I liked how I worked on the resume in sections
February 22, 2025

I liked how I worked on the resume in sections. I do wish there was a way to better know if a resume is going to be more than 1 page. Overall a great website and one I'd recommend in the future.

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.

These sites all say they are 100% free then charge you after spending hours trying to make the perfect resume. I will concede they are very easy to use but am frustrated when they say free then charge and you have to cancel your subscription to avoid further charges. Would rather be able to choose from one time fee options than be forced into a subscription

To clarify, we offer two types of accounts, the first one being a basic access account that gives you the chance to try out our builder before deciding to purchase our premium features, this account allows you to download a plain text version completely free. We also provide a full access account for a small fee that grants you 14-days to print, email, or download your documents using our copyrighted templates, but these features are NOT listed within the free account.

In addition, we do offer a 100% money-back guarantee for our 14-day trial if you are not satisfied with our services.

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.

Don't advertise yourselves as a "free resume builder", to then require a credit card payment to get access to the resume a client worked long and hard on to build. I don't need you people nickel and diming me if I decide to use your service because I need a job. Either be more upfront about the cost of this stupid website or stop lying in the advertisements.

While we offer free features, such as creating and previewing your resume and a simple text version, downloading the finished document does require a subscription. This information is outlined during the process, but we understand how frustrating this can be.

We value your input and value your experience. If you have any concerns or need assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us. We are here to help!

Easy and super useful
February 4, 2025

Easy and super useful. Be upfront with your pricing. I knew (we all know) you are going to charge us. I asked chatGPT what your cost was before continuting. I think it's a fair price and totally worth the money back. But not telling us upfront feels shady and makes the website feel like a scam at first.
