Writing a resume is not an easy thing, even for those job seekers, who were in active job search one, two or more than five years ago. It’s always a kind of stress and negative emotions you feel – when you sit in front of your laptop and don’t know what should you start with.
Seems like you know that feeling, if you have ever tried to find a job and tried to create a resume. Solving a “resume” question you have three most common options here:
- Using a resume writing service. Most likely it’s not a cheap services, if they provide you a high quality services. If to be honest, we saw just few really good services, and all of them were single-writer services. Other services were not so well.
- Download resume template. The one of the most common resume writing approach. You don’t need to invent a bicycle. You download already formatted resume template in DOC or DOCX format and edit it the way you need. It’s FREE and the most effective way to create an outstanding resume 2017.
- Using a resume builders. Resume builder – it’s a kind of an online software, which helps you to create a resume online. The main problem with resume builders – you never know if you would get something you have already did for free/ without any credit card credentials/refund policies etc.
Today we’re going to deep inside the world of resume builders and will provide you with small review across the most popular resume builders 2017. Are you ready? Let’s go!

Frankly speaking, four resume builders we showed to you were completely different compared to what’s inside the Ladders resume builder. Firsts of all – it’s a kind of a new experience you would find here. Nothing like we have seen before.
It’s strict and easy to navigate. We tried to find some special features over there – but it was a was of time. You would not find them there. It’s a good product for those, who would like to find their resume looks really professional. Without any doubts – Ladders is a product for those, who is looking for professional resume 2017.

#6 RESUME.IO

Sees like the one of the most expensive, when we’re talking about 7day full access to the service. It would cost you $2.95. We can’t say that we found this resume builder special. It’s has all the same options like it’s “brothers” above.
A little bit different UX, but functionality is on the same level. One of our colleagues tried to create a one-page resume and we can say that it looks pretty cool. So, feel free to try it out, hope you would like it.
