I worked with Jennifer J. From TopResume... she's fantastic. The entire experience was fast and simple. Jennifer did an outstanding job on my resume and I am thrilled to be able to send it to potential employers with confidence.

Great service
September 1, 2016

They helped me with my cover letter and resume. Based on my real experience and previous copies, they improved a lot both in format and content. They provided instant feedback and communication. Recommended!

Excellent resume review
September 1, 2016

TopResume reviewed my resume, cover letter and provided guidance on how to improve my Linkedin profile.
The resume expert was very professional and I like the finished products. She was prompt in sharing the first draft, she added my comments after seeking clarification. This was the first time to get my 24 year experiences captured in 2 pages! She worked on my 6 page resume and provided an excellent 2 page version. I was very satisfied with the service

My resume had a lot of mistakes acoording to my initial review. Then the TopResume group change it all the way!

It was easy to talk with the expert and the result is a very polish, clean and objective resume. I hope that works great but at the moment I'm very satisfied with my all new resume.

Exceeded my expectations!
September 1, 2016

I did not know what to expect from an online resume writing service but knew I needed a fresh approach. Their free resume critique was thorough and provided meaningful feedback - especially valuable was the summary that is produced by the screening from the filtering software companies use. Based on that, I took the next step and bought a resume/cover letter rewrite.

It was as simple as uploading my current documents, providing some answers to basic questions, and giving them a link to jobs similar to what I was targeting. A few days later, the first draft was back and it was great. My new resume sends exactly the message I was trying to convey.

Look - sometimes you need help from an objective outsider. It's hard to distill things down to the essential elements when you know everything about your own job history and want to communicate everything under the sun.

Give them a try - I really think you will find it helpful.

Amazing service
September 1, 2016

I received a free resume critique to what I thought was a polished resume, and quickly discovered that what I was sending out to potential employers was full of unintentional red flags and really didn't highlight my skills and potential. I was teamed up with Charlotte who worked quickly to polish my resume as well as a killer cover letter. Communication was fantastic, ad Charlotte asked a lot of in-depth questions to get the information needed for my resume. I am beyond thrilled with the results!

I used the premium service and got my resume back quickly. I worked with Frederick to make some revisions. The feedback was very helpful, and my resume improved 100% with Frederick's help. I think it's very important to communicate with your writer, otherwise they rely solely on the electronic info and that just isn't enough. I will say that I finally got an interview after using my polished-up resume and cover letter. Coincidence? I think not.

I had a resume that I thought was good, but then they showed me that my resume did not have the keywords it needed to be found. Now my resume looks so professional and has the keyword and expressions that can help me to find a good job because it describes exactly my experience and my accomplishment.

I have a difficult time writing about my experience and accomplishments so it was a relief to have someone there to do it for me! Samantha was my writer and was quick to respond to my needs and delivered a product that was able to be sent out to the world immediately. I highly recommend TopResume!.

I was a bit skeptical with going with a writing service as a result of reading numerous reviews relative to resumes, however, I received excellent results as well as exceptional results. I purchased the second option, along with the LinkedIn re-write. Both of these services were delivered as promised. I just wanted to give one request to TopResume, I think you folks would benefit from using some type of A. I that interacts with the customer before and after the questionnaire, so that the writer knows more about their client.
The only issue I had with my writer was that I had a few questions about style, format, and a specific question about specifying more on operations, and what I would need to put on my resume to focus employers on operations? The response was focused on the format and style and he basically told me that everything was perfect the way it was and he recommended not to change. Otherwise, I thought it was a great service for the price.

Many Thanks,

Lou

Job Well Done!
August 30, 2016

I was looking to improve my resume to show strong leadership skills AND assist me with getting to the next job level (VP); I wanted a document that would help me get an interview. The resume writer, Ruth, was professional, responsive, and extremely helpful. We had several communications during the review period and in each case the information was timely and beneficial. In addition, I asked Ruth many questions regarding Dos & Don'ts on resume etiquette, cover letter advice, AND posting on linkedin. Again, I received nothing but timely, professional, and valuable information. I would highly recommend (and already have done so) to anyone.

I have been out of the job search market for many years and was very skeptical of this service. Before securing the service, I had many follow up questions, which were answered promptly and to my satisfaction.

I have nothing but praises for Kathleen G. (KG), my profession writer. I started off with a three page wordy resume and ended up with a little less than two. My experiences and strengths were highlighted perfectly and I saw me on the page, not the feeling of reading the resume/CV of another.

I tell you, KG did not make me wait between correspondence, and I hope she does catch up on some well-deserved rest. She was patient, professional, creative, and very responsive. In other words she ROCKED. I recommend this team of professionals without reservations, as my experience was more than satisfactory.

The person I was assigned to for my review was pretty helpful. He submitted my first draft within 2 days and was pretty hands on with any concerns I had. At one point it took him 3 days to get back to me, which is a pretty long time considering you have only 7 days after a resume is submitted to finish any edits you might need. However, he was more than willing to assist me past the due date to help me with any changes I needed. I've only experienced one reviewer so I cannot say anything about the rest of the people they worked with but mine was pretty good.

I have not had a new resume in years. So, I opted for the top package that provided a resume within 48 hours. Julie was assigned to me and she really listened to my needs and concerns. As promised, I received my resume within 48 hours. It was exact and professional. The cover letter is a tool I can modify and use to suit many applications. I have already recommended this service to several people that I know!

I worked with Shayla- one of the TopResume writers. She was extremely prompt in her revisions and was able to make my resume "high level" so it would be more applicable across other fields. Over several iterations we finally ironed-out a revision of my resume that I'm extremely pleased with and can't wait to submit my applications! Highly recommend using TopResume, especially if you're having trouble hearing back from companies!
