Don't waist your money
November 6, 2020

I think there are better resume writing services out there. This company charges to speak with an actual writer, which is bizarre. I was rushed and was expected to have my order closed out within a week. Horrible, customer service. I finally was reassigned to a writer by the name of Jenny who did a great job, I am not unhappy with her, I am unhappy with the business model and the poor customer service experience due to the company's way of doing things. I will not recommend Top Resume to anyone going forward. And for the record, I paid to have my LinkedIn profile rewritten and it was a complete waste of money. I was handed a template, which I could have done myself. Very disappointed.

Resume Expectations
November 5, 2020

I did not like the communication or lack of. The resume turned out ok but could've been made to look better and I should've had more opportunity to work with the writer and get feed back but I didn't.

Exactly what I was looking for!
October 6, 2020

The team at TopResume exceeded my expectations! They were swift to respond, took all my notes and revisions, and made sure I felt confident with the final deliverables before anything was finalized. It really was a frictionless transaction and I'll definitely use them again for future services.

Absolutely amazing service!
October 6, 2020

I've never used a service like this before so I was unsure of what to expect. The writer that was assigned to my order was BEYOND professional, helpful and friendly. They listened to all my feedback, even though they already knew what to do and the resume that i got back is incredible! I'm so thankful that I used TopResume and I have been referring all my friends/family to them!

I was hoping they would improve my resume. What came back felt like it was written for a junior sales or marketing role, rather than an experienced IT project manager. Then no response for some time when I complained. They then assigned another writer, who was just as bad and will not enter into a dialogue. They will not answer direct questions. I sent my original and new versions to 3 people, each said my original was better for me. Do not waste your money on these people.

Excellent Service and Support
September 28, 2020

After 30+ years in the workforce, I needed help in crafting a pretty diverse background. TopResume was great to work with. I felt they were able to pull together the best of my resume and make it clear and concise. The consultant assigned to me was great. We had a couple of reviews until I felt it really described well my personality, accomplishments, education and experience. I would highly recommend them to anyone who feels their resume needs a "tune up."

Amazing Results

I worked with my specialist in order to revise my resume. After a week and one revision, I was content with the result and posted my resume online. Not even a day passed and I was getting multiple views, emails, and even some calls.

TopResume is a SCAM
October 26, 2020

I was very surprised as I expected a personal service making my CV better than it was before, whereas what TopResume sent me looks like something coming out of a "google translate" type automated tool. The CV has lost all of its specificity and multiple points are grossly incorrect. I have exchanged multiple times with the reviewer, but there were too many comments. Maybe this service would have been good if I had no CV to begin with, but in my case, I have lost 200$ in a scam. I have asked for a refund but have not received it yet.
