I received the "Professional Package"…

I received the "Professional Package" as a graduation gift after completing my MPH. I had been struggling to really define my experience for the jobs I was applying for. Robin was assigned to my case and she made every step of the way so smooth. I thought it was going to be exhausting filling out and/or re-analyzing my experience. Robin was incredibly professional, and really read the supplemental information I gave her in order to see the big picture. She then, in a matter of a day, created a "federal" resume and explained the important pieces, three great cover letters, and optimized my LinkedIn page. Those were all things the package promised however, I feel she went above and beyond by just being gifted with seeing the person, focus, and great writing skills. Her email responses were almost like a little coaching session that I will hold on to while interviewing. Robin Lenhart is who you should request. Thank you TopStack Resume!

Hi Veronika,

Thank you for taking the time to share this. And congratulations on completing your MPH, that is a big accomplishment.

I am really glad the process felt easier than you expected. Trying to sort through your own experience can feel overwhelming, so having someone step in and help connect everything clearly makes a big difference. It sounds like Robin was able to do exactly that and bring it all together in a way that felt true to you.

I love that you mentioned her emails feeling like mini coaching sessions. That kind of guidance can stay with you well beyond the documents themselves.

We appreciate you sharing your experience and are glad we could be part of this next step for you. Wishing you a lot of success as you move forward.

This company is committing fraud

This company is committing fraud. They are selling packages on their website with no mention of using AI to generate the documents. I learned from a writer that the owner of the company has been developing AI similar to ChatGPT that generates the career documents given to client. The employees are encouraged to use it to train the module. Very deceptive and unethical. I was provided a screenshot of the AI module that is clearly branded with TopStack resume.

Hi Nathalie, I'm the owner of TopStack, and I thought it'd be good to put a response here.

Our writers have discretion to use LLMs in the writing process, and we have internal tools that we've experimented with. Nothing that fancy. Like all companies, we're figuring out how LLMs can be helpful (and in what ways they aren't!). Our general approach to language models is that we want to use them inasmuch as they help produce better, more effective documents for our clients. Sometimes they're helpful. Sometimes they're not.

I have a non-technical background, and we have zero software developers or AI-personnel on our team. I created a few tools 1-2 years ago that our team can use. Some use them, some don't. I'm not even sure how to train an AI model or what that would entail. We come from a writing, coaching, and recruiting background. That's the makeup of the company, and we believe that background is essential to serving our clients well. We aren't investing heavily in AI tools, but we are interested in figuring out the ways in which they're useful.

I'm sorry we came across this way. I think perhaps you had the impression that the documents were 100% AI generated, or that we're a tech company masquerading as something else. When I saw your review. I had our Head of Resume Writing review your order and our support rep Pamela reach out. It actually looks like the overall experience you had with us was a positive one. If there's anything we could do better or if you have any pending questions, feel free to reach out.

Only pay after you see the first draft

I immediately got a response and the writer of my resume responded as expected. She send me the first draft within 48 hours if my request. I didn't have to pay until I saw the first draft. My writer was very responsive and made two small revisions. She gave me plenty of time to read my resume so I didn't feel rushed

Hi Joanna,

Being able to review the first draft before committing is something we know matters, so I am glad that stood out to you.

It is also great to hear your writer kept things responsive and gave you the space to review everything without feeling rushed. That makes the process a lot more comfortable.

Wishing you the best as you move forward.

If you’re considering working with…

If you’re considering working with Brigit & Top Stack Resume — do it. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Brigit completely transformed my resume, cover letter, and LinkedIn profile. She was extremely knowledgeable, thoughtful, thorough, and timely throughout the entire process. From our first conversation, it was clear she understood not only resume writing best practices, but also how to position senior-level sales leadership experience strategically and competitively.

She asked the right questions, pulled out accomplishments I hadn’t fully articulated, and translated my experience into a powerful, results-driven narrative. The finished resume and LinkedIn profile were polished, compelling, and aligned perfectly with the types of leadership roles I’m targeting.

Most importantly — it worked.

I’ve already begun generating interviews with the updated materials. That alone speaks volumes.

For context, I previously had my resume done by another provider who charged more and delivered far less — with zero results. The difference in quality, strategy, and impact with Brigit was night and day.

The value Brigit and TopStack provide is exceptional. If you want a resume and profile that truly reflect your capabilities and help you stand out in a competitive market, she is absolutely the person to trust.

Thank you, Brigit — I’m incredibly grateful for your expertise and partnership.

Hi John,

This was great to read. It sounds like Brigit really took the time to understand your experience and position it in a way that truly reflects the level you are operating at. That kind of clarity and strategy can make a huge difference, especially at the leadership level.

Even better to hear you are already seeing results and getting interviews. That is exactly what this is all about.

We appreciate you sharing your experience and the comparison as well. It means a lot to know the impact was noticeable. I will make sure Brigit sees this.

Wishing you continued momentum as you move forward.

Great product and pleasant experience

This was truly a great experience! I needed a resume for a career change and had no idea where to begin. My resume writer, YaShekia listened to what it was I was looking for and took it to the next level. She was pleasant and attentive and provided me with a top notch resume and a fantastic experience. I highly recommend both YaShekia and TopStack.

Great for transitioning military members.

Anthony was very responsive and thoughtful with his answers. I'm close to military retirement, so I haven't needed a resume in over 20 years, and he was incredibly helpful, walking me through his processes and providing tips. I would recommend him to military retirees transitioning into the civilian job market!

That transition out of the military is a big one, especially after so many years, so I am really glad Anthony was able to guide you through it step by step.

Having someone explain the process and help translate your experience into the civilian job market can make a huge difference. It sounds like he was a great partner in that.

Thank you for the recommendation, and wishing you all the best as you take this next step.

Would absolutely recommend

I was initially hesitant to use a CV improvement service because I heard they can be scams but I’m so happy I took the chance. My writer was Daniel H and I genuinely could not have asked for a better person. He improved my CV significantly and was extremely communicative and responsive, and when I asked him to make certain amendments he did it amazingly in a swift timeframe. I would definitely recommend this service to anyone considering it.
