Review of... Resume2Hire.com

Review by
David Alan Carter

A relative newcomer in resume services, Resume2Hire.com will write any and all resumes for one low price. So... is the end result a bargain? Or garbage?

First, let's be clear: you're not going to get a document that can compete against a $500 resume from the likes of Great Resumes Fast. But sometimes, you don't need to compete against the big boys. In many occupations, your toughest competition will come from resumes written by job seekers themselves. In those cases, this company --and $99 bucks -- will likely give you an advantage.

The Process:

Upload your existing resume if you have one. If you don't, you'll be asked to fill out an online questionnare (they call it a "work experience form"). On it, you'll provide details regarding your past employment history, education, skills, training, achievements and any honors or awards you've received.

Once the form is completed, you'll be forwarded to a payment page where you make a secure payment via paypal, credit card, debit card or e-check. After the payment is processed, a professional writer will be assigned to your account.

Your writer will review your information and write your resume. You'll receive a first draft via email within 72 business hours after placing your order.

Review the draft, and let your writer know if there are any necessary corrections or revisions.

The resume is a Word document (so you can handle future updating yourself).

Here's What We Liked:

Credentialed. Company claims their team of writers hold credentials that include CPRWs (Certified Professional Resume Writers), NCRWs (Nationally Certified Resume Writers), and PHR (Professional in Human Resources) certified.
Experienced. Company claims their principals have over 30 combined years in resume writing, staffing and recruitment. They state that their writing team has written over 10,000 resumes since 2008.
Samples on the company website look better than I would have expected at this price point. The samples are fuzzy and hard to read, I suspect to help thwart copy-cats, but you can tell that the design and layout is OK and writing seems crisp.

Rush service is available (for an additional fee).

   
Cautionary Note: They had been given an "B" rating with the Better Business Bureau (currently "no rating" while the BBB evaluates further). The number of complaints filed with the BBB "for a business of this size" was comparatively heavy (27 complaints in the past 3 years, 15 closed in the past 12 months). And the length of time the company has taken to respond to those complaints contributed to the lowered rating. Read the BBB Report on this business.

Resume2Hire - Review Summary:

Those who have read our reviews know we're advocates of resume writers conducting consultative interviews with their clients prior to crafting the resume. An interview is the best way to gather the nuanced information that will -- in the hands of a pro writer -- deliver a resume that propels the candidate above the competition. But time is money, and resume writers who conduct those interviews must charge $250 to $500 or more to make a living and keep providing that level of service. This would include the resume writers at ResumeWriters.com and GreatResumesFast.com (each with a BBB score of A+).

That said, not everyone can afford such services, nor does everyone need such services. For job seekers on a limited budget, Resume2Hire appears to be decent alternative. Not perfect, but decent. As we said before, don't think you're going to spend 99 bucks here and get the equivalent of a $300 resume from a writer who just spent an hour and a half on the phone with you. You won't. But dollar for dollar, this isn't a bad deal...
