“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I had an outdated resume and several documents that would need to be pieces together to complete a new resume.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.

My experience with TopResume was pleasant. The time for finalizing the products was extended for my convenience. My resume writer was very polite and helpful, and provided me with satisfactory end results. I would recommend this service to others.

Very good and friendly personnel. My resume now neat and well presented. My main objective was simple, to make my 7 pages resume to become only 1-2 pages without discounting any of my good qualities, and they delivered it very well.

When I submitted my resume for a review I didn't think there would be any errors. The person who reviewed my resume gave me specific feedback on how I could present my best self. She told me I was showing to much of what I've done and not enough of what I accomplised, and that made perfect sence.

The overall process was very seamless and I did not have any problems. I have submitted the resume to a couple of places to see if I can get any responses. Too early to tell of the results. The. Actual process of getting my new resume was very very pleasant.

I am not happy to write this review, as I was really excited to have my resume professionally done! However, I have waited over a month for a draft, and STILL have not received one. I have contacted the company several times, was even promised a draft by Friday, and am STILL waiting for one. They have always responded to my inquiries, however, with 0 results. Recently, I have asked for a refund, so we shall see how this goes. I am seriously disappointed.

Kash was easy to work with and very communicative. I am pleased with the content and layout of my resume. I could not have created such a professional resume without TopResume.

I needed to add on additional services and they were very receptive and timely.

Reason I chose this business:

It was listed as a top resource by Forbes.

I am very happy with my resume from TopResume. The service was fairly priced and I am happy with the work done by the TopResume writer. I especially appreciated the questionnaire that helped narrow in on what I wanted my resume to reflect and focus on.

TopResume did a fantastic rework of my resume. The writer redid my resume in ways I had not considered and was able to work in experience I thought was irrelevant to my current job search. I was very pleased with the outcome. Also, the turn around time was fairly quick. All my concerns and inquiries were addressed promptly. I highly recommend TopResume.

I've worked with the professional writer Aaron and he reduced my 10 pages resume to 3 pages with the professional resume. I've started using the resume from last week onwards and getting more calls from recruiters from Monsters. I'm waiting for the interviews as of now.

My resume was dated and not in a format that was conducive to the automatic tracking system used by recruiters. The writers at TopResume not only updated my resume with the crucial words that attract attention, but they reformatted it into a much more professional document. I am very pleased with my resume and the service I received from TopResume!

I was emailed about twice per day by this company until I finally caved and paid for a resume rewrite. I was told that they would guarantee my resume would pass through the automatic scanners that many businesses use. And that I would get many more interviews. I was promised all sorts of great changes to my resume. What I got was a mediocre rewrite in which they basically reformatted it in an uninspiring manner and took out a lot of information. The writer was defensive and rather snarky when I sent my comments to her after the first version. She did the rewrite and didn't seem to put much effort into it. Her attitude was "I am the resume expert and I know what I am doing and you don't". I have been using it for several weeks with zero positive results. I would like my money back but all they promise is a rewrite. I don't think that would really change the outcome, which is that this resume is not better than what I was using.
