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.
Highly professional thank you for your support. I would love to refer you to friends and family
Very good well done a professional job on time thank you
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.
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.
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.
I was appalled with end product. There was no substance to what I received. Do not use this company
Eye opening approach to resume creation and targeted for specific jobs.
Adam was great. My resume and cover letter look extremely professional and I am ready to start applying for jobs with a much higher confidence.
Astounding in every way. Opened my eyes to many different aspects of presenting yourself.
Helpful review for a free experience. Definitely useful to get a different prospective.
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."
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.
It was helpful. Thanks for reviewing and editing my resume.
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.
I can't add anything or change my resume to taylor it to a company without a membership to edit.
Answer: It depends, if you want to pay for a mediocre format riddled with errors that has the language equivalent of a high-schooler. You will end up paying $100 for something you could have sat down and done in an hour and a half.
Answer: Hi Carolyn, Thanks for asking! The process will begin with a questionnaire. If after you submit the questionnaire, the writer has follow-up questions, the writer will reach out.
Answer: Be careful with this company. They post 1000s of fake reviews to hide the real ones. Note that they do not post their phone number or address on the website. I had to file with the BBB to get a refund after never being contacted. This is a SCAM company - you are better off writing your own resume, trust me on this
Answer: You will not get your money refunded, no matter how bad the result is. I tried.
Answer: Because this company is a sham. Please do not waste your money. There are plenty of reputable services that you can use.
Answer: I second that, Alex! This service is a sham! I've been assigned 3 different writers and have received a subpar product back each time, written by someone who's first language is clearly not English. The best part, I paid $100+ for a "LinkedIn Rewrite" and this was where the writer copied and pasted their version of my resume into the boxes for LinkedIn. You've got to be kidding me... Don't waste your money!
Answer: I am on month two and still have not received a finalized document. Currently, I've gone through 3 different writers and still do not have a usable document. My original resume, cover letter and LinkedIn are far better products than what I've received from TopResume. If you are thinking of using this service, please PASS. It has been a tremendous waste of my resources: time and money. Best of luck to you.

Answer: Don't waste your money. All of these "reviews" are probably fake. I actually paid them $189 and never even got a usable resume. Find a better company. These guys are crooks!
