Great experience and very easy to use. I would recommend this to others
I came to ResumeGenius specifically because they offered great resume templates and resources for free. But after uploading my resume, that was not the case. Aside from that, there are wonderful templates and assistance available to build your resume.

There were no free templates available as stated online, and there was no option for me to fill in my cover letter. Disappointing.
When clicking on the link you are made to believe it is free, which it was not

Its a little confusing on how to save and continue at a later time. One time I backed out and had to start over. Besides that, everything has been really easy to use and it really helps me with the wording, look, and just general ease in making a resume. This has taken a lot of stress out of it.

Very easy to use, was recommended by a friend and I was a little concerned about it not being what i thought it would be. But I definitely give it 5 stars. Great app would recommend to anyone.

Why must you need a 5 star rating before I see my product. Why also must I need to write so much about something before I see results?

It said it was free, then charged me after I put hours into putting this all together. It constantly froze up and had issues.

It's just easy. Doesn't tell you how many pages though your resume ends up as, you kinda have to guess. I think this is 1.5 pages? Would love to keep it a clean 2 pager?

Everything said this was a FREE resume. I spent almost an hour building a resume for it to cost me in the end and be forced to sign up for reoccuring payments. THAT WOULD NOT BE FREE AND IS FALSE ADVERTISING.

There is no One Off payment option! It is not fair for me to be compelled to pay £2.95 for the first 14 days then for me start paying higher unwarranted monthly subscriptions.
I think your option will be more popular and acceptable if people are given option one off payment rather than this planned surprise deductions at a later date!
