Here, you can determine which components appear on the CV Generator page. The name of the available components are:

  • Candidate
  • Introduction
  • JobApplication
  • WorkExperiences
  • Educations
  • Recruiter
  • JobCriteria
  • PersonalityMatch
  • HardCriteria

You can also specify a custom fieldset to be used instead of the standard fieldset for a specific component. The name of the fieldset needs to be listed inside square brackets. For example, Candidate[Apply_page]. This will result in the Apply_page fieldset being used and not the standard CV Generator fieldset.

CV generator templates

Education month format

Layout (HTML)
The application provides the possibility to generate PDF CVs from a Candidate file. These CVs all have a standard layout, but you might want to make them more personal. In order to do this, this setting provides the possibility to add text (e.g. contact details of your organisation), photo's, several fieldsets of the Candidate object, related lists or images (e.g. your company logo) to these CVs. This adjustment has to be made by typing HTML in this setting. Beside adding images or text, this setting is used to add merge fields to the PDF CV. In that way, it is possible to adjust the complete layout of the PDF CV.

Stylesheet
This setting allows you to override the stylesheet of the PDF CV that can be generated in the candidate file. The stylesheet contains the look & feel of the form (font types, (background) colors, etc).

Preferred English locale

Work experience month format



Visualforce page

Putting a field on the fieldset does not make it appear in the preview, this needs to be done via a Visualforce page.

Go to Salesforce set up > Build > Develop > VisualForce pages and choose the page called "cxsCVExample"

You can use CSS here to style the page anyway you want, where this example can help you to get started. 

If you want to make sure to only show the sections with values in it, please use the code as below:

<cxsrec:hasMapEntry map="{!candidateFieldMap}" key="cxsrec__Nationality__c">

       <tr>

           <td class="spacer">›</td>

           <td>Nationality:</td>

           <td><cxsrec:getMapValue map="{!candidateFieldMap}" key="cxsrec__Nationality__c"/></td>

       </tr>

       </cxsrec:hasMapEntry>

 

Adding new generated CV to the settings

If the standard CV template does not fit your situation then you must create a new Visualforce Page, as the template can not be adjusted. You can use the template cxsCVExample as baseline for you new CV. 

When creating a new VisualForce page the following steps need to be done to get the template selectable and visible in the CV Generator screen

A. Go to Salesforce setup > Build > Develop > Site 

B. Click on the Site Label

C. Edit the "Site Visualforce Pages" to enable your new page.

D. Go to Connexys setup > Application settings and choose "Generate CV in PDF format" to add additional templates.

    

 

Note: This Visualforce page can be edited to style the Generated CV.
