Amazing service
June 1, 2017

I had a great experience with TopResume and my write Tami. Amazing service and my resume was professionally done. Once i provided my information, the rough draft of my resume was sent to me within a day. I would definitely share this service with my colleagues and will use, in the future, to update my resume. Thank you

Sara and everyone I dealt with at TopResume were absolutely amazing to deal with. Responses to any concerns or corrections I needed always came within 24 hours and I have seen much more interest in my resume since using them!

Robin was great to work with. She not only provided great service and documents paid for, she provided input and feedback based on her experience. I am much more confident in sending out my documents to potential employers compared to before using Top Resume

I have given Topresume a 5-star rating on the work done on my file that contained my resume, cover-letter and LinkedIn profile. All this was done while I have been given a three month option to pay. The products of their work is superb and the views on my LinkedIn profile have grown by over 400% in two weeks!

I recommend that after finishing working on resumes, they put the resumes through the ATS system so that clients can compare and contrast their resumes.

Good job

They did a good job with my resume. I would recommend it to anyone. The second writer assigned was far better at making my resume look great.

Great service!
May 29, 2017

My writer was very helpful in gathering information and making sure my resume meets the eyes of potential employers. At first I thought my price was a bit steep, but I ordered because if it landed me a good job then it is worth it. I am happy that the basic package resume service includes the resume and cover letter. It took alittle while for a writer to get in touch with me, but once she did everything turned out great. My resume needed alot of work and the free resume critique helped me see what should stand out and how much work it actually needed.

Great service!
May 27, 2017

When I started looking for jobs, I applied multiple companies online and got either rejected letters or just no response. I thought maybe my resume was not attractive enough for employers, so I registered the TopResume service online and they helped refine the format, rewrite the content. Now I started getting interview invitations. I am really happy.

Average
May 27, 2017

I picked the package where I can get my cover letter, CV and linked in account edited. I am a project manager myself so I have to admit until I warned them my documents were still being written almost by past the due date. So, this is a red flag from my perspective. When it comes to charging, I am paying 300 USD and this is the service? I am sorry but I expect much better turnaroun and much more communication. I found the overall very average unfortunately. With 300 USD, one expect first of all an ownership of the task, smooth communication will help as well. Thanks!

Very easy experience to have my resume redone. I was apprehensive spending the money and if it would be worth it, plus I thought I had a pretty good resume from prior compliments. However, without getting lots of new feedback in my job search, I wanted to make my resume 'stand out' as so many do not get even looked at (from what I hear). The new formatting and wording from my writer were not even on my radar before I received it. I am very happy with the returned product. I was able to edit the Word doc and provide feedback for the writer to finetune more. It was an easy process and I'm happy overall. The only thing I wish I could have done was call the writer to save a it of time; apparently email is their policy.

The final work was very well written (resume and cover letter) but they gave me little time to review it.
The writer only sent me one draft because she got sick besides I told her that I could wait the time she needed.
Also I discovered that the cover letter draft was used on at least 3 other profiles. I commented that to the writer and she argued that she didn't know nothing about that because another person was in charge of the cover letters. She wrote another one which I think is unique for my profile.
The LinkedIn profile content is almost the same as the resume.
I suggest more communication and time with clients so we could finally get completely satisfied with the job done.

Quick turnaround, good work. I got their executive package and they pretty much redid everything for me, my linkedin, cover letter, resume, and a post interview thank you email. They got it all done in about a week and the guy I spoke to was professional.

My resume needed some work. I chose TopResume due to their positive reviews online and their reasonable pricing. I turned out to be the right choice. My TopResume completely rewrote my resume, really making me stand out. I would recommend them to anyone needing a resume refresh.

Worth It
May 25, 2017

TopResume was really worth it. At first I was skeptical about paying money for a resume service, but I had applied to many jobs and never received a call back. TopResume made the process very easy to use. The woman that helped me with my resume was very nice and did a great job of making my resume more professional. After my resume was finished, I applied to two jobs and received an interview for both. The only negative I would say is that the service is a bit pricey (but well worth it).

It starts with a free review of your resume, which is evaluated not only on grammar, layout and other visuals but on how recruiting bots scan and evaluate your resume. There are several packages to choose from and once you select and click the purchase button the fun begins. A response to begin the process begins within minutes. I answered a few questions, uploaded my latest resume then waited for them to select a resume writer. Within 24 hours my writer contacted me. Six days later I had my first draft. I had some questions, made some suggestions, and 1 day later I had the final product. The whole process was fast, efficient and effective. I love my new resume! I received the first contact with a recruiter and it was for something I would actually like... and it has nothing to do with selling insurance or telemarketing, not that those are bad, just not my choice. The document is editable so it can grow as my career grows.
