TopResume

My resume impressed me when they were finished. I have received more interviews with my new look. I highly recommend TopResume

Writers were easy to work with and the process of getting both the resume and Linked In updated was a breeze!

Overall my experience was good and I had received my resume in due time. Thanks for your professional attitude and help.

Great experience! Lots of useful advice. I changed my resume according to these advice. It seems to be a good improvement

I was very happy with the timeline of the service I received and the result looked great, now waiting to see if it will effect my job hunt ;)

I hadn't had to write a resume in over 16 years and didn't know where to begin! Jeremy was fast and my resume looks awesome! Thank you so much!

This was the first time that I used this type of service so it was a learning experience for me. The good - My resume had an old design to it and TopResume was able to reformat it into current day using action words recruiters and employers are likely to key in on when searching/scanning/reading your resume. The service also took my resume, which was written in passive tense, and turned the language into action tense; "this is what I do, this is what I can do for you". Also, if you're not good at writing a cover letter the writer that was assigned to me wrote a great one that I can use for what ever position I apply for. The language in it reflected a lot of the action words used in my resume. The Ok - It was difficult to convey to the person writing my resume what "type" of position I was looking for and and what I wanted to convey in my resume to illustrate this. I also found myself editing some of the descriptive language in past positions and examples of key achievements in my career. I also used the service to help refine my LinkedIn profile. My writer provided me with a template for me to copy and paste into my profile which was essentially a duplication of my resume. I would recommend against using this service unless your are a novice at using LinkedIn. If you do decide to use the service really think about what it is you want and are looking for. The service requires you to answer questions for the writer to use to get started on your resume. Knowing exactly what it is you are looking for will make it easier to answer the questions and will give your writer and much better chance of developing a first draft for you both to begin working on.

I ordered the resume writing service, and was matched up with a writer. They requerested I not use Microsoft's review features, but instead write my revision requests inline using a different font/color. I followed the process, but the writer did not address comments from the first draft, to the fourth. The revisions had typo's, re-used the same word in a sentence, had duplicate sentences, downplayed major achievements, and mis-represented my experience.

They are supposed to match you with someone who knows your field, that obviously did not happen. The revisions made were less than an hours worth of work each time, yet the writer took several days between each revision, missing the deadline they set. When I realized they would never write a usable resume, I requested a refund, and was told I could be matched up with a new writer. I told them fine, but I needed a new revision within 48 hours. They responded back four days later say they had matched me up to restart the process, this is now a month after placing my order. I told them it is far too late, and I wanted a refund. They said it would take 1-2 business days.
A week later, no response, so threatened to open a dispute with my bank. They said they would give me a 50% discount. I sent them the resume I started using in last week, which included parts of their writeup as proof that almost nothing they had given me was usable. They responded with 60%, and I opened the dispute.

This is one of the worst experiences I've ever had with a service. They have wasted hours of my time, provided at most 5% of what they promised. Their writers are unskilled in English, know nothing of software engineering, and don't seem to run their resume suggestions through ATS, which means your resume will likely never be seen by a human.

If you have decent grasp of English, know basic formatting, and use a site like jobscan, you'll do much better, and save money.

My writer Catherine was great, patient and did a great rewrite on my resume. Also di a great cover letter.

This was a fast and efficient process that helped me continuing my job search quickly and with a better tool.

My first assigned resume writer was a big disappointment, did amateur quality work and quit without telling me. However, the second writer, Mark, was much more professional, provided a solid level of effort, and answered my questions completely. I received my new resume, cover letter and LinkedIn input a few days ago. Unfortunately, the second re-write produced no (zero) interviews. Top Resume agreed to produce a third re-write, per their warranty. The writer did his best, I'm sure, but the third version produced no responses and no interviews after being submitted to specific position openings that I was fully qualified to fill at about 25 companies, so far. Since advising Top Resume of this result, I've heard nothing from them. A resume that produces no interviews is virtually useless. If you are an older professional with a long work history, like me, I suggest you find a higher level resume writing service because Top Resume, apparently, cannot meet the professional level companies expect for more senior people. Further, I had a couple of HR acquaintances review the third resume from Top Resume and they both said, independently, that it was too long and had an outdated format. Better to find a highly rated resume service (check references) and spend more money to get a resume that produces the right kind of interviews. High quality resume input is critical for the writer to have a chance of preparing an effective resume. I have multiple advanced degrees and decades of relevant experience, but the writers weren't skilled sufficiently to turn my credentials into a resume that generated interviews. The last two writers did their best, but it wasn't good enough. If you're a more senior level person, look elsewhere for a resume writing service that knows how to tailor your skill sets properly in a well-crafted resume.

TopResume gave me credible insights to areas I didn't even take notice of prior. I'm elated for the quality of the CV Review.

Resume content was great. Turnaround time could be better.

Could have been faster.

Ahmed was a great writer and I really enjoyed working with him in the document preparation.

Great!

Katie provided a great analysis of my resume. A few things to notice about language and structure. And most of all how to it can work better with ATS

I am glad that I choice Top Resume services. Mr. Andrew Bennett respond me with in 24 hours and helped me to rewrite and upgrade my resume.
Thank You

Getting my resume updated by TopResume definitely improved the hit rate I was seeing on the job boards.

Thank you for the though provoking feedback. I'm not able to work on job applications at the moment but when I do I will review the advice for sure.

For way, too long, I believed that my resume was perfectly written. In my eyes, it accurately conveyed my unique and outstanding qualities. Maybe I believed this because I had written it. They say that the worst lawyer in the world is the client who represents himself. I knew this axiom to be true but allowed arrogance to deceive me. The bottom line was that my resume was not up to par. Perhaps this was the main reason why I was not having success in landing my preferred jobs.

TopResumes detailed critique of my resume stunned me. The comments and advice that the company offered forced me to reconsider revising my resume and to develop a better strategy for presenting myself to prospective employers.

I asked some of my friends who worked in H. R. departments or routinely hired people to give me an honest assessment of my resume and TopResumes critique of it. They and TopResume agreed; my resume needed substantial work if I was going to present a polished image of myself.

After reading the companys website and blogs, I better understood what a resume would do for me and how a poorly written one could ruin my chances of landing a specific job.

In todays job market most H. R. departments and hiring managers are determined not be make the wrong hire. They prefer hiring no one than getting stuck with the wrong person for the job. More importantly, statistics reveal that most job seeking candidates are eliminated within the first few minutes of their first interview. I knew that if I could get into the hiring managers office, I and not my resume would have to talk my way to the next round of interviews.

I asked TopResume to rework my resume and to prepare an appropriate cover letter. The documents were professionally prepared and delivered on time. The companys document preparer who worked with me was professional, diligent and courteous. I was confident that she knew what she was doing. She requested my input on regular basis. I am 100% satisfied with the services that I received from the company.

My reworked resume and cover letter have allowed me to open employers' doors that had been previously shut to me.

I appreciate how my writer incorporated the additional information about me, outside of my employment history. I do believe the fee was a bit steep.

I was extremely happy with the revamp of my resume. So happy I decided to give it a go. I would definitely recommend this service.

They were extremely helpful and were very patient with me. I'm sure to get hits with the new updates and now having a linkedin account.
