CV formatter for recruitment agencies

    Recruiter CV formatting: a CV formatter built for recruitment agencies

    Recruiter CV formatting means sending clients your document, not a generic one. Most CV formatters give every agency the same clean layout. Yours is different: the profile your clients recognise, the sections they expect, the logo in the corner. Formatix.AI is a CV formatter that learns your documents, so every candidate goes out looking like they came from your firm.

    How the CV formatter works

    1. 1

      Show it your document

      Upload a finished profile, bio or shortlist deck. The template agent identifies the candidate data, keeps everything that is yours, and builds the template. A filled sample arrives by email for you to approve or correct in your own words.

    2. 2

      Give it a CV

      Any layout, any language, PDF or Word or a photo of a printout. The extraction maps it to your template's sections, including repeating career entries and nested achievements.

    3. 3

      Check it beside the original

      The formatted document opens next to the source CV. Edit in place if you want, then download or email it.

    Every format your clients ask for

    Executive search firms send profiles in Word, shortlists in PowerPoint and longlists in Excel. This formatter produces all of them, from the same extraction, in your template for each.

    Word

    Profiles, bios and full formatted CVs in your .docx template.

    PowerPoint

    Candidate slides and shortlist decks in your deck design.

    Excel

    Longlists, trackers and progress reports with one row per candidate.

    PDF

    Locked versions of any output.

    Built for how agencies actually work

    • Your template, built for you

      No designer, no brief. Upload the document and the agent converts it, then walks through corrections with you by email until it is approved.

    • One-click formatting for consultants

      Drop a CV, pick the template, done. Consultants never see the placeholders or the prompt behind it.

    • Executive search depth

      Career histories with several roles per employer, achievements under each role, languages, memberships, referees: the extraction keeps the structure your profiles need.

    • Inside ChatGPT, Claude and other AI assistants that support connectors

      Consultants who live in an AI assistant can format from there through the MCP connection, with their Formatix account.

    • Email-in formatting

      Forward a CV to the formatting address and get the finished document back by reply.

    • Candidate data handled properly

      Hosted in the UK (AWS London), kept only for the retention period you set, and never used for training.

    Questions recruiters ask

    Is this a free CV formatter?
    The first ten CVs are free on every new account with no card required. After that plans start at £20 a month for 20 CVs, and agencies on ChatGPT, Claude or other AI assistants that support connectors can format through the MCP connection using the same plan credits.
    Will it match our house style exactly?
    The template is built from your own document, so fonts, colours, logo and section order are yours. You check a filled sample by email before it goes live and reply with any corrections.
    Can consultants use it without training?
    Yes. A consultant drops a CV, picks the template and downloads the result. Template creation and corrections happen by email with the agent.
    What about scanned CVs and photos?
    Scanned PDFs and images are read with OCR before extraction, so a photographed CV formats the same way as a Word file.
    Does it integrate with our ATS?
    Yes, natively with JobAdder, Manatal, Salesforce, HubSpot and Ezekia: new CVs on a record are formatted and attached back (with Manatal, you build reports from the candidates in each Manatal job), on every plan including the free trial. Any other ATS works with Formatix by email, with no integration needed: forward the CV to [email protected] and the formatted document comes back by reply, ready to attach. The REST API (Agency plan and above) can automate it.
    What does 'cv formatting tool recruitment' actually mean in practice?
    A tool that takes the CV a candidate sends and returns the document your client expects, in your branding, with the sections your consultants use. That is what this formatter does, and it is built around the documents recruitment agencies already send rather than a generic layout.
