Key terms explained
Plain-English definitions of the terms used on this page.

- MSP (managed service provider)
An organisation that manages a client's contingent workforce programme, including which staffing suppliers are used and how candidates are submitted — often with strict CV format rules.
- Retained search

Solution questions, answered
Who is FormatMyCV for?
FormatMyCV is for any team that presents candidate CVs to clients or hiring managers — recruitment agencies, staffing agencies, executive search firms, RPO providers and in-house talent teams. It gives every consultant the same branded, client-ready CV in seconds, with bulk processing for volume and one-click anonymisation for blind shortlists.
Does FormatMyCV work for small agencies?
Yes. Boutique agencies often feel the formatting burden most because consultants do everything themselves. The free Trial and the Essential plan (300 CVs per month) are designed for smaller teams.
Can in-house talent teams use FormatMyCV?
Yes. In-house teams use it to present candidates to hiring managers in one consistent internal format and to anonymise CVs for fairer early-stage reviews.
Can we use different templates for different clients?
Yes. Keep a template per client, office or market in your workspace and switch between them in one click.
Do we need to integrate FormatMyCV with our ATS?
No. FormatMyCV works alongside whatever you use today — your ATS or CRM, Outlook or Gmail, shared drives and LinkedIn — with no integration project.
