The person I worked with was really great — very patient and understanding and understood the task at hand extremely well. I haven’t been on a job search in nearly twenty years, so my cv needed work! They were great and helping me shape a more professional and clear document. Highly recommend!

How TopResume delivers quality CVs.

The assigned consultant was helpful and open to suggestions in crafting my CV which made the final acceptance of the completed work easy since it was done with client's inputs/participation. What I liked were the nuggets of good suggestions given to me - probably gleaned from the company's large exposure to the job industry - in bite-size and easy- to- accept format. Great.

My resume writer Anne was able to collect all of my experience and academic data and provide a new resume that was contemporary and concise. I opted to purchase the after draft phone call to converse over resume changes and it was very constructive in providing insights on how the resume was made. I recommend TopResume to anyone looking for a refresh on their resume.

Wonderful customer service!

Having been on Active Duty over 13 years I had not needed a resume and had only maintained a not very detailed CV. They quickly recommended an academic CV which was more what I needed for my career field. It was very overwhelming trying to put this together on my own so I was so thankful to find TopResume! I also did the LinkedIn profile and in person call which was extremely helpful. Thank you so much!

Fast, responsive and thorough

Fast, responsive and thorough. I had a great experience working with TopResume. After completing a PhD and striking out on the academic job market, I needed help re-branding myself and selling my skills to a new field. TopResume made that easy; I feel like I didn't pay nearly enough for the amount and quality of service I received. I particularly appreciated how thorough my resume professional was in responding to my questions and concerns and soliciting feedback and input from me. Highly recommend.

Resume, Cover letter & linked in profile boost

I got the career evolution (resume + cover letter + linkedin profile) and it was awesome, I was really impressed by the quality of the resume and cover letter I received, my linkedin account was professionally enhanced and my writer did an excellent job customizing the content to me and my desired job description. Dale did a fantastic job with all the scope assigned. Great job guys keep it up.

Excellent value - highly recommend

I got the career evolution (resume + cover letter) and it was fantastic. I was really impressed by the quality of the resume and cover letter I received, and my writer did an excellent job customizing the content to me and my desired job description. Latricia did a great job with both documents, and I plan to upgrade to the LinkedIn rewrite.

Great Service for a Great Value...

I purchased the "Career Evolution" package for $189 which included a resume, cover letter and two revisions. Julie was my professional writer and she did an outstanding job on both my resume and cover letter! The quality of the work was just was I was hoping for with the polished design, keyword optimized choices of wording, and attention to detail. Julie was very patient in working with me around my overloaded work schedule. I appreciated her receptiveness in the feedback process as well. As an added service, I also had her update my LinkedIn profile. The end result of her suggestions were just what I was looking for! I would definitely recommend TopResume because it's a great service for a great value!

Extremely Beneficial with Christie

I purchased the Career Evolution Package and received my first draft promptly. Chris made sure to maintain an interactive process and that they welcome ideas and suggestions. I sent notes about some clarifications and details in my work experience. Chris was amazing to work with and took my over detailed and uninspiring resume and used it to build an effective resume. Sending my personal portfolio made the process easier as well. I have already recommended this company to multiple people.

Well worth the money!

I went with the Career Evolution Package because I was looking for a new career and had never written a cover letter before. The person I worked with was fantastic and I've been getting so much more positive responses from my resume now. It was worth the money and I am so glad I decided to work with them.

GET NOTICED

Don’t sleep on the cover letter

Over 50% of employers prefer candidates send a cover letter with their application, even if it’s not required. A cover letter will give you a leg up on other candidates, showing you’re serious about the position and--in a tie-breaker--can help employers make a final decision about who to interview.

Don’t sleep on the cover letter

TELL YOUR STORY

Craft a narrative

Use the cover letter as an opportunity to elaborate on aspects of your resume. You can address any employment gaps, layoffs, or upcoming relocations. Your cover letter also helps employers get to know you beyond your resume.
