Pricing

At $199.95 for a basic resume, Resume Writers is higher priced than many other services, but insists its quality matches the cost. Specialized resumes and CVs such as for IT professionals and executives are priced higher ($299.95 for an executive resume!) while transitioning military and young graduates get $30 off.

If you want to get a follow-up letter and cover letter with your resume, the full packages offer a substantial discount rather than buying one at a time.
Editing is not included as a separate service, but returning customers wanting to refresh their resume get a 50% discount on your chosen service.
Lastly, if you don’t get hired 60 days after getting your resume, they will rewrite it for you for free. A satisfaction guarantee! Read the full review


Delivery Time


3 business days - 24 hour rush delivery for $75 more.

Revisions


There is no listed limit on revisions – either by time, or by number of revisions. You can keep working with the writer until you are happy. Excellent!

Transparency


No individual writer profiles are listed on the website, but Resume Writers is one of the largest services, frequently (or less frequently) employing hundreds of individual writers. Here we value transparency in our resume writing services, so this is a mark against them. 

Certifications


Resume Writers hires its writers according to guidelines set out by the Professional Association of Resume Writers (PARW), as well as putting them through an intense in-house training program. It also matches the applicant experience with writers from the same sector. Unfortunately, without individual writer information, it’s impossible to check this.

Customer Support


Before being matched with a writer, there is support available over the phone in business hours or via email. Responsiveness is good, with messages typically getting responses in 1 business day or less. 
After being matched with a writer, the responsiveness depends on the writer themselves, there is no way to check the responsiveness of individual writers or see their ratings.

Our Verdict


If you don’t mind paying a bit more for your service, Resume Writers offers great quality. The high price will put it out of other applicants’ budgets. Of course, the Satisfaction Guarantee and unlimited revisions means you can be confident in a great result.

Its large workforce means even niche applicants can be matched with writers with the right experience. This means the personal touch is lost, however. Some applicants like to choose and vet their writer personally, and might prefer a service like Craft Resumes. 
If you’re looking for printed resumes or electronically scannable resumes, the package discounts offer good value for money and throw in the essential cover letter.
