1 - design search like the one I did in archive loop (see image)
2 - align header titles (they look off a bit

Hello,

Please share your website credentials in below private message box, also point out the problem page URL, I need to check it in a live website, thanks

The page you mentioned above is a WordPress Archive page of post type "passport-application"
There are one post view and one WordPress Archive in the page you mentioned above, I assume you are going to design the post view "PA View":
hidden link

1) Please edit above post view, in section "Search and Pagination", click button "Grid", it can setup Bootstrap grids, for example lines 12~17:

<div class="row">
	<div class="col-md-3">Cell 1</div>
	<div class="col-md-3">Cell 2</div>
	<div class="col-md-3">Cell 3</div>
	<div class="col-md-3">Cell 4</div>
</div>

See the results in frontend:

2) You can use custom CSS codes to style the table header text, for example:

td, th {
    text-align: center;
}

3) You can customize the "Read more" shortcode text by follow our document, for example:
[wpv-post-read-more label="Continue reading"]
Then style it to button with custom CSS codes

4) In section "Search and Pagination", you can click button "Sorting controls" and setup it as what you want.

Ok I got the hang of it, but I still have some visual issues.

1 - How do I set a placeholder for the dropdown (like the 2nd filter I have)?

2 - How do I make the submit look the same as the bottom one?

see screenshot
hidden link

3 - change read more text (maybe change it to a button)
Did not quite understand your explanation

4 - where do I add the pagination control? in Search and Pagination or Loop Editor?

5 - Search is not working properly. When I write "Mar" or "Mariam" it doesn't find the correct post. See screenshots.

Q3) I have done below modifications in your website, edit the post view:
hidden link
In section "Loop item in PA View", line 9, change the shortcode from:
[wpv-post-read-more]
To:
[wpv-post-read-more label="Continue reading"]

See the result here:
hidden link
You should be able to see the link "Continue reading", you just need to use CSS codes to style that link as what you want.
