CV Builder for ORP counselors: help your job seekers land a position

A digital tool for professional integration

Counselors at Regional Employment Offices (ORP/RAV) support job seekers daily in their search for employment. The quality of a CV is a decisive factor in this process. CV Builder was designed to address this reality: a simple, professional, and free tool that enables clients to create a CV that meets Swiss employer expectations. The tool integrates naturally into the ORP workflow. In a few clicks, you generate an invitation code that your client activates upon registration. No installation is needed, no prior training required. The interface is available in French, German, Italian, English, and Spanish, covering the linguistic diversity of job seekers in Switzerland. SECO (State Secretariat for Economic Affairs) recommends that employment offices offer digital tools to improve the employability of registered individuals. CV Builder fulfils this objective by providing a concrete, measurable, and immediately operational service. For more on Swiss job market standards, see: /en/swiss-cv-2026.

Integration into the ORP workflow

Using CV Builder does not change your working method. During a counseling session, identify clients whose CV needs improvement. Generate a code from your counselor dashboard and provide it to the job seeker. The client creates an account on cv-builder.ch, enters the code, and immediately gains access to all features. The CV can be worked on independently or during a group workshop. The PDF export allows the client to send applications directly or upload their CV to arbeit.swiss. The tool is compatible with standard browsers and requires no local installation, making it usable from ORP workstations and from the job seeker's home.

Templates that meet Swiss market standards

The 34 templates available in CV Builder comply with Swiss job market conventions. Each template includes the specific fields expected by Swiss recruiters: professional photo, nationality, residence or work permit, and detailed language skills. Designs are tested for ATS (Applicant Tracking System) compatibility, ensuring the CV is correctly parsed by the automated sorting software used by major companies and placement agencies across Switzerland.
