Branded CV Improvements

Some recruiters love the AI rewrites in branded CVs. Others want the candidate's own words to come through exactly as written. Now you get to choose, section by section.

Open **Brand Builder → CV Templates → Edit Template** and you'll see a new **Content Handling** section in the sidebar. Inside, three toggles:

- **Use Employment History from CV**

- **Use Education History from CV**

- **Use Overview from CV**

Flip any of these on and that section will be pulled straight from the candidate record into the branded CV. No polishing, no rewording, no AI in the loop for that block.The rest of the template still benefits from AI for the sections you leave switched off.

When this is useful

- Senior or technical candidates whose self-written experience reads better than any rewrite

- Regulated sectors where altering candidate-supplied wording is a compliance risk

- Multilingual CVs where the original phrasing needs to be preserved

- Cases where you've already hand-edited the candidate record and just want that text on the page

How to edit the text

Because the section is taken as-is from the candidate, the way to change what appears on the CV is to edit the candidate record directly (Employment History, Education, or Overview on the candidate profile). The branded CV will pick up your edits the next time it's generated.

Defaults

All three toggles are **off** by default, so existing templates keep behaving exactly as they do today.

Turn them on only for the templates where you want the original content to come through.
