Topresume DO not use this service ! Not professional Linkedin profile knowledge Internet

TopResume promised a 24/48 hs service. I got a note from Top Resume that it may take more time to deliver 1st draft in order to ensure I get the best talent/expert in my field on the job. It took actually 2 weeks to get the first draft which was already not align with my expectations
After 2 week, I got a simple email, asking me to copy & paste my resume in Linkedin.... That it is all... The expert advise from the best talent/expert in my field is to copy & paste my CV? And for a Price tag of USD $75?

I was expecting a serious advise and help to improve my Linkedin profile from Design, to each word of my profile tailor made to enhance and improve my digital brand footprint. 

Additionally, I was definitively interested to get an strategic recommendation on how to improve SEARCH on my profile and even more tips and advice on posts, adding important info, get recommendations, include notes, posts, etc to really drive traffic, get connections and finally get noticed by the right potential companies.

As a summary, I would not think that TopREsume should offer & charge USD $75 to tell an executive to copy & paste the CV. Even if this is your professional advice and point of view, you can not charge for it. By the way, your recommendation is really not aligned with multiple professional Resume writing services nor with even Linkedin advice and tips. Key to Linkedin successful profile is ensure a very strong Search strategy using relevant and differentiated KEY WORDS, describe you professional career in a very unique and differentiated way and not really a mirror of the Paper REsume
I requested several times a refund of the service given the unprofessional and unsatisfactory service, YET response from Topresume was that they are unable to give a refund since the service started and it was delivered

What a joke ! Stay away of this service, at least in regards to Linkedin profile sercice

Thank you for reporting this scam of a company. 

I had a very similar experience recently and had to file a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and the BBB.org to receive a refund. After sending $149.00 for a new resume and cover letter, I never received an order confirmation or any contact from TopResume (despite providing multiple points of contact). 

TopResume must be buying their positive reviews - they all seem canned and highly suspicious to me. The Better Business Bureau has rated them "F" - the lowest score a company can receive. 

I hope reports like yours will help prevent others falling victim to these criminals.

I would love to see this bad business taken down completely. 

 

Thanks again,
