The Candidate Pack is the second on-demand asset. For each candidate you submit, Studio builds a branded one-page PDF and a covering spec email, in your logo, colours and font from the Brand Profile. Anonymisation is on by default and removes anything that identifies the candidate, so an agency can introduce someone before terms are signed without the client going direct.
01 · How it works
What goes in, what comes out.
Output
What you receive
A branded PDF one-pager and a spec email, per candidate, with identifying details removed when anonymised.
02 · Why it matters
Why this exists.
A candidate submission is the moment a recruiter's work becomes visible to the person paying for it. Most look like a forwarded CV with 3 lines on top. The hiring manager reads the CV cold, misses the fit the recruiter saw, and the candidate who should have been interviewed is declined on a skim.
A branded pack changes what the hiring manager reads first: the fit against the spec, the reasons this person, the practicalities, then the CV. It lands consistently, in your brand, every time, so the quality of the submission stops depending on how busy the desk was that afternoon. For agencies, anonymisation is the protection against the client who takes the name and goes direct. Brand Profile is required, because the pack is only worth sending if it looks like you.
03 · What it does

- 02 A covering spec email written to the hiring manager

- 05 On demand, per candidate, for every job
04 · In practice
3 ways it shows up.
Scenario 01
A consultant sends 3 anonymised packs to a prospective client on a Friday. The client signs terms on Monday to get the names.
Scenario 02
An in-house recruiter submits every shortlisted candidate in the same pack format and the hiring manager stops asking for "a bit more on this one".
Scenario 03
A desk with a new brand updates the Brand Profile once and every pack from every job lands in the new look the same day.
05 · Who it's for
Who this is built for.
Agency desks submitting several candidates a week, and in-house teams who want every candidate to land with the hiring manager in the same professional shape.
06 · Common questions
Things people ask.
Do I need a Brand Profile?
Yes. The pack is built in your logo, colours and font, so the Brand Profile has to be set up before the first pack can output. It takes a few minutes and applies everywhere.
What does anonymise remove?
Name, contact details and anything else that identifies the candidate, so the pack can go to a client before terms are agreed. It is on by default; untick it to send a named pack.
Is it a PDF?
Yes, a one-page PDF plus a spec email you can send with it.
How many can I build?
One per candidate you submit, on any job.
Does the candidate see it?
No. The pack is for the hiring manager or client.
Is it included on Solo?
Yes. All 11 playbook assets and the 3 Desk Radar tools are included on Solo at £149 a month, with a 7-day trial. Card required, cancel any time inside the window.
