1. Describe the problem:
We are an outstaff company. Here's how our process works: our HR specialists find IT professionals, conduct interviews and technical screening, then adapt the resume to a single, unified CV template of our company.
Then our sales managers take this unified CV and send it to partners — companies looking for IT specialists through us.
And here's where the pain begins.
5 of our key partners have their own CV templates. And they're all different:
Before sending, our managers have to manually reformat our unified CV into each partner's specific template. It's not just copy-paste — the order of sections changes, field names change, the level of detail changes.

And here's where the pain begins.
5 of our key partners have their own CV templates. And they're all different:
- One has a strict corporate template with a logo
- Another has an extended format with detailed project descriptions
- A third has a minimalist version — just key skills
- Some require a photo, others don't
- Sometimes a translation into English is needed

2. How often does the problem occur?
The flow is uneven, wave-like: from 3–4 to 10–15 adaptations per week. During peak weeks, employees spend dozens of hours on this routine. This has been going on for over a year.
3. What attempts have you made to solve the problem?
Currently, everything is done manually. It drains our managers and creates risks of data transfer errors.
We've looked for ready-made solutions on the market — found nothing. We considered document builders (Google Docs, Word templates), but they can't handle the custom requirements of our partners. Implementing complex corporate systems for just 5 templates is too expensive and time-consuming.

4. How much are you willing to pay for the solution?
We can't name an exact amount yet — we need to analyze market rates. But we are ready to discuss a fair price for a tool that removes this headache.
