As if good resumes were not enough, careersbooster gives excellent prices you can hardly find online. I got one of their packages and it got me dozens of interviews lined up. With that extra 15% they give out, the prices are unbelievable!
Absolute trash. Had to do two revisions and still not satisfied. The first draft had multiple misspellings. Writer misspelled "Texas" as "Taxes". Didn't seem like they put much thought into how they worded things. Second revision looks very busy. Ended up using the resume I made myself. Thanks for nothing careersbooster
Got exactly as ordered. I`m writing this feedback just to outline that they delivered everything that was ordered in time and with nice quality I was expecting. My recommendations for this service!
I ordered the full package. It's been 16 days and I have nothing usable. The writer first simply reformatted what I sent. When I complained she said it was just a draft even though it said the order was completed. She then put more effort into it, but it was full of grammatical errors, information that had nothing to do with the job I was applying for, and things that the writer simply made up that had nothing to do with me nor the job. They called me, did a full interview, and it seemed promising. The writer just changed the format again, didn't proofread, and many of the sentences made absolutely no sense let alone had any sort of flow. She then asked me to specify the grammar that was incorrect! Asking me to proofread it for her! Things I pointed out that needed to be changed and even typed out what should be there instead, she didn't do! She asked for extensions multiple times, I granted them, and she never fixed anything. Now, it's 16 days later, the job posting is gone, and I still have nothing. They said they'd refund my money after I threatened calling my bank, but they also said everything would be fixed and they'd assign a new writer, neither of which happened. Save your money, go somewhere else. This company needs to get their act together because they're currently garbage.
We pride ourselves on giving our 100% every day to ensure that our customers’ needs are being met. (We may have let you down, and for that we are very sorry.) Please provide us with an order number as we would like to attend to it. Thank you in advance!
Overall the writer did an acceptable Resume, KSA, and Cover Letter. All 3 had instances of missing letters. However, I was able to correct all, and now I am very pleased.

This service is a scam. I submitted an executive resume on 06/23/19 with specific instruction under the 3-day turnaround order after communicating with a customer service rep who assured me they were experienced at writing executive resumes. Not only was the resume returned to me worse than the one that needed updating from 10 years ago but it also had a typo on a company name. After a rewrite that turned out worse, I requested a refund on 07/06/19 and they sent me multiple requests to allow them to fix the problems. The resume became worse with the revisions and was reduced from 2 pages to a 1.5 pages with nothing that showed it to be a resume for an executive with multiple accomplishments. Now, they only want to give a 50% refund because they say there are discrepancies between my initial request and the resume they sent me. Of course there are because they didn't follow the request.
On top of that, no where on their website and in the order process do they notify you they aren't an American company so you get hit with an international fee for the transaction. According to my bank, it is fraudulent if a seller does not disclose it is an international transaction.
In summary, I'm almost 2 months into this with no updated professionally designed resume.
Tip for consumers:
Do more research and find a site with "legitimate" reviews.

I bought a 3-day turnaround package which included a resume, cover letter, and linkedin profile.
Thank you very much for your review. We are very sorry that you were not satisfied with our service. We put great importance on the quality of our product and the satisfaction of our customers.
We are an online company registered in the US and we have been in the business for more than 15 years. We're offering custom resume writing services since 1997. May we request that you provide us with your order number so we can further investigate? We hope to hear from you soon.
The good news is the resume they created was better than my version, though it did have typos and a grammar error. And if I'm being honest, I misinterpreted their re-write policy. You see, all others I researched offered a re-write if either 30 or 60 days went by with no interview. Makes sense. Give the resume time and if you don't get bites, try again. Their policy is a head-scratcher: If you don't get a bite within 30 days, they'll rewrite it. After that, you get nothing. So you could only go a week, not get an interview and demand a re-write. Yeah, that caught me off-guard.
Now my mistake was getting CB mixed up with another. I would have sworn they were a company offering the re-write after 60 days (which would actually seem to be the least lenient policy). When I went to them after 60 days, I was flat-out told no.
They then, of course, suggested I buy another! I admit I'm partially to blame since I didn't review the policy. It's why I won't give fewer stars. However, they are to blame for a lack of empathy (especially for someone going through unemployment to begin with) and a greedy response.
And, while ultimately the buck stops with me for failing to identify the re-write policy, then the same ultimate responsibility falls with them for creating a resume that didn't work even after two months. It was better, but I suggest other companies could do better still. I'd seek them out.
We would like to apologize for your negative experience. Please provide us with more details about your experience or an order number so we can further review the case and attend to it accordingly. We look forward to hearing from you again.
The resume writer was very knowledgeable when it came to the IT industry. They communicated well with me, and I have used this service twice and will continue to use it in the future.

