The resume builder is amazing. Not only does it keep me from having to do all the annoying alignment things I was doing in Canva, but it also saves all my bullets, so I just have to click what I want from previous resumes. I love that I can edit them for all resumes or one specifically. I can't believe this is free! I also use the Chrome extension to easily add companies, people and jobs I'm interested in. It's such a helpful mini-CRM.

Canceled subscription on March 5th, 2025. Ended up still charging me on a NON-RECURRING charge for March 10th, 2025. I ended up just deleting my account to remove my data (hopefully) so this wouldn't happen again. Will be looking to reach out to support if that's even possible. Edit: They have responded, I have sent an email to their team. Waiting to hear back. Edit: As of 03/11/2025 -- TealHq refunded my payment, much appreciated, swift response. Great job on the customer service department. Updated from 1 * -> 4 *

TealHQ is a great tool for staying organized during a job search, especially with its CRM-style setup. I use it daily to track applications, deadlines, and company details, and it’s incredibly intuitive and efficient for that purpose. While they’ve started incorporating AI features, they still feel underdeveloped. For resume customization, I find tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Notebook LM more reliable. The resume builder is user-friendly but has its downsides. Small edits result in extra bullet points, which can get overwhelming when managing multiple versions. Additionally, the resume templates are not very ATS-friendly, even the single-column ones, which often get scrambled during parsing. This has led me to use other options for resume generation. The data export feature could also be improved by allowing users to select specific fields, like job URLs, to integrate with other tools more easily. Despite these drawbacks, the application tracking functionality is excellent and keeps me coming back. If they address the resume-related issues, I’d gladly expand my use of the platform. For now, I’d recommend it primarily for its strong CRM features.

up from 3.5 to 4 - It has some nice features but there are still some very painful bits. I've paid for the service. 1) FIXED - In the wonderful world of ATS. They make you upload a resume and then they make you copy and paste all the same fields into their form - Teal NOW supports this painful stupidity yet. 2) Resume importing. An almost pointless effort. The only way to get your data into the app is manually one bullet point at a time. copy and paste. 3) Workflow is a little odd and not particularly helpful. When I add a job from a web site I should be able to go to the new resume and have it linked to the job. Why do I have to flip between forms and search? 4) The keyword finder can't manage to recognize synonyms or the difference between SaaS and SAAS for example 5) You aren't providing constructive help in tailoring the resume for the job. (big opportunity for improvement here). The cover letter does it but the resume builder doesn't. BUT / AND - AI elements are shockingly good. You need to read and edit the suggestion but the output based on the job description and resume is very well done. This is the killer feature.

Great, the job description match is just useless. Also, it should be end to end connected like create a resume from Job Tracker

excellent and complete tool, but need to work more on language interface and analysis

Product (teal+) is attempting to embrace 'new way you can craft resume', now with AI. 1. Needs much better input from users as UI is sub-par (feels like a spreadsheet versus inspiring creativity). 2. AI embedded is good, not a wow. Claude (free) is significantly better. 3. Teal+ is ONLY product that allows you to view the keyword match of the JD. That is critical so I could determine efficacy of the machine learning based on the context of the JD. It missed a bit but still was better than anything else. Ideally you could custom the result. ie. missed impact of SaaS context in risk management. Why gave 3 star. 4. Unlike Claude, no ability to upload my past job written references + JD + company values (Claude's ver1 resume was excellent). Add in prompts of avoid cringe words (group), use x formulae for measure results, Claude's ver2 result (astounding). Teal+ has measurable result formuale mechanics the BEST for all the platforms I tested. Makes enhancvPRO capability look clunky. 5. no ability to output direct to workable (with suggestions) (recruitment systems are, the new gatekeepers in resume processes and workable is particularly nasty as bits of your resume get dropped) 6. Would like to see checklists and tests against checklist. Their checklists are good, but one tends to know more specifics for the JD context if they have been working for a few years. Let users adapt to their context. 7. 4 stars as even with these product limitations, their support was genuine, real. No fluff or annoying marketing over promises. Thankyou.
