Swiss candidate profile template (Kandidatenprofil Schweiz)
A Swiss Personalberatung or executive search firm presents a candidate to its client with a Kandidatenprofil. This Word template is in German with Swiss spelling (ss, never ß). It opens with the position, client, consultant and date, then the candidate's name and current role. The Eckdaten show what Swiss clients ask first: residence, nationality, work permit (B, C, G, L or Swiss citizen), notice period, current salary and salary expectation in CHF with the number of monthly salaries and bonus, Pensum (workload percentage) and availability, each only as stated. Then come the consultant's short assessment, strengths for the role, motivation to move, open points, career, education and languages with their level. Formatix fills it from the CV and your interview notes.
The work permit and nationality appear only as the candidate stated them. Formatix never derives a permit from nationality, residence or languages, and never works out a start date from the notice period. Motivation and open points come only from your notes.
10 free credits, no card needed. One credit fills one document.
For recruitment and search firms. Formatix formats your candidates' CVs into your firm's template; it is not a tool for writing your own CV.
An editable file with neutral branding and a fictional example candidate, to fill in by hand. Formatix fills it automatically from a CV.
