Brent at TopResume did an excellent job at re-tooling my very wordy resume and provided me with a great cover letter which I can easily tweak for various jobs and an updated LinkedIn profile. I applied to a job via LinkedIn last week and they called me 15 minutes later! Thanks Brent and TopResume!
I was very pleased with the documents that Traci at TopResume did for me. She rewrote and reformatted my resume, wrote my cover letter and wrote my LinkedIn page. She worked so well with me on tweaking the documents. I had all of my final products in just over a week. I highly recommend TopResume. In addition, I thought the pricing was very reasonable.
TopResume has partnered with HighEd Jobs so I thought they might have a clue of what universities are looking for in a Curriculum Vitae. It is written great for business and industry and the person I worked with was responsive to changes but I was not able to communicate my need in a way she could incorporate it.
My old CV which is a mess is getting more replies than the one I paid for! Not worth the time, money and effort if you are looking for a true higher education CV. I imagine it would be great if I were applying for business and industry jobs.
They also offer a 60-day interview guarantee... ROTFL nothing happens in 60 days with Higher Ed.
I constantly received the feedback that the CV I spent time updating was not in the approved 'format'. This evidently meant I couldn't receive spelling and grammar feedback.
So beware, they will update your CV to their 'approved' version but will NOT provide grammar or spelling feedback on what you write in different versions. I'm left with an updated format CV that I'm not confident sending because the content hasn't been vetted - not helpful...
As a dissatisfied customer, I feel compelled to share my recent experience with TopResume. I engaged their services with high hopes of receiving a professional resume tailored to my needs. Unfortunately, what I received was far below even the most basic standards of quality.
Despite my attempts to address the issue, including discussions about assigning a new writer and offering refunds of 15% and 50%, the problem remains unresolved. No new writer was assigned, and the prolonged delay in resolving the matter has been utterly unacceptable.
What's more, the significant gaps between correspondence only reinforced my belief that the individual handling my case failed to understand the importance and urgency of the matter.
After careful consideration, I have requested a 50% refund, as previously offered, and have decided to terminate my account with TopResume. While I appreciate their attempts to rectify the situation, the extended delay and lack of a satisfactory resolution have left me with no other choice.
Overall, my experience with TopResume has been extremely disappointing. I urge others to consider these shortcomings before engaging in their services.
Sincerely,
AJ Albuquerque
I am an executive and had hired many professionals I know how resumes can be vary mainly among different age groups, When I asked top resume to provide an assessment I was really impressed on how simple word changes had a positive impact in my resume and helped me to deliver the right message to recruiters.
I greatly appreciate the work that TopResume expert Evette A. Did to reconstruct my resume. I needed a document that communicated my leadership skills more vividlly. It was there, but the form and content of my former resume buried it. I now have a resume that I can be proud to send to respective employers, and which represents me in the most professional and effective manner. Thank you!
There were a lot of grammatical errors and sentence structures that didn't make any sense in my first draft that I had to point out to the writer. It seemed like the writer rushed through writing it and just threw stuff together that wasn't appropriate for the sentences. There were random numbers and things I didn't do that were listed on the resume which I also had to point out. I was really disappointed since I paid for a professional service and I will have to spend a lot of time editing it. The first draft edit I had a few days to respond, but the second edit I received at the end of the day on 11/7 and only had until 11/8 to respond. I didn't really think that was fair. I honestly wouldn't use your services again and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone else.
A while ago I decided to hire Topresume to rewrite my resume since my previous resume wasn't getting the results I wanted. Story short, recruiters weren't looking at my previous resume, job applications were going into limbo, and my self esteem was taking a hit. After my resume being posted in jobs sites for over a couple of days, over 27 recruiters had looked at my resume, and 4of them have contacted me regarding interviews. I even had a recruiter contacting me for a position that was out of my reach.
Johnathan L knew exactly how to showcase my skills, and accomplishments on my resume.
Incredible fast paced interactive expierence that I will utilize again if required others should contact immediately to start there creation of the best current times resume layout design and information delivery
I have never disputed a credit card charge before this, but they are straight up committing fraud. Don't do business with them. Better to get like 5 rewrites from people on Upwork for these prices, and at least Upworkers deliver.
Hi Stan,
We are sorry for the experience you have had. Please email support@topresume.com with reference to this email so that we can properly assist you. We look forward to hearing from you.
