I wanted to update my resume in the event that an interesting opportunity arose. Brittany carefully took note of my needs and skillfully updated my resume to make it current and professional. I would recommend Top Resume to anyone who wants to have an up to date resume!

Great service
September 4, 2016

I'm happy I signed up for the company. I got some interviews as well as a lot of companies asking for interviews on my Linkedin. Only thing there was a few times I needed to correct some spelling errors which isn't too big of a deal but there was enough that I had to do 4/5 stars for that reason. I loved the product and i'm happy with the end result.

TopResume is Top Notch!
September 4, 2016

TopResume and its editor, Katherine M., created a resume that cuts through all the embroidery the built up on my resume during thirty years of job seeking. It looks great, easily presents my skills and experience up front for a recruiter. It provides all the decision-making information needed in a few moments viewing.

Katherine was prompt, accurate and professional. She did a stellar job.

Having been at a company for over 13 years (before the layoff) I had certainly lost track of the modern day Applicant Tracking Systems and importance social media plays in finding a position with a QUALITY organization. TopResume took excellent care of me, my writer "Robin" knew exactly how to construct a well organized resume with the best facts to support my career interests. What a huge relief!

If you are not getting the results or feedback you are looking for from employers than I highly suggest this service. My Resume writer included me in the process and took all my suggestions in consideration. She did an excellent job highlighting my skills and experience. I will definitely be recommending this service to any and everyone looking for a better opportunity. My interviews increased tremendously since using my new resume and cover letter. I could not be satisfied with the results.

I was referred to this service by ATD and I was very impressed with the response time and affordability factor. I was impressed with the writing but would recommend offering a layout option as well.

I was impressed with TopResume's service. I opted for the resume & cover letter service, and my writer did a great job crafting a resume catered to my needs. It took a few days to receive the resume, which was not a problem. The first draft of the cover letter had a minor typo that I noticed and fixed. Other than that, I was very happy with the results, and I'm hoping the new resume and cover letter lead to many new leads in the future!

They took my resume, which I had though was pretty good, and improved it. The formatting made a big difference as did the elimination of non-critical info. Nice job

When you think your resume is top notch - think again. Have TopResume do a free analysis of your resume and let them show you what companies are really seeing. In less than a week - my resume was revamped, I got a powerful cover letter generic for all positions and a new linked in profile. Don't waste your time thinking you can create a great resume - for the price - TopResume is professional - attentive and will knock your socks off with the product they deliver!

Excellent resume review
September 2, 2016

TopResume reviewed my resume, cover letter and provided guidance on how to improve my Linkedin profile.
The resume expert was very professional and I like the finished products. She was prompt in sharing the first draft, she added my comments after seeking clarification. This was the first time to get my 24 year experiences captured in 2 pages! She worked on my 6 page resume and provided an excellent 2 page version. I was very satisfied with the service

My resume had a lot of mistakes acoording to my initial review. Then the TopResume group change it all the way!

It was easy to talk with the expert and the result is a very polish, clean and objective resume. I hope that works great but at the moment I'm very satisfied with my all new resume.

Exceeded my expectations!
September 1, 2016

I did not know what to expect from an online resume writing service but knew I needed a fresh approach. Their free resume critique was thorough and provided meaningful feedback - especially valuable was the summary that is produced by the screening from the filtering software companies use. Based on that, I took the next step and bought a resume/cover letter rewrite.

It was as simple as uploading my current documents, providing some answers to basic questions, and giving them a link to jobs similar to what I was targeting. A few days later, the first draft was back and it was great. My new resume sends exactly the message I was trying to convey.

Look - sometimes you need help from an objective outsider. It's hard to distill things down to the essential elements when you know everything about your own job history and want to communicate everything under the sun.

Give them a try - I really think you will find it helpful.

Amazing service
September 1, 2016

I received a free resume critique to what I thought was a polished resume, and quickly discovered that what I was sending out to potential employers was full of unintentional red flags and really didn't highlight my skills and potential. I was teamed up with Charlotte who worked quickly to polish my resume as well as a killer cover letter. Communication was fantastic, ad Charlotte asked a lot of in-depth questions to get the information needed for my resume. I am beyond thrilled with the results!
