The writer does not connect with the client. The whole experience seems robotic. The draft provided after a full week of waiting was no where near a reflection of me nor did the draft sell me as a candidate. It was worse then the one I wrote. I am trying to get some action from them and it has been three weeks and nothing other then a bad draft has been provided. Beyond disappointed and I am still waiting for response from them. They processed my payment within minutes of my purchase and I still do not have a resume that I can use, three weeks later. Negative star rating.
I would absolutely recommend Top Resume to anyone searching to upgrade their resume & increase their chances of getting a job interview. Great customer service & results overall.
I think my resume had a major upgrade after being rewritten by TopResume. Besides adding important keywords that I haven't thought of, they changed wording to a more sophisticated vocabulary.
Made commitments and kept them and delivered an excellent product that I have already received favorable responses and interviews based on! Would not hesititate to recommend them for everyone.
I went through the process of having my resume reviewed and rewritten. During the writing process I raised concerns that I felt my re-write was pigeon holing me in a field that I was no longer in, and had no interest in. I have been sending out my resume for a couple of months now with no responses. I literally just trying to take the next step, go from 5 years as Assistant Property Manager to Property Manager. When I contacted TopResume I cannot get the same person to respond to answers are all over the place and some are out right offensive, bashing my experience and credentials (Thanks, Erica). I just lost $189 and am going to have to shell out more to get a more professional service to do the same work.
I can't thank theses guys enough. I have had over a hundred hits in the first 24 hour period. Money well spent.
I was so excited to receive my resume. Far superior to what I could have done. They returned it quickly with very little to correct.
Thank you, for a great job! Top resume rewrote my resume and my LinkedIn profile and both looks great. I just want to thank Christine for making my resume look great!
I was very impressed with the service and the end product. I think that it presented the image I was hoping to project.
I recently utilized the services of Top Resume to evaluate my current resume, online professional profile, professional recommendations and several artifacts of my work product in order to make recommendations for better representing my professional accomplishments. As it has been almost 20 years since I last crafted a document such as a resume, I wanted this refresh to more accurately represent what I've achieved versus that of what I do. I worked with Kathryn and she absolutely nailed it! Her recommendations and guidance in the draft of my updated resume and professional social network profiles has left me extremely satisfied. In evidence of the value added, within a week of completing our project, I have an interview for an executive leadership role scheduled with the CEO of a company admired within my industry. Further, I have experienced more than an 80% increase in online viewership of my professional profile and am getting noticed by higher-quality executive level peers within my professional community than previously. I highly recommend the professional team at TopResume whether you are looking to maximize your professional achievements, drive your personal brand or to increase professional awareness as you seek your next big career opportunity.
TopResume was a Godsend! I got a complete reworking of my resume quickly for a great price. Amanda, my personal writer, is a true pro! She translated all my "career" speak into real language, and revised my resume so that it featured the responsibilities I wish to highlight for my next role. She was patient and happy to do all the revisions I requested. She also took the information and drew up a profile perfect for LinkedIn. And, what felt like a bonus, I got a cover letter too! If you're having issues getting interviews, I certainly recommend TopResume!
I initially wasn't sure if I wanted to pay over $100 to have my resume done but I'm glad I did. Ashley was very quick in responding and did a great job on my resume. Thanks TopResume! Money well spent!
I live in Russia, Moscow. And now i am in a search for a new job. I had my CV, which i composed myself. This CV was in Russian and in English language. I am looking for a job in foreign company, here, not in Russian one, so english version of CV was very important to me. I am in search starting september 2016 and still didn't find a job. So i decided to use TopResume service to create for me new CV. There were to reasons:
1) I wanted the professional CV created by the real experts who really knows and understand the labour market.
2) I wanted my CV to be created by people, to whom the english language is a native one. So my CV could look really NATURAL (how it is really supposed to look).
So i got it from TopResume team. And i really like everything about my CV now.
Hope it will help me to find a good job.
I first got my resume evaluated out of curiosity. TopResume came up with what is lacking in my resume and It totally convinced me.
I am happy I decided to get professional help with my resume. Nancy worked on fixing my resume and she was very quick with her response every time I reached out to her with a new update. She had my draft ready in 2 days. This was followed by a few quick exchange of emails and she was very accommodating to fit in pieces that I had missed providing initially. My resume now shows that I am an achiever and not just a doer. I am very happy with the service.
It took me a while to decide whether I want to do it or not.
In the end I'm quite happy with the result. My resume looks and sounds professional and for the first time I am excited for employers to read it.
I received my first draft only a couple of days after I put in my order. I had enough time to review and make changes to my resume.
All my suggestions and concerns were addressed.
The writer was friendly, patient and easy to deal with.
Most importantly, I felt comfortable expressing my wishes and I would definitely recommend TopResume to others.
My experience with TopResume was really good. I came across their page through Monster.com and I always wanted to have my resume professionally re-written, but I decided against it due to money. Resume writing has drastically changed. Simple resume writing is not what it use to be so I decided to bite the bullet and give TopResume a try. My resume write name was Jodi and she was really nice. She communicated with me all the way through.
It was a great choice. Done as fast as I needed, by a very proffesional writer. We were in continuous contact discussing different alternatives, at the end coming up with a great product. Will recommend for sure
I was very hesitant to use this service at first because 1) I was unemployed and 2) I thought the cost was high. Boy oh boy was I wrong. I am so glad I took the plunge and bought the resume/cover letter package because within 2 weeks of getting the polished version back - I GOT MY DREAM JOB.
Working with the my assigned writer was a dream. If you are hesitant don't be it was well worth the cost.
My resume was dated and not in a format that was conducive to the automatic tracking system used by recruiters. The writers at TopResume not only updated my resume with the crucial words that attract attention, but they reformatted it into a much more professional document. I am very pleased with my resume and the service I received from TopResume!
Working with TopResume has been a great experience. I have had a lot of exchanges with the professional who updated my documents and he explained his approach every step of the way. I like my new resume. Let's see how well it works.
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.
