5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent program!
Paying someone to do your resume is expensive when you consider that you should have a different resume for every job you apply for, curtailed to the job description. This program will make it easy to make changes. I'm really impressed with this program for the price of $15.

1.0 out of 5 stars Beware: formating is very problematic when printing
I bought this product in the hopes it would help me get a resume put together. It has been 17 years since I have written one. It actually did do a great job of this.

Unfortunately, when it came time to actually print the resume out, I ran into MANY problems. Almost every "style" that you can use as a template for your resume has formatting issues when...

5.0 out of 5 stars Best product out there!, January 10, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The software can assist you in finding a job ( searches multiple databases for the keywords you type in). The program is easy to use and you can make your resume in word format and PDF. This is the best product out there...I cannot stress how wonderful it is!

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice and Easy, February 14, 2011

I used the amazon downloader to simply buy and download this program. For $5, you can't beat it. Program works well enough. Its kinda quirky, but gets the job done. It lets you choose many different formats on the fly and lets you paste to clipboard, etc. All in all can't beat it for the price.

This review is from: Resumemaker Professional Version 15 [Old Version] (CD-ROM)
I bought this product in the hopes it would help me get a resume put together. It has been 17 years since I have written one. It actually did do a great job of this.

Unfortunately, when it came time to actually print the resume out, I ran into MANY problems. Almost every "style" that you can use as a template for your resume has formatting issues when printing. It looks fine on the screen (and even during print preview), but when printed on paper, the program drops words off the right margin, skips lines altogether or attempts to print one line right on top of another, or misaligns the icons. Adjusting the page margins on the page setup does not help at all.

I called in for support which is COMPLETELY useless - and boy, do I mean completely. The guy on the phone actually thought I was an idiot and I actually felt he didn't believe me when I told him what was happening. He supposedly printed out a canned resume he had using the style I told him was causing problems and of course it worked for him. He then gave me the rediculous advice to reinstall the program with my antivirus disabled. Sorry, that has nothing to do with it. I also tried sending in a written support request and never heard back.

I am very experienced when it comes to working with computers and printers, so I know when someone has absolutely no idea what they are talking about. I will go ahead and move my resume over to Word and continue working on it from there.

4.0 out of 5 stars resume maker, June 7, 2011

The program is very helpful for writing resumes and it helps you out with prewritten statements and gives you pointers. I recommend this program if you have never written resumes.

4.0 out of 5 stars good software , easy to use, November 18, 2011
By 
Lady Italy (Pleasanton, CA) - See all my reviews
After 20+ yrs at the same job I suddenly found myself "unemployed". I looked for what seemed to be a good value and an easy but efficient tool to help me find a job and it was just what I needed.
I was pleased to see that there were so many differant templates that I could just fill in with my information. It took a little while to figure how to format my resume, but when I did it looked very professional.The cover letters gave me the terminology I needed to find a position in the medical field.
Although the job market was slow, I found my dream job.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad, February 16, 2009
By

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Resumemaker Professional Version 15 [Old Version] (CD-ROM)
It takes some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it, it's not that bad. One of the problems you will encounter is not being able to completely format the document to Word. There are graphics that Word won't recognize in the transition. Another problem, is that the program doesn't make it simple to format parts of the resume. For example, the spacing isn't easy to adjust. Not sure why that is.

In all, the program is a good one. I would recommend.
