CV Watermark

Overview

The CV Watermark feature allows you to automatically or manually apply a branded watermark (such as your company logo) to candidate CVs.

This helps:

Protect candidate ownership
Maintain brand visibility
Prevent unauthorised sharing
Standardise CV presentation

No credits are required to use this feature.

How to Enable CV Watermark

Step 1: Go to System Configuration

Navigate to the top-right corner of your system.
Click on System Configuration.
Locate the CV Watermark option (fourth row, last column).

Step 2: Enable the Watermark

Toggle the button labeled Enable Watermark.
Once enabled, the watermark configuration settings will become available.

Uploading Your Watermark

Step 3: Upload Your Logo

Only PNG format is supported.
Click Upload and select your logo file.
Ensure the image is clear and high resolution for best results.

Customising the Watermark

Once your logo is uploaded, you can configure how it appears on CVs.

Step 4: Select Watermark Position

Choose where the watermark should appear:

Center
Top Left
Top Right
Bottom Left
Bottom Right

Select the position that best fits your branding preference.

Step 5: Adjust Opacity and Scale (Size)

Increase opacity for a more visible watermark.
Decrease opacity for a subtle, background-style effect.
Increase scale to enlarge the logo.
Decrease scale to make it smaller.

This controls how transparent the watermark appears. And, Scale determines the overall size of the watermark on the CV.

Step 6: Choose Page Application

You can decide how the watermark is applied:

Apply to all pages
Apply only to the first page (default if all pages option is disabled)

Configuring Default Application Settings

You can define where the watermark should automatically apply.

Choose whether to apply the watermark to:

Original CV
Agency CV
CVs when passed individually
CVs when bulk passed
LinkedIn-generated CVs
CVs sent via email

These settings allow you to fully control default watermark behaviour.

From the Candidate Profile

Go to the Candidate section.
Open an individual candidate profile.
If the CV does not already have a watermark, navigate to the candidate’s CV tab and click Apply Watermark.
The watermark will be added instantly.
