Paid $400 for a resume writer and I honestly can't tell if it helped or not

Spent the money back in March after getting auto rejected from like 30 jobs. She rewrote everything, made it sound way fancier than I actually am. Got 2 callbacks in the next month. But here's the thing, I also started applying to smaller companies around the same time. So was it the resume or the different jobs? No idea. Now I'm staring at a $400 doc that I'm scared to edit because what if I mess up the magic. Anyone else pay for one of these and actually figure out if it worked or not?
