The feedback from Top Resume of my Resume has been extremely helpful in upgrading my resume and within a short time I have an invite for an interview. Something that I least expected. Thanks Top Resume.

I had a horrible experience with this company. The process of writing the cv and cover letter was unprofessional (in terms of timeline, communication, and matching a writer with a relevant background). The resulting products (cv and cover letter) are unsatisfying and unusable.
When contacting the company about my concerns (and trivial things like asking for a receipt), they weren't very responsive.
To summarise - very disappointed.

Got the executive package (as stated they give you top 10% of their writers.)
Resume was written with grammar and spelling mistakes mistakes, layout not professional, just basic. I was in complete shock when I saw the first draft and realized I just threw away $400 down the toilet. After 3rd review, still mistakes. Questions not answered. Spent many hours with them trying to redo the resume and then spent hours after that redoing the entire resume. Most likely will just continue to touch it up myself or again pay another company to do it. Should have gone with somebody who takes $50, they probably would have wrote it much better. I did read the reviews prior to purchasing their package, but expected that to be their competitors as they seem like a huge company. Useless company, don't get scammed. Their free revision of the resume is 1000x better than when they make the resume for you. My previous resume has better rating on the ATS platform for the same jobs I sent them!

Excellent Service
June 2, 2020

From the very start, Rebekah L. Was pleasant to work with. I feel her experience paired with my career description led to an excellent product to highlight my value and story. The cover letter was great, final resume was excellent and Linkdin development was efficient. Thank you.

DO NOT USE IT!
February 12, 2017

I had the worst experience here! I paid almost $200, and they did not get the job done on time -it took them 2 writers and 10 days even though they said 5 to 7. When I got my resume back, it was very similar to what I already had. I used them because I they had done a Resume Critique, and I trusted they knew what they were doing. When I got it back, they did not apply any of the critiques they suggested! I asked for my money back, since they did not comply with the time frame (the time frame to apply to the job I wanted was up, so I missed the opportunity) and they say all sales are final, even if they screw up. DO NOT USE IT. I think they are growing too fast, do not have enough people writing, and the few they have are probably overwhelmed...

My writer Adrian provided a stunning first draft of my resume and cover letter and then quickly and efficiently reviewed my suggestions and incorporated them into my documents. During the process he answered all of my questions regarding formatting and industry typicals for creating a resume.

I was underselling myself
June 29, 2021

I had the same resume for 15-20 years. So impressed with my new resume and cover letter. I was underselling my experience and not using language that clearly defined my skills and the effects they have on my outcomes. Worth every penny.

I'm a mid/senior professional with >15 work experience, and I bought the mid-level service from this company. The writer reformatted my CV (1star) which makes me wonder how may other people will have the exact same format. And she rewrote bids and pieces by using thesaurus extensively (2nd star). I seriously question the writer's use of common sense as the documents didn't make sense afterwards. And she didn't ask questions but rather wrote up things which was useless. I seriously doubt this company's "interview guarantee". I'm relieved I didn't buy the LinkedIn service.

TERRRRRRRRIBLE
July 13, 2023

I'm going to upload my resume (pink) vs "TopResumes" work YOU DECIDE if you want to work with them on your own. I blacked out or removed completely my identifying info/employer/role but you'll still get the idea. This is not the only place i'm going to post these either so be on the look out for my linkdin/instagram/facebook/google review/yelp and anything else I can spread this word. Also keep in mind they charged $219 for this "work" You'll see the poor spacing errors, capitalization errors, font size changes, etc. Absolutely atrocious.

Great resume refresh
March 18, 2016

I was introduced to TopResume because my sister's husband works there! My resume was written extremely well and I couldn't be happier with the results. My resume writer really captured the tone I wanted to achieve and tried to convey in my questionnaire. In fact, I think it was the resume that helped me get a job so quickly recently.

My experience with Top Resume was top notch. When I received my resume critique it was detailed and really opened my eyes to some areas of my resume that needed improvement. My writer Kamini was prompt, courteous, professional, insightful and talented. He took my resume from boring and passive voiced to polished, professional, engaging, and active voiced. I was very certified with the finished product. The whole process only took 4 days. I would highly recommend Top Resume to anyone looking to revamp their resume.

Good evening. I thought it was important to let you know that I am completely disappointed in the resume you wrote for me.
I am not looking for anything, not a refund, not a redo. Nothing.
I received little response, negative response or no response to the resume you wrote for me.
It was not until I sent out my old resume, with just a very little bit of tweaking, that I received many responses and, ultimately, a great job.
Again, this email is not to get a response. Only to inform you that it was a complete waste of time and money to use your service.

No response... SCAMMED
February 17, 2019

I tried to get them to make good on their commitment to rewrite my resume after the first draft was not helpful. They asked for additional details of how/what I was searching for. That was 14 days ago and I have not heard back from them. At this point I assume I have been scammed.
Also, I took their final product, resubmitted it into their site for review and... SURPRISE, the website said I need editing and THEY could help!
SCAM!

Found about the website from a job listing service out there and thought it is an automated general formatting review service or something like that. Wouldn't expect and actually couldn't believe that I got a very thorough and in-depth review of my resume the next day.

I have no idea about the paid service as other people mentioned. However I believe there free service could as well be a paid service by it-self.

Resume done right
March 31, 2021

This resume service gives a great bang for the buck. You get revisions and input on all content. You get a reasonable review time period which allows you to see how this may fit into current job discriptions. What I liked the most was the use of current resume formats accepted at this time. They match the format to the job discription to accent YOUR skill sets and accomplishments.

Great results!
September 10, 2016

My resume wasn't doing it for me. No matter how many times I tried to amend it, it never generated the results I wanted. I signed on with TopResume, and it was my best decision. The process was very simple and my writer, Nicole, provided an exceptional resume. It really captured me and my work ethic to a tee! I'm sure my new and improved resume will generate the results I'm looking for! I highly recommend TopResume!

The Right Choice

Trying to teach an old dog new tricks is difficult. I needed a 2016 resume and cover letter and chose TopResume. It was painless, seamless and timely. I now have an updated resume and cover letter that accurately tells the world my good traits and my hireability. Thanks TopResume!
