Professional Resume
February 17, 2021

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.

BOOM
March 11, 2017

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.

Great Service
March 11, 2017

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 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.

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!

Fantastic!
March 11, 2017

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.

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.

Couldn't Be Happier!
March 10, 2017

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.

Great Decision
March 10, 2017

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!
