Writing services take the letter as seriously as the resume: there’s typically a round of revisions and 2–3-day turnaround.

- There’s live chats
While most resume writing service websites are easy to navigate, an extra bonus is their homepage chat support online features. It’s a good place to start if you don’t exactly know what you’re looking for or want to talk to a real person (well, a real virtual person who is usually not a bot) about where to quickly locate a list of services.
- There are some DIY options
Some resume services are so popular that the turnaround time lags. The good news is many sites are upfront about that and give an estimated timeline for completion. Additionally, many offer a slew of downloadable help, including written and video guides to resume and cover letter crafting as well as advice on networking and optimizing resume templates.

Third party coupon sites also periodically offer their own resume writing service promo codes. It can definitely pay to do a bit of thrifty searching before investing.
