I've worked with the professional writer Aaron and he reduced my 10 pages resume to 3 pages with the professional resume. I've started using the resume from last week onwards and getting more calls from recruiters from Monsters. I'm waiting for the interviews as of now.
If you want your resume to truly standout, TopResume will make it happen. I thought my resume was good, but I learned after using TopResume that mine was barely adequate. The format and the attention grabbing words make all the difference. I highly recommend TopResume.
Top Resume provides custom tailored resumes for a reasonable fee.
You fill out a questionnaire and provide a copy of your current resume. You get matched with a writer pretty quickly and a few days later, based on your criteria, they craft a powerful resume. It may not be exactly what you want, so you can notify your writer what changes you may want and information you want included (You get two revisions over a seven day period from receiving your initial resume). Additionally, they can craft a cover letter and help with a linkedin profile - depending on the level of service you order. My writer was reasonably prompt to respond to my emails (Honestly, I would have prefered a faster response, as I feel two days were wasted waiting for a response over a minor unnecessary detail on the writer's part. Great customer service btw) - they have 48 hrs to get back to you.
I ordered the executive package and am happy with the results.
I was very pleased with the personalized service received and the professional resume and covering letter that was prepared. The turnaround time was very fast and no revisions were required.
I did not know what to expect going in but a great investment. I worked with Samantha G and her response time was great and exteremly professional. The best part was the end product! Loved it. The information was concise and powerfully presented. Thanks!
They made my resume and cover letter look very professional. It impressed some employers, and those employers contacted me for an interview soon after submission.
I had a really positive experience using Top Resume. They were able to condense my points and use more powerful language than what I previously had. The writer was attentive with my concerns and extremely effective. Hoping to land some job interviews soon.
Great service from TopResume! My writer was prompt and very helpful! I am very very happy with my new resume!
This service was great to update my old out of date resume and making it stand out to potential employers. The writer assigned to my job was very friendly, knowledgeable, and punctual! I would highly recommend this company to update and/or create your next resume!
I had spent weeks tweaking my resume and thought it was perfect. Once I sent it to Top Resume it took it to a whole new level. My writer (John) was great and very easy to work with. If you are in the job market, give Top Resume a chance to make you look better!
They hit it just right! The resume they started with was simply too long, dated in format and infused with technical jargon. They took my 20 year career and condensed it to the perfect blend of highlight and key skill.
It reads well, looks great and represents me just as I need it to.
Their LinkedIn advice was spot-on and very helpful to tying it all together online. I was really pleased.
She asked a lot of questions about my previous positions and was able to highlight the differences between them. Very satisfied with the final product
TopResume provided fast turnaround and a personal touch to their services. The final product was clean, modern and professional.
Excellent service and impressed with the professional writers! Even though my order for editing and revising the resume was on a very short notice, I received a remarkable final product.
I sent my resume to the website www.topresume.com, but they told me that it was really bad. They offered me that they would write resume for me, and I needed to pay $249 for Executive priority package, because it was fast. I paid money and got the resume, which looked like mine, which I sent them before. I wont recommend you to use this website.
After having my resume reviewed and analyzed, what I thought to be somewhat acceptable by my standards appeared to be a disaster. I hesitantly decided to go ahead and pay to have my resume professionally drafted. All I can say is WOW! The final product was more than I could have asked for. Extremely professionally written with key words prominent. The turn time was extremely quick and the revisions were addressed rapidly!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I always had my confidence on the resume I wrote. One day when I visited one random job site and there was a link on the side asking me if I wanted a free resume review. So I was thinking why not. How bad it could be. Less than one day the feedback came back. It listed a lot of points as to what was missing, what is the thinking from a recruiter point of view when they see my resume, and what could be improved. So I signed up afterword. As it turned out that is the best investment I have ever made. The resume writer turned around so quick and the result is stunning. I am so happy. I highly recommend the service.
I had my professionally designed resume critiqued by Top Resume and discovered it needed some tweaking. So, I allowed TopResume to clean it up. I was assigned to a very professional, knowledgeable, creative resume coach/designer and she did a remarkable job making my resume stand out more and made me more marketable. In addition, she designed an outstanding cover letter that I can manipulate to fit most job descriptions. Thank you for the outstanding work!
I didn't want to have to pay to have my resume done. But I haven't written one in almost 2 decades and I knew what I had, was not good enough. TopResume was very helpful in their advice even before I placed my order. Kathleen did an excellent job in communicating with me and writing a very professional resume that reflects my skills and experience. I'm very happy I decided to order their service. It's a big weight off of my shoulders and now I can focus on my job search. I would highly recommend them!
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!
