It is not often that I take the time to write a review as rarely does the service or person meet my initial expectations. TopResume and Lori H made me want to tell others about their unique ability to get the candidate's story connected and well displayed. The quick turn times were amazing!

They use an app to write you an appalling resume! Once they take your money, tough luck getting in contact with them! Don't waste your money! They basically stole 200 dollars from me. I asked my writer to expand a few 3 liner paragraphs that she wrote and her best contribution was to change the word "Daily" to "on a daily basis!" and that's how she attempted to rewrite all her short paragraphs! I sent them My newly written "professional resume" back to them under a new email and they rated their own work at 25 percent! This is a joke! In their advertisements, they mention that you can get a refund after 60 days if you don't get an interview and it's a lie! I tried to contact them multiple times and no one responded!

Gina T. You rock!
March 6, 2020

Speed, communication, and fierce results. With no exaggeration whatsoever, I've heard back from nearly every job I've applied to. And within a week of applying I had two interviews, while it's highly dependant upon your individual criterion. I would say without a doubt this service will assist in representing you in the best possible way, creating visibility and getting results. The overwhelming feedback has given me the ability to be selective in my job search which has been wonderful. Thank you TopResume, and Gina T.!

Wonderful Results!
August 22, 2016

I cannot tell you how great this service is. I have worked for years and written hundreds of resumes for myself, but what they created was excellent. A week after I started using their resume, I had five employment offers. Amazing results!

Received a 30% off offer in email, went to check prices. Placed 2 individual items in cart, whoops accidentally purchased the individual. Email support they say case denied i gotta get a resume done or else they can cancel the order and keep the money. Wow thanks! Waited until money posted on account to make decision. Must be desperate if refusing refunds within first hour and no work was started

Perfect!
June 15, 2023

TopResume reworked and updated my resume so that I could actually get to the interview phase of potential jobs. I worked with Thomas at TopResume. His suggestions, communication and overall product were fantastic! He came through for me.

Save Your Money
September 10, 2020

I'm following in line with other 1 star reviews, don't waste your money. My resume review was preformed by someone who has zero professional knowledge. Actually, I bet the edits are performed by bots and not people since the formatting and sentence structure was so ridiculous a 6th grader can perform better. The recommended resume was primarily superlatives and little substance making the resume nearly worthless. I did complain and was assigned another individual but only nominal improvement. The LinkedIn recommendation was of little value as well.

I used their service a few years ago and was pleased with the result. So, I bought the service for my son. The results were awful. Can't even begin to tell you how bad it was. The first resume was clearly written by someone who does not speak English as a primary language. We gave them pages of rewrites and requested a new writer. The second version had several grammar errors and false statements. Requested a refund after trying to work with them. They are very well-schooled at double-speak to deny a refund. They had not delivered the cover letter or linked in review. Couldn't even get that money back. The company is a scam now. Do not give them your money. You will not like the results.

FANTASTIC!
March 17, 2021

Melissa S. Did a fantastic job on all my documents (resume, cover letter, LinkedIn profile and thank you letter). It was absolutely worth the risk, considering I had never heard of TopResume before, and definitely worth every single penny!

My husband looked at my new rewritten resume and instantly fell head over heels in love with it. He immediately got in touch with TopResume to have his resume rewritten as well. For me its no regrets, only smiles!

Thank you Jessica
October 25, 2016

Top Resume made it. Yes made it. I got the executive package; Resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile. I was matched with a professional resume writer named Jessica. If I could rate her work 10 million starts I would do with no questions ask. I was really fascinated by the first draft. There were some minor errors in it however she corrected them right away. My LinkedIn profile now looks super perfect. TopResume knows exactly what they're doing. I highly recommend the service. Thank you very much Jessica.

Well, my first draft did not have my current position, only went up to 2019 and it's 2021, and worst of all they're charging me $50 to do what they should've done in the first place. I paid for the top package and got nothing but more fees and a worse draft than one I created and nothing done to my Linkedin profile.

I would not recommend this company. They market their service with many different prices so after you buy a package you will most likely find it offer at a reduced price. Mine for example was over $50 less than I paid 3 days earlier. My writer sent several e-mails where he committed to deliver write-ups or rewrites and missed the delivery time by several days. Unless I e-mailed him about this issue I feel he would have never responded back. I sent 2 e-mails to their support and have not heard a word from them. Their customer service lacks if they have any at all. Use another company.

I can't say enough good things about TopResume and Jessica, who worked with me in getting my resume completed. She was awesome. Working with this company was like taking a breath of fresh air. I never before experienced such talent and dedication. Jessica took my old, outdated resume and brought it into the 21st century. It looks great, and YES my responses have increased since I've put it into use.
If you're looking to re-do your resume, you 've found the best place.

Having been with the same company for over 15 years I came into this job market with the idea that job seekers still compiled and wrote their own resume and cover letters. After not receiving much interest, I decided to participate in the free resume review from TopResume. The free evaluation opened my eyes on what could be truly achieved by hiring a professional writer. I opted for the full package that includes an overhaul of your LinkedIn page. Within one week my resume, cover letter and LinkedIn profile were completed. Within two weeks I was asked to complete a second round of interviews with a company I have been trying to get in. I cannot recommend this service highly enough.

Emily Gardener did a great job!
December 26, 2019

Emily is very observant, and gives great advice. Unfortunately, I am unemployed right now, so $150 to rewrite my resume correctly is a bit tough. Catch 22, huh? LOL! Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

Worth Every Penny!
July 23, 2016

After posting my own resume on dozens of sites with little response, I decided to give TopResume a shot. I was paired with a writer within a few days, received consistent communication about the process, and I approved the draft of both resume and cover letter after only one revision.

I immediately received an influx of job notifications, interest and interviews -- it felt like magic. The missing pieces from my resume (keywords, SEO, etc.) were filled in, and my existing experience suddenly became accessible to the right people.

If you're even slightly considering this service, take the plunge -- it's absolutely, 100% worth it!

Better on Second go - but needed some extra push
September 5, 2022

The first go around was super fast… too fast. It read like a resume and was bare in all aspects.

The second time is much better and it is currently being finalized however, I had to call 3 times before someone actually matched me to a new author. They did take my comments and layout into account but I'm glad that I am not actively looking for a job, or I would be out of work for over a month without evening being able to provide a CV.

I also think that 7 days may be too fast to complete a thorough cv when you are starting from scratch due to the research and conflicting schedules with a writer. Sometimes it may work but other times, not so much.

TopResume attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond

The 30 year old resume!

A complete eye opener in terms of bringing my resume into this century! A professional, efficient process from start to finish. Knowledgeable, friendly personnel - I definitely recommend to take advantage of and add the 30 minute call.

This service is a rip off. They do very little to change your resume and even the final versions have errors in them.
I would have been better off finding templates on google than spending my hard earned money and still not being able to find a job.
