This company advertises free resumes and of course they charge you $39.95, but not only for the one-time you create a resume on their site, but continually every month until you realize you have paid at least 2 or 3 months for nothing. I would have paid $39.95 for the resume I created, although it could just as easily have been done in WORD - the quality was representative of what a free resume service should be. However, I was billed 3 times before I was able to catch it and figure out how to cancel the service. I travel a lot so don't have time to review my credit card accounts in detail every month, and I imagine a lot of business people are in the same situation. Beware and do not deal with this scam of a service. I don't understand why these type businesses are allowed to operate.

I googled "free" resume templates. These people came up. I went through the process and sure enough, in order to receive an actual resume I could download there was a cost. I decided not to take the time and redo the entire process with someone else only to get the same result so I signed up for the $7.95 monthly plan. My credit card was instantly charged $95.40 for a yearly membership. There was nothing to indicate I was signing up for a year. I immediately contacted the company requesting a refund and there attitude was "tough luck pal, you're stuck".

The positive reviews on this company are clearly written by employees, etc. I would avoid this company at all costs.

Worthless!

Resume Genius was of no help in creating my resume. Cancelled my subscription and they still charged my card $39.95 per month. This is a scam. On top of that my bank charged me a foreign transaction fee. I guess they are based in Cypress.

I signed up for a 2 week trial. Yes you guessed it. No one told me I had to cancel or I would be charged $39.95 per month. Do not use it, It is a money scam. Also my credit card company had to send me a new card because they said my card had been compromised.
Learned my lesson. Will not sign up for any trial subscriptions again.

I was just so amazed at how simple and convenient it was to create a resume using Resume Genius. They promised a quality resume in 10-15 minutes and they went delivered! As a single mother of two who had just been laid off, I don't have much time on my hands and was in such a rush to get this done as soon as possible so I can find a new job. But with the help of Resume Genius, I was able to create a professional resume that I feel confident about within a fraction of the time it would take if I had tried to do it on my own!
