Really thank you the experience was really good in building it!
Definitely I'll recommend this site to my friends.
Just one small request though can u guys add more results on 'search by job title for pre-written examples' it's really good but would really appreciate if more examples is added as some companies or institutions would ask more of employees add workloads than the job description.

Reason I chose this business:

I came across it though google search was trying to find a better build up resume. I would say it’s user friendly easy to add with more to control the content and style it.

An intuitive website. I mean the navigation, there are several section where you can either check samples and templates, or just build CV/Cover Letter/Resume on your own.
I don't use it very frequently, I just used it once, to be sincere, but it seems to be a good option if you want to make potentialy employers stunned. Remember that not only information given in Resume is useful for employers, some pay attention even to the design. That is why it's better to choose templates properly.

With a help of this service I have managed to create a tailored resume. Their templates are pretty handy in this regard, as they have allowed me to underline all strong sides as a professional, and, actually, building a resume has never been so easy.
I'm now seeking a workplace, and I'm sure that after the potential employer will review my resume, they will make a right decision.
Keep going guys!

I think I would be left with a much better feeling - and so would other people - if I was warned about a cost before going through all the motions. I don't like to feel manipulated and victimized into spending money. They are thinking, after they have done all this work, they will most likely pay for the time they spent. It is just a shady way to do business and I don't ever appreciate it. Im sure it is very effective at getting people to pay for your service, but at what cost? Karma.

When I add a new section to my resume, the text box is too short and doesn't allow me to type enough content. It seems to be unlimited for work history, but also needs to allow me more space when adding additional sections.

It is false advertising because you are led to believe that the whole process is free only to find out you have to pay before you can download your resume. I also had to do more formatting and deleting because information was in the wrong place even after editing before downloading.

Reason I chose this business:

Because I thought I could create and download my resume for free and I really needed a resume created quickly or else I would have did it all myself.

Don't appreciate clicking on something that states free and then being charged at the end. Wouldn't even mind paying the few dollars but you automatically lock us in for long term if we do not respond in 14 days. Just does not seem like a very honest way to do business. Also tried to reach out to your 24/7 support and go a voice mail.

Reason I chose this business:

I googled free professional resumes and your web site came up

I think that you should have been more upfront about the pricing before I made the resume. I would have been more likely to feel positive about purchasing and signing up for an annual subscription had I had the information upfront and had the time to think about it as I built the resume. Now I feel that this is a bit dishonest.

The services i used were nice besides the inability to actually edit my resume outside of the app. I understand that basically by design but it was annoying. Found templates elsewhere. But its still helpful with possible resume bulletpoints

Reason I chose this business:

Found it through a google search about resume templates. Which led me to a Reddit post that informed my that this may not be the best choice due to things being hidden inside the file itself.

I like your product and your designs but you should offer different subscription options. I made a resume once for my mom and now other family are asking for help. Can you offer a a one time purchase or download? I don't do it frequently enough to need a month subscription and I don't want to find another service because your UI and designs are easy to use and match a modern and professional aesthetic.
