Review

Visual Design: Can be professional if you pick the right template, also can look like a middle schooler completely lost if you choose wrong. Tons of options to add and choose from-a lot of customization. Can be a little buggy on the editing pages, freezes sometimes.

Navigation: Can be a little tough to learn at first, but once you figure out where the options are you'll be set. Easy to change and add pages and upload files like resumes

Cost: completely free unless you want to make your own domain name.
