If I could give zero stars here, I would. As noted in an earlier review that was posted just last week, I had a horrible experience w/the Ladders' resume service. Someone at the company responded -- said they were sorry that their resume service didn't meet expectations and they take customer feedback "seriously" -- and they instructed me to contact them via email with the email associated w/my account so they could "assist (me) directly." I did exactly this -- four days ago -- w/no response. That's how 'seriously' they take customer feedback (which is to say....not seriously at all). Avoid this company at all costs, folks.

The platform used to be my go-to for jobs. Unfortunately is has become complete garbage. Ads in your face, trying to force you to upgrade just to look at jobs: this is a masterclass in how to effectively burn your brand to the ground.

Paid them $90 for a human to fix my resume and they produced the saddest-looking resume I've ever seen in my life. I'm pretty sure they used AI to do it. Worse still, right after provided my contact information, I received calls from several banks. Coincidence? I think not. Avoid this company at all costs.

Ladders is a scam I accidentally used the wrong email id to sing up for the premium service and to my surprise Ladder has charged me for the account without verifying my email and three months later they charged me again for renewal. Gladly, I was using PayPal so I receive the notification from PayPal for the charges. On a call with customers service, the representative was of a view that this is my fault and they are not responsible to verify your email. I didn’t use the service entirely for all this period because an email I have been using to login was different as per the CS, to my surprise, how would that be possible if I am signing or paying for the premium using my correct online account then at the first place, then how is it possible that would I be using the different email id, for the premium service. On the other hand, ladders have been posting the job positions on LinkedIn, which are mostly identical to the job positing directly posted by the companies. So why, ladder itself being a job portal soliciting applications through LinkedIn. This seems to be a scam as they are just taking your profiles and charging you for doing nothing. MC

Ladders is a data harvesting scam that pretends to be a normal job application platform and re-lists public openings on LinkedIn pretending to be a recruiting service. Don't fall for it: you don't ever need them to apply for a job, and if you do use them to apply for a job, you will be signed up for 5x daily spam emails that they will not cancel, their unsubscribe doesn't work, their customer service is nonexistent. All they want is to collect your data and sell it.

I've cancelled my services with them over a month ago and I'm still being charged. Through their site, if I "cancel membership" it confirms it. But then, I can keep cancelling and getting the same confirmation...I feel like that says something about what's going on. No matter how many times I've cancelled, I've still gotten charged. So flagging them for fraud, and changing my payment details because they don't seem to care.

Leaders provided terrible resume services then when you ask for a refund 10 minutes after paying they say they will refund you but they lie and instead try to charge you again when they never deliver what they claim in the first place.they don’t provide confirmation of your cancellation either so they can keep charging you.

In today’s society apps like this prey on the vulnerable. Charging individuals seeking employment while promoting that you can get them high paying jobs knowing that is beyond impossible as Ladder’s has no affliation to the companies that they promote jobs for is sickening. The harrassment is next level as they send you dozens of emails everyday even when you never subscribed to them in the first place. Apps like this need to be banned. I was prompted to submit my card information just to apply for the job ON MY OWN, who charges someone to apply for a job ON THEIR OWN????!!!!!! Yall have a better chance of using Indeed, LinkedIn, ClearanceJobs, USAJobs, or simply Googling jobs… Atleast those sites dont charge or harrass you while seeking employment. I wish all those seeking employment the best of luck on your search.
