1) Reputation. CareersPlusResumes.com has a low ranking for various factors that go against my ranking system.
CareersPlusResumes.com has a low Better Business Bureau "D" ranking.
In addition to that, CareersPlusResumes.com has the highest number of complaints registered with the BBB of any site I review here. It states on the BBB site that the company has made some process changes to address customer complaints.
The price. It's way low based on industry standard and they are giving away way too many things for free. I'm all for getting a deal, but if at prices that low how can they afford to pay professional writers?
On the plus side, they've been around since 2006, so they have some industry credibility. If they are indeed working to resolve their customer service issues, hopefully, their BBB score will improve. Getting BBB accreditation would help also.
2) Age. CareersPlusResumes.com has been around a while.
3) Products. CareersPlusResumes.com does offer all the standard job seeking services, including a 24 hour rush. The flip-side of their business is a job seeking portal where you can post your newly minted resume and hope that an employer finds it there.

If you'd like to view some of their work, CareersPlusResumes.com has a small library of Sample Resumes for your review. (To be honest, some of the examples scared me a little; i.e., the Fashion Design Resume Sample and the Event Planning Resume Sample...)
Also, one thing that I learned in this process is that in order to have a Federal resume done, you have to have the exact job listing in hand in order for them to proceed.
4) Price. As discussed above, I feel as though their pricing is suspiciously low and to pay a professional writer I would expect to pay more. Also, their guarantee policy isn't well defined. Perhaps, they can clear that up...
5) Industry Affiliations. CareersPlusResumes.com is also affiliated with the National Resume Writers' Association, National Career Development Association, Professional Association of Resume Writers, and Certified Professional Resume Writers.
