 hours creating.

Job titles were limited, prewritten bullet points were not entirely accurate or it was a list of things you could do even though you may only be able to do half of them.
