For CFAs (French apprenticeship training centers) and their corporate relations teams

Help your apprentices sign before the 3 months are up

An apprentice without a host company has 3 months to sign their contract. CVpass helps them send, for each job posting, a CV that gets past recruiters' filters. Your team tracks who's making progress.

Free, no commitment. Reply within 48 business hours.

When it comes to finding a company, the CV is often the sticking point

The 3-month deadline

Without a contract signed within 3 months of the start of the program, the apprentice can't continue their apprenticeship.

Applications that go unanswered

Many companies screen CVs with software. A CV without the right keywords gets rejected before anyone reads it, with no explanation.

A team that's already stretched thin

Corporate relations officers reach out to companies, place apprentices and follow up on contracts: reviewing every CV for every job posting isn't possible.

How it works

  1. 01

    You invite your apprentices from your dashboard, via a link or a list of email addresses.

  2. 02

    Each apprentice tailors their CV to every work-study posting: missing keywords, rewrites of weak lines, a CV ready to send.

  3. 03

    You see who's using the tool and who hasn't started, so you can follow up before the deadline.

Example

What gets a CV rejected, and what the student fixes

Headline

BTS student (a French two-year vocational degree), motivated and energetic, looking for a company

Work-study sales associate | BTS MCO (retail management)

Recruiters and screening software look for a job title.

Skills

People person, good with customers, enjoys teamwork…

Customer service · Cash handling · Shelf stocking · Inventory management · Upselling

The software matches keywords against the job posting, not sentences.

Experience

Summer job in a store: helped with various tasks

Sales associate (summer fixed-term contract): greeted and advised customers, handled checkout, restocked the clothing section

Each bullet says what was done, in the words of the target job.

You see who's making progress, and who needs a nudge

The school dashboard shows, for each student, the CVs analysed, the PDFs downloaded and their latest activity. You can spot at a glance the ones who haven't started yet.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does CVpass help a CFA whose apprentices don't have a host company yet?

Each apprentice tailors their CV to every work-study posting: CVpass shows them the keywords missing compared with the posting and suggests rewrites for their weak lines. That way they send applications that get past recruiters' filters, and your team sees who's making progress.

How much does CVpass cost for a school or a CFA?

Three annual plans: Essentiel at €1,490 per year for up to 100 students, Campus at €3,490 per year for up to 400 students, and Réseau on quote, from €7,000 per year for multiple campuses. The first 5 schools get 30% off the first year.

How can we test it before committing?

Send 3 to 5 CVs from students who are still looking for a host company, anonymised if you prefer. Within 48 business hours, you get, for each one, what was getting it rejected and the corrected version. It's free, with no commitment.

How much time does it take for our team?

A few minutes to invite students from the dashboard (a link or a list of email addresses). After that, each student works on their own CVs and you check activity whenever you like.

What does the student do in CVpass?

They upload their CV and the job posting they're interested in. CVpass shows them the missing keywords, suggests rewrites for their weak lines and lets them download a CV that recruiters' screening software can read. They can also prepare their cover letter and practice for interviews.

Is there a usage limit per student?

Yes, a generous monthly limit that covers an active search (around twenty CV tailorings per month). It prevents abuse without getting in students' way, and you can request an extension for a student.

Where is student data hosted?

In the European Union (Frankfurt). A data processing agreement compliant with Article 28 of the GDPR is ready to sign, and the workspace is anonymised 6 months after the contract ends if there is no activity.

What happens at the end of the year?

Access lasts one year from the day your workspace opens. You get a reminder 30 days before the end to renew; without renewal, student access stops.

Try it on the CVs of your apprentices without a host company

Send 3 to 5 CVs from students who are still looking for a host company. For each one, you get what was getting it rejected and the corrected version.
