Top resume did an amazing job. They were communicative and responsive to my concerns. They were able to optimize my resume and gear it towards my employment goals
The communication, service, and finished product (Resume, cover letter and LinkedIn Profile) were all of exceptional quality. I would highly recommend the service for anyone in the job market or just looking to update their resume.
It was a very exciting experience and a very professional job done
The final product was very impressive. I would recommend TopResume to anyone who needs an update or a new resume.
This website is a total SCAM! Do not give them any money. I ordered the resume and cover letter package and they were supposed to give me my first draft the next week. IT TOOK 4 WEEKS! And the results? It was like a high schooler wrote my resume! It was beyond unprofessional. When there was a delay, I tried to call their customer service and request a refund! THERE IS NO CUSTOMER SERVICE! If you don't believe me, call before you order anything from them! This is the most stupid purchase I have ever done online and I feel Stupid! They are total cons and this website is a total fraud!
It's good to use TopResume site for develop our resume with easy and in less time.
Belinda H was very professional. She tageted all my key points. I had some dates that needed to be fixedI on the resume and once that was worked out, everything was great. I am very please with the service.
There were quite a few grammatical errors and typos that weren't worth going back-and-forth about so I just fix them myself. It's worth running it through an application like Grammarly to make sure you have everything right. I would definitely not send it out without a proofread.

Efficient timeline with the resume writer in creating an updated professional resume and cv. I'm extremely happy and confident that my expertise is now exemplified in my resume. I have been underselling myself with my resume for many years. Thank you so much for the excellent service!
My resume is shining now, and getting the attention. Well done! Thank you!
Thank you SO much Ahmed for the amazing client service. I LOVE my resume and I am excited to upload and use it!
Outstanding job! Great layout and walk through of the process.
With the job market saturated with millions of unemployed Americans, I thought it would be time to have a professional review my resume since it has been some time since I have revamped my resume. I provided them my resume, cover letter, and completed the questionnaire of my accomplishments. I stressed that my resume mostly focused on what I did and not accomplished. I would like for it to focus on what my resume accomplished.
After waiting for about 10 days, I got back basically my own resume with the same content. They either swapped out a single verb or shuffled the same words around in a sentence - the end of the sentence to the beginning and beginning to the end. Besides giving me back my own resume with its same content but with a layout and format change, it was littered with proofreading errors. I showed a colleague of mine who recruits for IBM. He was in shock that this was a paid professional with these kind of errors. My last name and phone number were incorrect, but there were so many grammatical errors - missing commas, subject - verb tense agreements, and incorrect words such as using improvising instead of using improving. There were several sentences that just didn't make sense.
I immediately responded to the writer, it took him 5 days to respond back to my concerns and then asked me to provide a redline version of the draft. So I had to provide my professional writer a road map to all the mistakes. He responded that he would immediately make the necessary changes and address my concerns that none of the accomplishments that I provided to him were not used in my revised resume. I waited 2 weeks to get back the redline version I had already provided him and he swapped out some content that was from my original resume into the second draft that was not previously used.
I again responded as to what happened. What happened to my list of accomplishments? Why did this take 2 weeks to complete? My revised resume sounds the same with no added value. Its been crickets from the writer. Beware of them.
Top resume writers are not good resume writers. I had the worse experience with them not once but twice. They are not good at what they do and are very unprofessional. I had to instruct the writer on how to format and write my resume so I basically wrote it myself.
The promise a re-write with a professional writer. They do not have professional writers. They hire people off the internet for $10-20 a piece, who copy and paste what they can find about your industry and give you back a ridiculous garbage of a resume. Sentences that don't make sense. Long, winding and repetitive. Unreadable. Stay away, do not waste your money, because there is no way you are getting a refund.
I had been working for MANY years and wanted to update my resume to reflect my previous career but also focus on my most recent. There were several suggestions made to improve my resume. Even though I thought I did a good job writing my resume it pales in comparison to the final product. Well worth the investment and I HIGHLY recommend! You will not be disappointed!
I was very satisfied with the outcome. Karen was very helpful, she listened to what I wanted to accomplish and delivered in a timely manner. We only had one round of revisions. She created a brand new persona for me and made me relevant in today's market place. I already got 2 calls because of my new resume!
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!
