The exact change
A 2021 study by TopResume analyzing 7,500 job seekers found that professionally rewritten resumes generated 32% more interviews and resulted in job offers 31% faster than the original versions.
A 2021 TopResume study surveyed 132 job seekers who had requested a free resume review, comparing those who went on to hire TopResume for a professionally written resume against those who used a self-written one. 46% of the professionally-written group landed a new job, versus 14% of the self-written group, and 68% of the professionally-written group found that job within three months.
Why this is better
Checked the TopResume source directly: the real study surveyed 132 job seekers, not 7,500, and the real result is a job-landing rate (46% vs 14%), not an interview-count figure. The 31% faster figure does not appear in the source.
