Why recruiters convert Excel to PDF

A recruiter merges shortlisted resumes into one packet for the hiring manager, redacts contact details for a blind first review, and sends the offer letter for signature.

Built for resumes. Whether it's resumes, shortlists, offer letters, Arthize's excel to pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Candidate data is personal; a private workspace keeps resumes and notes confidential.

What matters when you convert Excel to PDF

Converting to PDF locks the spreadsheet's print layout.

Recipients can read it without Excel installed.

Print areas and page breaks are respected in the output.
