I really like how convenient and easy ResumeUp.ai is to use. I work at an employment agency and handle a lot of resumes every day, so I can see the value this tool could bring. What would make it much more powerful is if it could properly cater to different industries. For example, if someone is applying for an electrician role, the resume should highlight the right trade skills and experience instead of just producing a general resume. That kind of tailoring would be a huge improvement and something I’d really love to see.

That being said, I’ve run into quite a few issues. Sometimes the app freezes when I change the resume theme, and certain sections like “References” get left out even though they’re in the upload. Screenshots of resumes aren’t recognised either, which could be solved by adding OCR to read text from images. The job tracker feels a bit limited and could use more flexibility. Uploading existing resumes doesn’t always work well either, and I’ve had to re-enter job history and skills manually. On top of that, the analysis tool sometimes criticises its own AI-generated text or even invents achievements that don’t exist. I’ve also seen problems with the order of work experience where the tool sets it up one way, then tells me it’s wrong, and when I tried fixing it the system duplicated or deleted entries. Exporting as docx sometimes leaves messy markup, and switching between docx and PDF downloads doesn’t always work as expected.

The positives are that the templates look really nice, and the initial feedback does give a good starting point. But overall, it feels like a work in progress. If the developers can fix these bugs, add proper industry-specific tailoring, improve uploads, and polish the analysis tool, then ResumeUp.ai could become a must-have. From my side, I’d be more than happy to pitch it to my company and act as the middleman, because I honestly believe some specific agencies would roll this out at scale and buy hundreds of licenses once it’s ready.
