Omg! This is the best thing I've done for my self. Worth every penny I spent. Within a week that I received my resume I applied at a new company and got an interview for next Tuesday. I want to thank Nikki who was my writer. She did an amazing job.

Resume rewrite.
January 28, 2020

I was at a point that I was not getting many call backs on my job search. So I decided to have my resume rewritten using "TopResume", it took about 2 days and when I received the draft i looked very good. I immediately started sending it out. Within 2 days I had 4 interviews set-up. A real game changer. Thanks so much.

AWFUL!
January 30, 2020

The writers are from Punjabi which is not what you need to speak locally to your American or European market. They don't honor their guarantee based on vague fine print from their FAQ. They take too long for everything. Customer service is non existent

FRAUDULENT SERVICE
January 27, 2020

This service is only interested in charging you, they provide NO PROFESSIONAL services.
How do I know? I paid them several hundred dollars to rework my resume with their Executive Priority Resume Writing Package, then less than a year later, I submitted the exact resume they reworked and they said it was substandard, cluttered and not appealing to the eye, and needed reworked. THEY CRITIQUED THEIR OWN WORK, which they feel is substandard.

FRAUD!

Great service and quality product.
January 21, 2020

My writer took my 4+ page resume and turned it in to a professional 2 page work of art. I will definitely be going back for the cover letter and the LinkedIn revamp.

I had the most shocking experience with a "writer" if you can call him that.
No only did this person not have an idea of the industry, he didn't seem to have any knowledge of the Australian worlforce. It seems that Top Resume got a higschool student or someone on the Dole to wote my resume.

WORST PLACE STAY AWAY
January 20, 2020

All I have to say is STAY AWAY! This is set up like a scam site! I ran into topresume.com and EVEN after reading some really bad reviews I decided to still give them a shot. It was a Saturday night and I needed to find a place to have a resume done in a shorter amount of time and they advertised this here. I ended up paying for the service and also added on a 48 hour rush which cost me an additional $75. The 48 hour rush service never indicated anything else than 48 hours which I paid for. Monday comes and I'm concerned because I never heard a word from anyone at topresume.com, I called them and they told me that I MIGHT have it by the end of Wednesday. I was appalled by this as I explained the rush I paid for and the time frame I needed it by. She told me she will try and get a hold of the writer but no guarantees. What!?!?! No guarantees?!? I paid for this to be expedited and now they are telling me they can give me a free cover letter. I told them I don't care for anything but what I paid for and the timeframe needed. I never heard back. I emailed them again on Tuesday and told them if they can't have the resume done by the end of the night to refund me. I never heard back. I emailed first thing on Wednesday and told them to refund me as services were never rendered, I never heard back. On late Wednesday I get a email with a ROUGH draft! Unreal! They completely ignored all my messages and slid in the resume as a very basic right draft with missing inserts. The resume is useless and I wasted 5 days on this place. Save yourself the time. The customer service here is as bad as it gets! They don't care one bit about you and they don't seem to care about deadlines or requests. For that, I would never ever recommend and should've stayed away from the start
