“Seamless process”

Ellissa A.
7/27/24

I had an outdated resume and several documents that would need to be pieces together to complete a new resume. I was worried that it would be difficult for my writer to create a cohesive whole, but Allen did a phenomenal job. Drafts were sent quickly, he was so communicative and helpful, and we completed the process by draft 2 and ahead of schedule. I highly recommend this service.

“Absolutely NOT worth the money”

Heather C.
11/24/24

Received the services I purchased in the correct timeline. However, the format was not compatible for Apple devices despite my requesting that a universal format be utilized. Most significantly, I've had very negative feedback from recruiters and hiring managers with the content of my new resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn page. Even people I've worked with say they don't adequately communicate my skills and experience. The company offers no way to request a partial or full refund or contact them in any way. I posted this review on other review sites as well. The company contacted me to correct the issues by assigning a different person to rewrite the documents. Having no trust in the value of wasting additional time and effort working with someone else utilizing the same methods as the first representative, I requested a refund. The company refused to refund my money. So, I've wasted time, money, and still have useless documents. Please don't utilize this organization.

Their review and feedback about my resume gave me insight on how companies see my experience. I didn't know how to fix my resume until TopResume gave me honest feedback.

For many years I could never achieve a good CV, no matter how much I read about how to build a great CV, I just found it very challenging to summarise my professional experience in a clear way that illustrated my experience and skills. Thank to TopCV now I have a top CV that I am sure will get me to my next challenge!

The person I worked with was friendly and very competent. I am quite happy with what they did to my resume

Reason I chose this business:

I got a free analysis of my resume from TopResume after applying for a job with the City of Boise

In reading over the resume and cover letter, I feel like I'm meeting my professional self for the first time! I can see before me a good picture of who I am in terms of experience and education and I can't wait to see what doors my new resume and cover letter will open for me. From the day I was assigned a writer and she contacted me, though, I felt a bit pressured by the knowledge that the 7 day clock was counting down. I always felt a bit pressured (never by my writer, but by the 7 day policy) to respond to my writer asap after she sent changes because I was just so paranoid about 'wasting' any of that time. It turned out everything got done in about 3 or 4 days after being assigned a writer (which took about 7 days), and my writer was very responsive, but something about that 7 days just made me panic a bit. Overall, I am quite pleased with the final result; it's polished, crisp and no-nonsense, and it presents me in an honest, professional light! I would recommend this company to anyone without reservation!

PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU PURCHASE
( I DONT RECOMMEND THIS SERVICE)

I'm currently a fresh graduate who is preparing for a career start, I took this unprofessional company to help me but I was so disappointed. I filled up the application on May 6 and today is May 20 and till now no one has contacted me or send me anything. Till now I believe its a fraud because I still didn't get any service. 14 days have passed and they are still not responding. I have been using this service because I need to apply for a specific job which will expire on the 22nd of May.

Secondly, they BLOCKED ME from sending emails, and most importantly they don't get back to me. AND THEY STILL DIDNT SEND ANYTHING!

I STRONGLY DONT RECOMMENDED TOP RESUME AS A RESUME WRITING SERVICE, AND I NEED TO REFUND MY MONEY.

For busy professionals, it's often a lot of work and hard to get around to update a resume. This was a good way to have mine updated in case I need to use it.

Do not waste your time or money. They do not respond to feedback within the first week deadline and do not call back after 60 days.

They also have no clue about writing resumes.

I had received a free review regarding my resume and thought that it would be worthwhile to get my resume, cover letter and LinkedIn account up to speed. I paid for the service, received the confirmation email and sent my stuff in. There was a delay in getting back with me but they offered a full refund or a 25% discount if I chose to continue. Obviously I chose to continue(but am not sure about the refund). Took a few days to find a writer, but once the process got started it moved along quickly, she accepted my suggestions to the revision and I'm happy with the final resume. The cover letter seemed to just be a form letter that I fill in myself and the LinkedIn update was not what I had expected, I don't think they ever looked at my current Linked In page to make any suggestions just showed how to cut and paste parts of resume in to LinkedIn. I have yet to post the resume on the Job Sites to see if we get through the filters and what, if any, job offers come through. Overall, I think they did what they said they would and I am satisfied with the service and would recommend them to others looking to spruce up their resume.
