It was good experience. Easy to use and customer service with live chat was great. The only problem i had was calling customer service and it just repeated the menue no matter what i entered
I was not overly impressed with the LiveCareer product. I signed up in order to quickly have a nicer template that what I was producing for my resume. I had no intention of continuing on with the product service, but forgot to cancel my subscription and was charged the additional fee that I new was part of the package I signed up for. I also didn't like the fact that I couldn't save the template to computer in a manner that would allow me to later make updates or changes to the resume. I should have asked for a full refund, but I did not because I was satisfied with the resume I created and printed out off of the website. I just wasn't satisfied with not being able to save an editable/updatable copy of the resume to my computer. Basically, the software didn't work the way I wanted/expected it too. Overall the product I received was good, I just expected more out of the service when I signed up.

Site is very good with all the drop down sentences and key words.
I had problems editing the resume in WORD when you add a line or more bullets the line graphics that break up the different sections does not move down with the added line so in screws up the layout of the document. I had to go back into the site to do the editing.

Apparently I signed up for a monthly membership but did not realize it - but when I saw the charges on my credit card and called to inquire, the customer service rep was super responsive and professional and friendly to explain everything as well as promptly issue a refund to my credit card for all unused time. So appreciate that.

LiveCareer's resume-builder is great, and the work saved makes it worth the $1.95. I feel they communicate the recurring charge well enough that you have only yourself to blame if you're surprised by it.
Where they slip up, however, is making cancellation easy. How on EARTH do you cancel it? For months, I'd been sending emails to the only customer service email I could find on the site... to no avail, while they're charging my card almost $30 per month.
BUT I was pleasantly surprised today to receive quick, easy, pleasant, and totally satisfactory customer service from representative David Bermudez today on the LiveChat. Without a hitch, I was able to both cancel my account and get a full refund all the way back to when I'd originally sent my first cancellation email. It was so quick that I was astonished - high-quality customer service like that is rare.
I also love how they don't just throw away your resumes & cover letters when you cancel the subscription. How not-spiteful and non-manipulative of them (which can also be rare).

This company lures you in with a free resume builder
Then after you spend an hour building your perfect resume, you find out you can not print, save, or access in any way without first paying them around $1.50.
Then for the poor fools who don't read the fine print after a 14 day period they will start charging you a monthly $20.00 without notifying you.
Horrible, shady, despicable company.

I signed up for the two week free trial period. I used it to my advantage, creating resumes and cover letters and downloading all of them to my computer. It's a great service. They give you "power" phrases and words to go with the appropriate experience on your resume. I also love the layouts and the ways you can modify them.
I was also sent email notifications updating me on job searches that I didn't even know was available through LiveCareer. I only signed up for the site to use the resume builder, not for job searches, but it's an extra tool that someone could find useful. In the end, I found a job, so I guess LiveCareer served its purpose. Cancellation was easy, it just took a phone call, and my experience overall was A-Okay!
Hi Dave:
Congratulations! We are so glad to hear that you were able to find a job. Thank you for this wonderful review and we wish you the best of luck in your new job!

Answer: This is what the site advertised: For 14 day access, $14.95, and for a year $39.80. However, signing up for ANY service aloows the site to store your payment information for further billing, and getting in touch with them, much less obtaining help is nigh impossible. After two weeks they will pull $39.80 MONTHLY from your payment method (please see my review and others on Google and yelp for further verification of this).
Answer: Do not use this site!
Answer: I had to cancel my Debit Card account with Bank of America, because the Bank refused to block LiveCareer from my account. I wonder if they are in cahoots or what? I believe a class action suit may be required so we can get our funds back.
Answer: Call your bank and change your card number Call them and let them know you have contacted your bank and will contact the better business bureau of you don't get a full refund. Then contact the better bBB and file a formal complaint. You will have a refund within a week. That's how I got my money back
Answer: Dont waste your time trying to contact them. I went to my bank and had all future billing refused AND I went to the State Attorney General and reported them.
Answer: Hello, Sarah - Thank you for getting in touch with us, our subscriptions are auto-renewing, we have a continuous billing feature that charges your account after the 14-day period and every month for the regular price afterward. However, if you are only interested in the 14-trial and wish to avoid any recurring charges simply cancel your subscription before beforehand. We hope that this helps clear things up for you, if you have any other questions or concerns, please let us know. Best regards, LiveCareer US
