Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Why can’t I see any changes?

While some of the resume edits may not be immediately visible, rest assured that our focus is on enhancing the content to maximize its impact. Our expert reviewers will provide valuable comments on relevant sections, guiding you on how to improve your resume effectively.

Is a Resume Review the same as resume writing?

When you submit your resume for review, we understand that it's already a reflection of your hard work. Our goal is not to completely rewrite your resume but rather to enhance its grammar, formatting, and overall application readiness. Rest assured, if a complete rewrite is necessary, our review comments will provide clear instructions on how you can improve your resume. We're here to support you on your resume-writing journey and help you create a polished and impressive document that gets results.

Nothing changed in my resume. Why?

At Rezi, our approach is simple: we only make necessary changes to your resume. We won't create problems where there aren't any just to provide a fix. Our users often create outstanding resumes using Rezi's tools, resulting in excellent outputs. So, if your resume receives fewer comments during the review process, it's a testament to your skills and the quality of your work. Be proud of your accomplishment and give yourself the credit you deserve. We're here to support you and ensure your resume shines brightly. Keep up the great work!

What happens if I send my resume more than once?

If you send your resume more than once, we understand that the review notes may appear similar as we provide comments based on identified issues and potential improvements in your resume. If your resumes have similarities, the comments will naturally reflect that. To overcome this, we highly recommend using the latest reviewed resume as a foundation for future resumes instead of your original resume. This approach will help you avoid repetitive feedback and ensure continuous improvement.

What happens if I send a Rezi example resume for review?

Please note that we do not provide reviews for example resumes imported from the Rezi example library. Our review services are designed specifically for resumes that you create and upload to our platform. However, feel free to utilize the example resumes as a valuable resource and reference when crafting your own standout resume.

Why is my Rezi Score less than 90?

At times, we may not be able to further improve your Rezi Score without your input. It's crucial to accurately set your resume level to ensure an accurate Rezi Score. For instance, if an experienced professional with a 2-page resume sets their experience level as a student, it can negatively impact their Rezi Score. Your input plays a vital role in achieving the best possible Rezi Score outcome.

I received a new resume template. Why can’t I switch back to it after changing?

Occasionally, we may switch your resume template to a premium one for a better match with your resume content. Please note that if you change the template to a different one, you may not be able to revert back to the premium template unless you are a Pro or Lifetime user. We encourage you to explore the benefits of our Pro or Lifetime subscription plans to enjoy uninterrupted access to premium templates and make the most out of your resume customization options here.

When will I receive my Resume Review?

After placing your order, you can expect to receive the Resume Review within 12 hours to 5 business days, depending on the plan you have selected. Rest assured, we create a duplicate copy of your resume at the time of order, so any subsequent changes made after placing the order will not be reflected in the Resume Review. We recommend finalizing your resume before submitting it for review to ensure the most accurate and comprehensive feedback.
