Welcome to this article on the new resume formatting feature launched by Recruiterflow. In this article, we will explore how this feature works and how it can help you streamline your recruitment process.

The new resume formatting feature allows users to create a customized resume template that they can use to format their candidates' resumes quickly and easily. To create a template, simply go to the settings tab, click on document settings, and select create a resume template.

In the template, you can add a header, footer, and sections for experience and education all you need to do is simply drag and drop the sections that you would like to your cover letter. You can also add a watermark to your template to give it a professional touch.

One of the major benefits of this feature is that recruiters can now choose to hide candidates' contact information while sharing their profiles with clients. This ensures that the candidate's personal details are kept confidential. The section that you select will not be included in the resume format template that you are creating.

For example- As you can see in the screenshot attached below the section email and phone number are selected this means that the formatted resume will not include this information about the candidate in the resume.

Once you have created your template, you can apply it to a candidate's resume by going to the candidate's profile, clicking on the files tab, selecting the resume file, and clicking on the three dots. From there, select "create a formatted resume," and then select your template from the drop down after which the candidate's resume will be automatically formatted to match the template you created.

Another useful aspect of this feature is that recruiters can choose to share a candidate's resume or the formatted resume using their public profile link and they can also use this formatted resume while they are submitting a candidate to a client. This allows recruiters to maintain control over the information they share with clients and helps them to maintain a professional image.

Additionally, we have recently made a new update where if you want you can manually Redact a resume from the candidate's profile directly.
