Available Settings

  1. Enable Alternative File Names for Attach: (Disabled by default). If enabled, users will see a Rename (Optional) field on the Resume Share page. This will enable you to change the resume file name before emailing the ClientClosed A Company is the organization where the contact works. This can also be called the Client..
  2. Make CV Default: (Enabled by default). When users edit a resume in Resume Manager or apply a template to it, a new version of the resume is created and saved as a Contact Document. The standard behavior is that the most recently created resume is flagged as the Default resume, which is the version indexed for Search and Match. This setting gives the option to exclude edited or formatted resumes from being tagged as Default.
  3. Default PDF Recognition Mode: (Default value is Flow). See PDF Recognition Mode below for full details.
  4. Always as PDF: (Disabled by Default). When selected, all resume files sent as attachments from the Resume Share page will be sent as PDFs.
  5. Enable CV Sharing With Users: (Disabled by default). Check this to include Salesforce Users in the To field when sending an email from Resume Share.
  6. Send as PDF: (Disabled by default). If enabled, a Send as PDF checkbox is added to the Resume Share page that can be marked to send the attachment as a PDF.

Admin Note

Settings 1, 4, and 6 also apply to two ATS v2 pages: Submit with Email and SendoutClosed A Client Submission (Sendouts, CV Sent) occurs when a recruiter sends a candidate to the hiring manager for approval to have an interview. Schedule. Configuring these settings will be reflected in those two pages (if your Org uses the ATS v2 data model) as well as the Resume Manager and Resume Share pages.

PDF Recognition Mode

When formatting resumes with templates, users should choose Word documents rather than PDFs since PDF is not optimized for editing. When you need to start with a PDF, Resume Manager offers two modes of PDF interpretation to convert a PDF for editing:

  • Flow
  • Textbox

There is a picklist in the Resume Manager to select which PDF Recognition Mode to use:

Textbox Mode

Textbox attempts to put the correct text in specific places, however, this approach limits the users ability to edit efficiently.

Textbox mode is fast and good for preserving the original look of the PDF file, but the editability of the resulting document may be limited. Every visually grouped block of text in the original PDF is converted into a textbox in the output document. The output document will closely resemble the original visually, but it consists entirely of textboxes and can be difficult to edit in Microsoft Word.

Flow Mode

Flow is full recognition mode, where the engine performs grouping and multi-level analysis to restore the original document as closely as possible while producing an easily editable document. The limitation is that the output document might look different from the original. Flow tends to work better on resumes that have continuous text.

The new dropdown is only visible in Resume Manager if the resume file is a PDF.

Admin Note

You can set a default PDF Recognition Mode. Out of the box, the default is Flow but that can be changed in Custom Settings:

  1. Navigate to Setup > Custom Settings > Resume Manager Settings
  2. Enter the desired value in Default_PDF_Recognition_Mode
