Resume Genius publishes a free path: build in the browser, download TXT, and use 240+ free Word and Google Docs templates. A PDF or Word download from the builder needs the $2.95 trial, which auto renews after 14 days at $23.95 billed every four weeks. We did not test Resume Genius; this page reports what it publishes.
A good fit if
- People willing to paste builder text into a free Word or Google Docs template
- Someone who wants a PDF or Word file and will cancel inside 14 days
Look elsewhere if
- Anyone expecting the $2.95 to be a one-time download fee
- People who will not track the 14-day renewal date
