I'm about to return to the states from living abroad and want a new career once there. Unfortunately, with the costs associated with the move, I was unable to spend hundreds upon hundreds for private resume services. I decided to go with TopResume after a friend in the business referred me, and I am very pleased. They are very fast and easy to work with, and I feel I got more than my money's worth.
Initially i had them do a free review. Prepare yourself for a very honest critique of your resume. Almost two pages of suggestions to think about and fix. I signed up for the resume and cover letter which was around 210. I answered a few questions, submitted my resume, and then it took a day to get matched to a writer. I was blown away with the work she did on the first draft. After i provided info she needed and what i wanted to see. It took her about 4 days to get back to me on my completed project. I then opened what used to be a terrible resume to something that was amazing. I wish i could send a tip because i was not only proud of the work but have passed the name on to my friends and family. Update: after a day submitting to jobs, i have already been contacted by one employer which i have never heard from for the years i have been trying to get in. Well worth the money invested.
They work diligently on your resume and provide excellent service, very happy with my order! Would highly recommend
They confirmed all my expectations. This help was timely and qualified.
Also was good "Professionally Written Cover Letter".
Less stressed & more focused. I first used TopResume to receive a free Resume Critique. Their feedback really opened my eyes to how employers seek talent these days. It also showed me that my resume was seriously lacking. I knew I needed to rewrite my resume but, to me, that task was so intimidating, I didn't & couldn't get started. I was paralyzed by the stress of it. I then employed TopResume to rewrite my resume for me. The process was so easy! From start to finish I was thoroughly pleased with my personal resume writer, Armand. He went above & beyond & provided an exceptional finished product.
After several years of mediocre jobs, I decided to hire TopResume to change what I look like on paper. In my mid-30s I feel like it's time to invest in something that will get me that dream career in an industry I actually enjoy. I chose the Executive package and added on the Thank You Note and Resume Posting Service. I figured with a 60-day money-back guarantee if no interviews, what did I have to lose? Within a week of hiring TopResume, one of their top writers - Michelle - had all of my documents to me and ready to go. Throughout the week long revision period, Michelle was extremely fast with replying to my emails and she always made sure I was on board with changes she made. She also incorporated my long winded explanations by changing them into concise summaries. Thank you so much Michelle and TopResume for helping me!
Once I posted my new resume I was getting emails from reputable companies and more hits than I had from my old resume. Well worth the money and time spent.
I was stunned and said "WOW" when I saw the initial draft of my resume. The resume writer was able to cut my resume down from 10 pages to 2 pages. The layout and wording is great. My skills and all relevant information needed are highlighted to match with the job that I am applying for. I cannot describe how pleased I am upon receiving the final draft of my resume and cover letter. Many thanks to TopResume for working on my resume. I will recommend TopResume to others.
The resume writer was fast, professional, and produced excellent work. She captured everything and more that I was looking for when having my resume professionally written. I would recommend them to anyone that is seeking to have their resume professionally written.
I'm a designer. For those of you out there that share the same trade, you know we are not the best at writing. I reached out to TopResume to help out with mine via Glassdoor. I can't thank my writer, Shayla, enough for her work. She helped me revise a few things after the first draft and kept an open communication with me. I have seen the immediate impact of her revision to my resume with an increase of callbacks. Needless to say, having someone else write about your accomplishments definitely helps in making them more marketable and stop our own harsh judgement of what we think they are. Thanks again to TopResume!
I absolutely enjoyed my experience using TopResume. I thought my resume was pretty good until they reviewed it and informed me certain areas that needed work. They were quick and efficient with answering my questions, comments, additions, and concerns. I'd highly recommend to anyone and everyone!
I sincerely appreciated the worked done on my CV indeed outline what my experience and skill sets are in the most professional! It worths every penny of it wish I will have the service sooner! I happy with the results thank you so uch Topresume team.
Quick response and not at all stressful. With help from TopResume, I honestly believe I just may have a chance at finally finding a good job. Would recommend to others.
I was very impressed with all the staff that I was in contact with. My writer was professional, helpful and timely. I already have had a promising interview today after months of posting my written resume. It works!
Overall the experience is great. Very responsive on email and helpful.
If they could understand a bit the background industry of each experience, will be even better. But that will be hard and time consuming
Brooke made this a much more personable experience than I expected from an electronic service. Highly recommended.
The process was easy and the writer captured everything I was looking for. Can't wait to put my resume out there.
I had a wonderful experience utilizing TopResume. I recently finished graduate school and had tried putting together a resume that summarized my accomplishments and experience, however I struggled with the length, wording, and appearance. My writer was very helpful and tailored my resume specifically to the field I working in, which is mental health. She was extremely prompt in replies and effectively edited any areas I had concern over. I have gotten many more responses from employers since I have utilized my new cover letter and resume developed by TopResume.
I had three separate resume writers work on my resume and all three were junk. Take a resume writing course at your local community college and it will be ten fold better. I am a PMP with a security clearance and they were not able to effective get either in my resume. Constantly miss stated my experience and devalued my military service. DONOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. The resume wizard on windows is better.
I purchased the Executive resume pkg. And this was the best investment I've ever made for my career.
Dale T. Did an amazing job! There's a reason why their called professional writers. He is the BEST! The communication between Dale and I was fluid and he was able to address all my questions.
In fact, I was so impressed that I got my brother to sign up for the same package. :)
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.
