I was reserved at first to trust on online company to write my resume. However, I am glad I gave it a shot and with doing so I have gotten a well written and top notch resume in my hands to display.

Exceeded expectations

I was very impressed with how fast my contact had replied to me and sent me a stunning "new" resume and cover letter. The fee I paid is definitely worth it. Highly recommend.

I had my CV and cover letter revised by TopResume and in general I was satisfied with the result. At first, they left out some important part of my experience probably in order to fit the information in one page, but after some iterations this was solved. I wanted to include the information because in my opinion it was vital for the kind of work I am looking for.
The CV and cover letter were well written and well formatted.
Service took longer than I expected.

Excellent Service
August 18, 2016

I was astounded at the initial review of my resume, I really thought it was good as it was. After reviewing the the feedback about changes that I should make, I made a few simple changes. At this point I was reluctant to pay the money and have someone re-write it for me. After reading the reviews I was convinced that it would be a good idea to have a professional do it.

The initial set up was a simple process, enter in what ideas you would like to see in finished product. You answer more or less, a questionnaire with your ideas of what you would like to see, after a day they assign you a professional for the re-write. Jennifer M. Was assigned to me and immediately went to work. I explained what I would like to see and she made the magic happen. She was very cordial in making my vision come to life.

I was very impressed with the overall process, it was very quick and painless. I would suggest this service to anyone that is looking to update their current resume to have a professional look and flow to their job search documents. I used the service for a resume re-write and cover letter and have no regrets.

Resume Re-Write
August 17, 2016

Timamu worked diligently to review my resume and suggest edits not only to the resume and cover letter, but also to make changes to my LinkedIn Profile. Sometimes "we" are too attached to our resumes, it is great when another set of eyes takes a professional look to revamp it.

I had been looking for a new job for over a year and a half. I decided to give this company a try. I'm glad I did. What Nina did with my resume has gotten me noticed by several companies and has given me a renewed energy to continue seeking a job better suited to my abilities. The money was well spent and they helped answer my questions that gave me a better perspective to handle interiews. Give them a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed!

My first resume writer didn't seem to understand that I was an executive level position looking to move my resume from a very tactical perspective to something that highlighted my leadership across multiple teams, strategy, and leading organizations. We went back and forth multiple times until I had to request a different writer. When I did get the new writer, he understand exactly what I was looking for and helped me to provide him the information required to turn this into a resume that I could submit for director/VP level roles. I was very impressed with the final product, but getting there was painful. TopResume, was very professional and their customer service, once they were aware, was professional and very expeditious. I felt like they really wanted to serve my needs and truly found someone who was a better fit. The end product was great!

I was very pleased with my finished product. There were a couple of delays in delivering within the expected time frame, but their customer service department was very pro-active and extremely helpful. In the end, the minor delay didn't affect the end product or my view of the service. Definitely would recommend the service.

As a truck driver I am obliged to provide 10 years experience and residences to potential employers.

Doing that made my resume 4 pages in length.

I asked for a free critique from TopResume, then hired them to fix my resume as per their critique.

My resume is now 1 page with all the necessary information, and summary, included.

My wife was skeptical about paying to have my resume 'fixed', but now she is as impressed as I am.

I highly recommend TopResume.

I purchased the resume writing. I though I had a pretty solid resume but the results I got back were more professionally worded and better aesthetically formatted.

My only issue was there were a couple bullet points I wanted to edit, but the window for sending in edits closed too quickly.

Overall I was very happy with the service and recommend it.
