I dropped $300 on a 'career coach' who just gave me a generic resume template

I was feeling stuck at my call center job and saw an ad for a local career coach. I paid for three sessions, about $300 total. All she did was give me a basic resume template I could have found online for free and told me to 'network more'. It felt like a total scam and set me back financially when I was already tight on cash. Has anyone else tried something like this and actually gotten good, specific advice that helped? I'm trying to figure out my next step without wasting more money.

Demand a refund, that's just lazy.

My cousin waited 6 months for a refund on a couch. It's not lazy, it's exhausting.
