We monitor reviews for authenticity
I really enjoy all of the formats they have to offer aswell as they really dive deep into building your resume when it comes to it being from scratch or just updating it. Payment is really cheap and it really helps when you are in a place when you need a resume as of today.
Your site comes up under a search for a free resume builder and then it is not until I have built a resume that I learned it is not in fact free.
Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience you experienced, especially after building your resume and only then discovering that some features are not free. We completely understand how frustrating that can be.
To clarify, our platform offers two types of accounts: Basic Access (free) and Full Access (paid).
The Basic Access account is designed to allow users to explore the builder and create their documents at no cost. With this free access, you can build your resume and download a plain text version of it without any fees. However, the Basic Access plan does not include our premium features.
For options such as downloading your resume using our copyrighted templates, printing, emailing documents, and accessing additional job-search tools (like cover letters and interview tips), we offer a Full Access account for a small fee. This plan provides 14 days of unlimited access to premium features, and if it is not canceled within that period, it renews into a monthly subscription.
Our goal is always to be transparent and to provide a clear experience during the sign-up process. We recognize that the transition to paid features may not have felt clear enough in your case, and your feedback is extremely valuable in helping us continue improving.
If you have any further questions or need help with your account, our support team is here for you.
Best regards,
Customer Service Team.
Very easy to upload my existing resume and do some simple edits. The tool helped to size the resume correctly which is what I really needed.

Can't modify basic things like where I add linkined in profile. Not efficient use of space, if this was free I get it but it's not
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out and sharing your detailed feedback with us. We are sorry to hear that you found the editing capabilities restrictive, particularly when trying to add your LinkedIn profile link and manage the layout.
We apologize if the current design templates do not allow for simple modification of certain fields, such as easily integrating a LinkedIn URL or optimizing the spatial efficiency to your liking. We strive to offer professional templates that meet general industry standards, but we recognize that advanced customization is essential for many users.
Your input regarding the need for more efficient space utilization and easier editing of basic elements is extremely valuable. We are continuously working on updating our builder's interface and template functionality to offer greater control and a smoother editing experience.
We would be happy to guide you through any available workarounds for adding external links or optimizing a specific section of your CV. Please feel free to contact our support team with more details about the template you are using so we can assist you directly.
Best regards,
Customer Service Team, Resume Builder.

I was under the impression I would be able to use the free version. After I completed the resume process, only the 14 day trial came up. Also, I couldn't find an email address to contact your company. I feel this is not fair advertisement.

Starting over again after 20 years. Makes the daunting experience a bit easier. However, in a time when AI is doing things for no cost... This is pricey.
Hello,

We also appreciate your feedback regarding pricing. While there are many free tools available today, our website offers much more than automated text generation. Our platform provides expertly crafted templates, professional writing suggestions tailored to each career field, and real-time guidance designed to help you stand out to employers.

It says on google its completely free then you go through the whole process (like an hour!) only to get to the end and it charges you $2.95 if you want your resume you just spent all that time on-not that happy but have to do it now. I will say i did like the AI recommendations it offered that part made it easier and professional sounding.

I really appreciate how Resume Builder helped me to organize my work history into a condensed format. I think $2.95 is a very reasonable price for the services I received from the platform. But I very much dislike the automatic auto-payment enrollment. That's a deceptive practice that enables the platform to earn money from human error.
Hello,
Thank you for sharing your experience and feedback. We’re glad to hear that Resume Builder helped you organize your work history effectively and that you found the initial price reasonable.
We also sincerely apologize for any frustration caused by the automatic subscription enrollment. We want to clarify that our service operates on a subscription model: after the initial fee, which provides full access to all features, the subscription automatically renews into a paid monthly plan if it is not canceled within 14 days. This is intended to ensure uninterrupted access to your resume and all platform features.
These terms are presented clearly during the registration process, at the point of purchase, within our terms and conditions, and again in the confirmation email sent after your first payment. We understand that this information may sometimes be overlooked, and we truly appreciate your feedback as it helps us continue improving the clarity of our customer experience.
If you would like assistance with managing or canceling your subscription, please don’t hesitate to contact our support team at communications@resumebuilder.com. We’re here to help. We appreciate your understanding and your honest feedback.

I searched for a FREE resume builder. I spent my time building what I thought was a FREE resume (as stated on google), only to find out that now I have to pay for the FREE resume? I only paid for it because I spent the afternoon on it. Shame on you! FALSE ADVERTISING!
Hello,
We sincerely apologize for any confusion or inconvenience you may have experienced with our website. We understand your concerns and would like to provide some clarification. First, our platform offers two types of accounts: Basic Access (free) and Full Access (paid).
The basic access account is designed to allow users to explore our builder and try out its features before committing to a purchase. With this account, you can freely use the builder and create your documents. However, it's important to note that the basic access account only allows you to download a plain text version of your document, and it does not include our premium features.
On the other hand, we offer a full-access account for a small fee, which includes additional features such as printing, emailing, and downloading documents with our copyrighted templates, as well as other services to facilitate your job search (cover letters, interview tips, etc.). With the full-access account, you'll have 14 days to use these advanced features and optimize your document creation process.

Excellent service and a lot to offer. The cost was very low, but I believe it would have been better just to say, up front, that you can get the finalized resume for as low a $2.95
Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for your kind words about our service. We’re happy to hear you found it helpful and affordable.
We sincerely apologize for any confusion regarding the pricing during the sign-up process. Our goal is to provide users with the opportunity to freely explore and build their resumes using our platform, with the option to upgrade to access premium features such as downloading and using professional templates.

If you need any assistance or have further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team. We’ll be happy to help.

Deceptive, says that it is a free resume builder. You'll get all the way through the process, press download and then take you to a payment processor before you can download the resume.

Extremely disappointing bait and Switch tactic. You CLEARLY advertise The best FREE online resume builder, then don't mention anything about having to pay until you have finished working on your resume. That is extremely deceptive advertising

Your program optimized my resume, but I am concerned about privacy. I would also recommend that this is a paid service right up front, instead of at the end.

I used resume builder to create a resume and agreed to pay a one time fee of $2.25. Two weeks later I was charged a $35 subscription fee by them that I did not sign up for. When I complained they refunded me for half of the amount, despite the fact I did not sign up for any subscriptions.