I spent much money in they packages and after not receiving any interview, so I asked for revisions and they denied it. Their product is not the best in the market! Try someone else!
Thank you for the review! We are very sorry to hear that and kindly ask you for your order number so we can review the case carefully. Thank you!
Ordered a CV writing here, and got several job offers already. This team is good in CV writing. Yet, I didn't like the design of my CV, however, it was not expensive and I got it in time.

If I had it to do again, I would use a local resume writing service and pay a little more for a one on one service with a person. Thier customer service is 24/7... however the writer is not. Working a night shift made it difficult to schedule the interview that worked for my schedule. You can however shoot messages back and forth on their board.
I explained that I was looking for a resume "make over" 3 times before it sunk in and that I was currently not looking for a position... as one of my tasks was to provide a job listing. The service feels more geared to early career/job seekers based on the questions I was asked over the phone and on the message board. It didn't feel like the uploaded resume I sent them was reviewed prior to the questions I was asked. When the interview went off script, it was clear that the interviewer wasn't the writer and that was a little disappointing. I understand it is a business... however, it felt very mechanical in nature from start to finish.
They are cheaper than other sites and local places that I looked at. It just felt disconnected from start to finish and maybe the message board as the primary vehicle for communication isn't for me.
Thank you for the review! We are sorry for the inconveniences caused. Allow us to offer you a discount for your future order. Thank you again and wish you all the luck!
They did a great job on helping me create a professional resume. I am extremely happy with the outcome. Thank you very much for your hard work!

Chose this resume service after my friend`s advice. Appears to be very good - got everything on time, safe and sound. I recommend!
Thank you for your review! Looking forward to seeing you again!
Received two resumes from this service. Both are very good and profesionally written - hope those will bring me the position. Thank you!
Thank you for your review! Good luck on your future position!
First, what company ever lists their CEO by first name last initial? "Gerry H., CEO"
That is a large red flag. Also, their office address in Delaware is a virtual office, used as needed, and not a corporate HQ. Odd for a company claiming to be in business for 17 years or more. Be warned.
Forked over 126 USD for this site/company/clown car to rewrite my resume. The package I purchased, using an online discount code included the following, as listed on their website:
"A resume and/or cover letter crafted by an experienced, professional, talented and committed writer."
First, the "writer", who is a nameless entity, is NOT experienced nor talented with the English language or any related grammar. I believe this organization is based in Panama, which explains the rampant errors and nonsensical sentences and half-phrases, most of which had NOTHING to do with my experience or expertise.
"Delivery on time, every time."
They were late with the first version and asked for an extension via their messaging system. I agreed happily to the time extension and waited for the first draft/version. I gave them five days. It was awful. Cut and pasted sentences from god-knows-where and phrases that had NOTHING to do with my background.
"A free revision if you do not receive an interview invite within 30 days."
This won't be necessary. After the second version, as stunningly an example of poor language skills and no familiarity with editing or revision process, it was clear my "writer" was either cheap slave labor or working off a hangover from the night before. Maybe both.
"100% satisfaction."
BWHAHAHAHAHA! And, then, maybe, yes. I am 100% "satisfied" that CareersBoosters dot com believes they do a great job, yet, they do not. It is 100% a waste of time and money. And, if you need a writer to edit your resume, get in touch. I write part-time and would be happy to make gentle suggestions about spelling, structure, and style (which is often easier to do for others than for oneself, which is why I sought help. Lesson learned.)
Since I had "unlimited revisions" and seeing how they bombed twice, I sent a more detailed, older resume; figuring the details and language would easily transfer and my "writer" would have a lightbulb moment. Third-time charm, right? Nope. After a week of silence, I gave up. No acknowledgment of my revision request. I was done; feedback sent and, of course, not posted publically as they only post positive feedback. They offered to give me one "free" revision to ensure my satisfaction. Uh, no. I asked for a complete refund. No reply. SCAM.
In a nutshell, keep looking. The resume writing professionals you're seeking are not here. Not by a long shot. Maybe they'll use the money to learn English. One can hope.
