Excellent Service
July 21, 2016

I recently used TopResume to update my resume, cover letter, linkedin profile and couldn't be happier. I enjoyed working with the writer. She was able to transform my average resume to something I could never have done on my own.The whole process was easy and seamless. I'm very happy with the finish product and would definately recommend this company.

Great Service!
July 21, 2016

It was a really great experience. From the beginning the keep you updated with your order status and the turn around time was pretty good. The first draft that they sent was prefect and I started receiving calls the day after I posted the resume they sent me. Definitely worth it!

Top Resume did a great job re-working my existing resume by adding content and formatting that best demonstrated my experience in an eye catching manner. They were flexible with edits and the turnaround time was fast. Overall a great experience.

This service did not take long to complete my resume. Once I posted it, the responses came flooding in.

Very Disappointed.
July 17, 2016

This might be a good service if you are just starting to write your resume or create your LinkedIn profile. I have spent a long time revising my resume and LinkedIn profile. I paid over $200 but did not receive any benefit. MY original resume, letters, and LinkedIn profile were much better than what was provided and a large portion of what was provided was the content O had already written. Very Disappointed.

I'm very pleased with my new resume from TopResume. They were very responsive during the process, quickly addressed any questions I had and delivered a high quality product within the specified timeline. I received 5 interview requests within my first week of submitting applications and hope to accept an offer very soon. I highly recommend TopResume.

Very good job. And they extended the revision time to accommodate a holiday weekend vacation so I had plenty of time to review their work. Would recommend their service.

Im good at my job, but terrible at effectively communicating that on paper. My resume was terrible and I didnt know how to fix it. I couldnt be happier with the resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile that I got out of this service. I feel like I can start my job hunt effectively now. Seriously, everything turned out better than I thought it would. It was totally worth the money.

After submitting my old cv and explaining new context for my career choices, the team was able to distill all and produce a crisp, very synthesized version of career history targeting my strengths for easy review by recruitment professionals. I was so happy I also purchase add-on service to rewrite my cover letter. The pricing is VERY affordable and loved the format of pre-assessment, 3 draft rewrite with phone conversation of writer if needed.

I worked with Barbara P. And she provided me with a very professional and clean marketing tool of myself. We were able to capture everything I was looking for with only one revision, I wish would have had Barbara freshen up my Linkedin profile when they offered me that service at a discounted rate.

TopResume exceeded my expectations. Each writer was extremely professional. It started first with the critiquing of my resume I had for a few years. I didn't understand why I would only get phone calls or job offers for sales positions. I decided to take a chance and allow them to critique my resume. After getting feedback from TopResume, I was pleasantly surprised at the feedback I got. I was getting sales phone calls because of the wording of my resume. TopResume was all to eager to jump right in and assist with rewriting my resume. Not only did TopResume rewrite my resume, but also rewrote my cover letter, and LinkedIn profile. I was quite pleased with the end results of each item. Since posting my new and improved resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile on various job sites, I have received numerous phone calls for interviews from various major corporations. I'm sure I will have that new dream job I've always wanted very shortly. I would highly recommend anyone searching for a company that specializes in resume makeovers to sincerely consider TopResume.

I had an incredible experience working with my my resume writer, Ruth. She was super nice, and made communication very easy. I liked the revisions made to my resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile. The work quality was very professional, and anytime I had emailed with questions or changes, they were answered promptly. I held off using a professional resume writing company for a few months, but came to learn that it is worth the money. I would recommend anyone to use their service.

Amazing service
July 17, 2016

I am extremely happy with my updated Resume and Cover Letter. The writer was quick, thorough and extremely informed. I wish I had more information on why the changes were made so that I can be more informed in the future. However, I am confident that my resume will make it to the top of the pile when applying for positions. My favourite thing about this service was the ability I had to make edits and ask my writer questions. The interaction was well worth the money. I highly recommend TopResume.

I was very impressed with the quality of the work that my resume writer produced. He was very interactive, answered all my questions, and produced a resume that not only positions me to be considered for the jobs that I want but also projects a level of professionalism and polish that I could not achieve myself.

I finished Grad school and was applying for jobs but couldn't seem to get any responses on my applications. I decided to give TopResume a shot to update my resume design and content. I love the new layout and design, I never would've thought to organize the material the way they did. I also had a cover letter written because I never seem to find the right wording for that. Overall, I am happy with both products and have since received 2 interviews since submitting my new documents.

I ordered the resume and cover letter. The drafts arrived promptly after I submitted my information. The resume writer was very responsive to my comments. I am confident to present this resume and cover letter. In less than 2 weeks, I have personal job interviews lined up.
