Where does the button appear?

On the candidate record in JobAdder, labelled "Choose and Process CV". It is created automatically when the connection is made and removed again if you disconnect.

Is the connection per user or per company?

Per company. One authorisation serves everyone, so a new consultant has the button on their first day with nothing to set up.

Can it read the CV already on the candidate record?

Yes. JobAdder is a read-and-write integration: you choose from the candidate's existing attachments rather than uploading anything, and the formatted document goes back onto the same record.

Connecting JobAdder

The JobAdder integration installs a Choose and Process CV button on every candidate record and reads the CVs already attached there, so you format in place and the finished document goes straight back.

Connecting JobAdder installs a "Choose and Process CV" button on every candidate record. Clicking it opens RemakeCV with that candidate's attachments listed, so you pick which CV to format without downloading anything, and the finished document goes back onto the same record. It is a read-and-write integration, and the connection is per company — one person connects and everyone gets the button.

JobAdder enabled for your company — our team switches it on, so email support@remakecv.com
A JobAdder account that can authorise partner applications
At least one template configured in RemakeCV

How to connect

Start from RemakeCV
Open the user menu on your dashboard and choose Connect JobAdder. The flow starts here, not inside JobAdder.
Authorise in JobAdder
You are sent to JobAdder's consent screen. Accept every permission requested — the integration asks for read_candidate, write_candidate, offline_access, partner_ui_action and read_user.
partner_ui_action is what installs the button, and offline_access is what keeps the connection alive. Grant the full set at authorisation so every part of the workflow is available from the start.
Check the button appeared
Open any candidate in JobAdder. "Choose and Process CV" should be on the record. Worth confirming on one candidate before you roll out to the team.
Test end to end
Format one candidate and confirm the formatted CV lands back on the record before rolling out to the team.

Reconnecting is self-healing: the existing button is removed and recreated, so disconnecting and reconnecting refreshes the whole setup in one step.

The day-to-day workflow

Open the candidate in JobAdder
Find the candidate whose CV you need.
Click Choose and Process CV
RemakeCV opens with that candidate's attachments listed, newest first.
Pick the CV to format
Choose which attachment is the current CV — useful when a candidate has sent several versions.
Format and review
Choose a template, review the extraction, apply any AI tools.
Send it back
The original goes to the candidate's Resume attachments and the formatted document to FormattedResume, as a .docx.

Sandbox mode

Your company can be pointed at JobAdder's sandbox instead of production, which is useful while you are testing a rollout. Both environments use the same login screen, so tell us which one you want to be on and we will confirm which your account is connected to.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Likely cause	Fix
Was working, now fails for everyone	Company-level token expired or refresh failed	Reconnect
Button missing on candidate records	The button is reinstalled on reconnect	Disconnect and reconnect
"Candidate with this email already exists"	JobAdder rejected a duplicate	Use the existing record
Validation error on candidate creation	First or last name missing	Supply both
Cannot attach the formatted CV	`write_candidate` not granted	Reconnect, accept all permissions
Data looks different from live JobAdder	Connected to sandbox rather than production	Contact support

Driving it from your own system

If your team would rather own the connection, the public REST API gives you the same processing, retrieval and template endpoints our own integrations use — see connecting RemakeCV to any ATS or internal system.

Running another ATS or CRM as well?

RemakeCV integrates with any ATS or CRM your agency runs, not only the platforms already live. Our team builds new integrations on request using the API credentials your provider supplies, and they behave exactly like this one — same templates, same editor, same output. Email support@remakecv.com with the platform name, or see the integrations overview.
