Requesting a custom branded template
Send us your existing agency CV template and we rebuild it inside RemakeCV — fully custom, typically within 24 hours — so every formatted CV matches the document your clients already recognise.
Email your existing agency CV template — ideally a Word document plus one or two completed example CVs — to support@remakecv.com. Our team rebuilds it as a fully custom RemakeCV template, typically within 24 hours, sends you a sample for review, and applies your corrections before making it live for your whole company. There is no design system to conform to and no limit on how bespoke the layout can be.
What should I send?
Your template as a Word document
The
.docxyou use today. A Word file tells us far more than a PDF, because we can see the actual styles, spacing and table structure rather than guessing from a picture.One or two completed example CVs
A blank template shows the design; a filled-in CV shows the intent. Examples answer the questions a blank file cannot — how you handle a candidate with ten roles, what happens when a job title runs onto two lines, how you show current roles.
Your logo
High-resolution PNG with a transparent background, or SVG. See logos, fonts and colours.
Any rules that aren't visible in the file
Things like "we always show duration in years and months", "we never include the candidate's address", "the profile section must be third person". These are cheap to build in up front and tedious to retrofit.
What happens next?
- We build it. Our team reproduces your template inside RemakeCV.
- You review a sample. We send a real CV rendered in the new template.
- You mark up corrections. Spacing, wording, ordering — whatever is not right.
- We apply and go live. The template becomes available to your whole company.
Review the sample against a difficult CV, not an easy one. A candidate with fifteen years of history, several roles at one employer and a long skills list will expose layout problems that a two-page graduate CV never will.
What if I don't have a template yet?
Tell us what you want and we will design one. It is worth having a view on:
- Whether you want a cover page
- Whether CVs are anonymised by default
- Which sections you always want, and in what order
- What custom fields you need — expected salary, notice period, consultant details
Can I get a client-branded version?
Yes, and it is a common request — many clients require submissions in their own template. We reproduce the client's design as a variant alongside your house template, and scope it so the team working that account sees it. There is no limit on how many client-branded variants you run. See template variants.
How long does it take?
Typically 24 hours from receiving your files to a sample landing in your inbox for review. Your corrections are then applied and the template goes live for your whole company.
Send your files to support@remakecv.com and we will confirm the turnaround for your specific template when we have seen it.
Frequently asked questions
- What do you need from me?
- Your existing template as a Word file, one or two completed example CVs showing how it looks when filled in, and your logo as a high-resolution PNG or SVG.
- Do I have to redesign my template?
- No. The usual request is to reproduce the template you already use, exactly, so your output looks like what clients receive today. Templates are fully custom — whatever your design does, we rebuild it.
- How long does a custom template take to build?
- Typically 24 hours from receiving your files. You then review a sample and we apply any corrections before it goes live for your company.
- Can I have more than one template?
- Yes. Most agencies end up with a house template plus client-specific variants.