My experience with TopResume started out slow but ended with a great experience. The website says you should get your first draft within 5-7 business days but I did not receive my first draft until almost two weeks after I submitted all my materials. After I received my first draft, the process escalated quickly. My resume writer did an EXCELLENT job on my resume and cover letter. I was very pleased and finalized my resume and cover letter within a week after receiving the first draft. I was so impressed I bought the additional package to include my LinkedIn makeover. I was surprised the LinkedIn makeover was just a copy and paste of my resume but it was still better than what it was previously. Overall, I would definitely recommend TopResume - just give yourself plenty of time to go through the process.
After giving all the information that was requested my resume was re-written in a day. The only issue I had was after receiving the new resume, I was told I only had 1-week to get everything squared away. There was no mention of this timeline on their website and I tried to request that they add it so others wouldn't have the same reaction.
I was looking to see what I might be missing in my resume when I worked with them. The first draft was off the old resume attachment that was several years old not the current resume. It was missing alot of information and the formatting was way less professional than I would expect of a paid service and way less than I demand from marketing professionals.
The second revision -- format still poor at best. Grammer issues, took all the detail out of my resume and were missing locations of employment
The third revision -- still terrible. I paid for a resume rewrite that I have to rework to use. I am way better off with my old resume.
They might be okay for your first resume out of school. But it was a complete waste of money from my point of view.
I wrote to Emily and within hours I had a response. I was assigned to Shelby within less than a day and Shelby seem to be working around the clock to get me up-to-date. I was very impressed with my resume, cover letter, thank you letter and LinkedIn Profile. In fact, a day after I updated my LinkedIn profile I received three calls for prospective job opportunities! Thank you Shelby and the team at TopResume!
Just get chat gpt to make you one, full of spelling mistakes...writers are far from experts and they make you edit it all anyways no linkedin help provided. Don't waste your money.
All top resume did was add a template and asked me to fill in information they could not figure out based off my inputs. They failed to do what I paid them for, complete waste of time and money!
If you want someone with limited command of the English language, this is the service for you! Was hoping for professional resume writing help. Instead received a poorly written, grammatically incorrect mess. DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!
When the talent of TopResume seamlessly creates your new CV, put the words together in brilliant, subtle and intertwining ways that you never could imagine or envision, change your career marbles and stumbles using their magical transformations, you then realize that writing about yourself in a flawless, flowing narrative that brings out the best of your accomplishments and careers, and presents that narrative to the reader is one of the most difficult projects to do. As career alchemists, they turn gold into what we do not see, I cannot thank your team enough from the relief of worry and deadline stress. We the subject are so blinded by the reflections of our ego ( I am a Leo) that we miss the real substance.
When I read my first version, my jaw dropped and was totally blown away. It was so obviously logically created and flowed seamlessly. Well worth the money and they delivered over a weekend when it would take weeks of iterations for lay people to get it right! I found a new team member that brings out the best in me! Thanks team, you know who you are, as yes "I will be back"
Top company. Definitely trustworthy. If for whatever reason your unsatisfied with your first draft yohr writter will work with you non stop till your vision is archieved! I recommend the ceo profesional package since you'll want the best of the best. Only had my resume for about two weeks now and never have i received as many interview requests than i do now, truly an amazing service well worth the price in the long run, cheers and good luck mates!
Answer: It depends, if you want to pay for a mediocre format riddled with errors that has the language equivalent of a high-schooler. You will end up paying $100 for something you could have sat down and done in an hour and a half.
Answer: Hi Carolyn, Thanks for asking! The process will begin with a questionnaire. If after you submit the questionnaire, the writer has follow-up questions, the writer will reach out.
Answer: Be careful with this company. They post 1000s of fake reviews to hide the real ones. Note that they do not post their phone number or address on the website. I had to file with the BBB to get a refund after never being contacted. This is a SCAM company - you are better off writing your own resume, trust me on this
Answer: You will not get your money refunded, no matter how bad the result is. I tried.
Answer: Because this company is a sham. Please do not waste your money. There are plenty of reputable services that you can use.
Answer: I second that, Alex! This service is a sham! I've been assigned 3 different writers and have received a subpar product back each time, written by someone who's first language is clearly not English. The best part, I paid $100+ for a "LinkedIn Rewrite" and this was where the writer copied and pasted their version of my resume into the boxes for LinkedIn. You've got to be kidding me... Don't waste your money!
Answer: I am on month two and still have not received a finalized document. Currently, I've gone through 3 different writers and still do not have a usable document. My original resume, cover letter and LinkedIn are far better products than what I've received from TopResume. If you are thinking of using this service, please PASS. It has been a tremendous waste of my resources: time and money. Best of luck to you.
