Best 5 Resume Writing Services in 2020


Ranked #1: ResumeGo
For 2020, ResumeGo is still our pick for the best overall resume service out there. There are 2 things that ResumeGo that really makes them stand out from all other services:
1. They conduct their own internal studies to discover techniques they can incorporate to write better resumes that ultimately yield more job interviews. These studies are constantly being covered by reputable sources such as Forbes, CNBC, The Wall Street Journal, Wikipedia, and other sites, which goes to show that this company is at the forefront when it comes to keeping up with the latest resume trends and strategies used.
2. There is also a money back guarantee policy they offer, where their clients are entitled to a refund for up to 14 days after receiving your resume – which is huge, and something that only a very few other resume services offer.
They are also comparable with other resume services when it comes to the other factors at play. The resumes they write are top tier, their writers are experienced, and their pricing is what you’d expect.


Ranked #2: Resume Writing Services
The best part about Resume Writing Services is their committment to making sure they write the best resume possible for their clients. This is why they are one of the only resume services out there that offers unlimited phone consultations with clients. When many resume services limit their clients to only conversing through email with their writer, this is definitely a feature of their resume services that shouldn’t be overlooked.
From reviewing resumes they have written for their past customers as well as the resume samples posted on their site, it’s quite clear they offer a crème de la crème service.


Ranked #3: One Percent Resume
Along with the usual resume writing package they offer, One Percent Resume also has a resume review package, where one of their resume writers reviews your resume for mistakes and offers up a critique. This is a unique feature which other resume services don’t offer.
From getting multiple resumes reviewed from One Percent Resume, we found their review package to be extremely helpful and something that is individualized with specific recommendations.
However, as you would expect, they do try to ultimately upsell you on their actual resume service, so there might be times when they are “overly critical” of your resume in order to get you to spend an additional $300 to have them write your resume.


Ranked #4: Great Fast Resumes
Great Fast Resumes is another great option for job seekers looking for a resume writing service. The CEO of their company is Jessica Hernandez, who is someone who’s been quoted as a career and resume expert for top news media outlets.
Other than simply resume services, Great Fast Resumes also offers things such as networking power letters, executive value proposition letters, recruiter distributions, and other professional services.
While Great Fast Resumes offers a very quality service, their prices are higher than average. Their default resume servicse range from between $700-$1400 which is far more expensive than the other services listed going for between $200-$400. Nevertheless, for some people, it may be worth the money to invest in such a high quality service.


Ranked #5: Etsy
Etsy’s not a resume service, but if you need a stylish resume template, Etsy’s got hundreds of awesome resume designs that you can choose from. Most of these designs are very affordable, and range from $1 to $20 usually.
It is important to be aware that many of the resume designs sold on Etsy are not compatible with applicant tracking systems. If you are applying to large corporations that likely use applicant tracking systems or in a formal industry like finance, accounting, technology, etc., it may be unwise to use a custom designed resume template.
However, for those in more creative industries such as entertainment or design, using a creative resume design can potentially resignate with employers and lead to more job offers.
