Avon Resume Review

Review of Avon Resume

Avon Resume is located in India across multiple locations (According to their website). They do Resume Writing Services through their website www.avonresumes.com. Their website looks professional. They have listed their international physical location in detail, but their India office is not mentioned on their website. By browsing we found they are operating from Noida. They just have a mobile number listed on their website but there is no land-line phone or Toll Free number.

Other Service:

Critical Factor to notice:

The domain Avonresumes.com is registered in the year 2011 but as per their information on their website they are telling that they have 18 years of experience. This seems to be wrong/fake information.

They have one more fake information to mislead the user. They have around 4.6 out of 5 star reviews on Google from 241 users but on their website they are mentioning around 3296 reviewers. Are we fools to believe this?. I'm sure they have satisfied handful of customers and they gained good experience in resume writing. But this is not fair.

Secondly, while seeing the international resume plans, they are showing samples related to visual resume. Visual resumes are not universally accepted. Samples on their website is not reliable.

Customer Feedback

They have got 4.6 star rated on Google out of 241 users. Its good to try their services as they have handful of good reviews.

Our Recommendation

It is good to try their resume services but they seems to be very costly compared to Resume Jar or Resume Master or way2writers or headhonchos.com.

Resume Jar Reviews

Review about Resume Jar

Resume Jar is one of the cheapest Resume Writing Company located in Mumbai, India. They do Resume Writing Services through their website www.resumejar.in. Their website is very simple and does not look professional. It seems that the company has not invested much for their digital presence. They own the .com version of the domain which shows that they are securing their brand and they are genuine up to some extent. They don't seems to have a landline or a Toll Free number. So according to me they might not be reliable.

Other Service:

2. LinkedIn Profile Optimization

Critical Factor to notice:

Information about their company seems to be fake. Their domain was registered in 2017 but as per their website they are labeling that they are active in resume writing business for over 7 years.

I think they don't know the standard types of resume. They don't know what resume type suits for whom.

Functional resume is suitable for professionals who have a career break or career changers. Chronological resume is suitable for professionals who are seeking advancements in the same vertical.

They mentioned that they have got 4.7 out of 5 star in Google from 765 reviewers. While crosschecking we found only 107 reviewers. So they have fake information on their website and they are cheating us.

Customer Feedback

They have got 4.6 star rated on Google out of 107 users. I'm surprised how they satisfied over 100 people without knowing the types of resume.

Our Recommendation

It is good to try as they are cheaper and the risk is low. They do not have a blog and they don't know even about the types of resume. Resume is all about our career and there is no way to compromise in quality. Better avoid such cheaper services whose motivation is to take your money in the name of resume writing.

Review of Resume Master

Review of Resume Master Online Services

Resume Master Online Services is one of the top rated Resume Writing Service Provider operating from Coimbatore, India. They do Resume Writing Services through their website www.resumemaster.in. Their website is very user friendly, they have automated their payment system and it is good to try their service. Their preliminary review looks short but more accurate. The comments shows more personalization towards our profile and they recommend what changes are genuinely required.

Other Service:

Critical Factor to notice:

They have in-house writers (As per their website) and as per their policy they never hire freelancers.  I personally feel good to choose a resume writing company that has employees boarded full-time.

Secondly, they just give unlimited iterations. Secondly they offer value for the price you invest.

Customer Feedback

They have got 5 off 5 star rated on Google out of 78 users. 

Our Recommendation

It is good to try based upon the review which they got and their work terms which seems to be more transparent. 

Review of Top Resume

Review of Top Resume

Topresume.com is one of the oldest Resume Writing Company located at the USA. They do Resume Writing Services through their website Topresume.com. Their website is very user friendly and it is good to try their service. They preliminary review was inclined more of ATS perspective and less personalization. The content on their review is good and the information is correct. However, I could feel that some personalization is missing. There are many errors in their report. The report says formating error is there however, even after a careful examination, I couldn't able to figure out any errors. An ordinary person will definitely believe their review is good. But there are lots of personalized comments are missing. They haven't noticed my achievements, they just mentioned I have a "doer resume not the achiever" and other general statements as per the resume writing standard. I haven't tried their resume services but I can assure you their management team has a good knowledge to prepare an excellent resume.

Critical Factor to notice:

There are more than 1500 writers (As per their website) who might be working as a freelancer and there are chances of your contact information get stolen. I personally feel good to choose a resume writing company that has employees boarded full-time.

Secondly, they just give 2 iterations. So better think whether they offer value for the price you invest

Customer Feedback

They have got 4.6 star rated on Google out of 467 users. 

Our Recommendation

It is good to try based upon their knowledge. They have a good blog and they know what a good resume is and how to prepare it in a better way. But anyway its your resume. It seems to be they are utilizing freelancers so better crosscheck the quality.
