Who it suits
Zety publishes a guided builder with 18+ templates, a cover letter builder and, on its Pro Package, a Resume Check tool that looks for 30+ issues. Its free Basic Package allows TXT downloads. The $1.70 trial auto-renews at $23.95 billed every 4 weeks. We did not test Zety; this page reports what it publishes.
A good fit if
- Someone who wants a guided builder and will cancel inside 14 days
- People who only need the text of a resume, which downloads free as TXT
Look elsewhere if
- Anyone expecting the $1.70 to be a one-time fee
- People who need a PDF or Word file without starting a subscription
