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.

Q1) I assume we are talking about the filter "Birthplace", I have done below modifications in your website:
Edit the post view:
hidden link
In section "Search and Pagination", find and select the "birthplace" filter, click button "Edit filter":
- Option "Type of control" choose "Select dropdown"
- Option "Dropdown Placeholder" fill "All"
See my screenshot filter-option.jpg
Q2) You can add another row, display those fields label, see the above post view, section "Search and Pagination", line 4~9:
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3"></div>
<div class="col-md-3"></div>
<div class="col-md-3"><label for="wpv-wpcf-birthplace">[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]Birthplace[/wpml-string]</label></div>
<div class="col-md-3"></div>
</div>
See the result in frontend:
hidden link
Q4) You can put the pagination control where you want, both Search and Pagination and Loop Editor, in most cases, you can put it into "Search and Pagination"
Q5) Since you are using "Relevanss" plugin in your website, you need to add the custom post type "First Republic Passport Applications" into Relevanss index, for example:
hidden link
in section "Post types", enable option "passport-application"
and rebuild the index.
It works fine in frontend, please check if it is fixed.

5 - Search is not working properly, when I write "manouk", it doesn't find it.

Thanks in advance
1) You just need to click into shortcode [wpv-control-postmeta field="wpcf-birthplace" ...
and click button button "Edit filter", see my screenshot
2) There isn't such kind of built-in feature within Classic editor, you will need to customize the buttons with custom CSS codes, for example:
hidden link
According to our support policy we don't provide such kind custom codes support
3) Please check the CSS codes in below document:
hidden link
If you need assistance for them, please create new tickets for each question.
4) As I mentioned above, your website is using "Relevanss" plugin, and the post search result was taken over by "Relevanss" plugin, you need to:
1) Rebuild "Relevanss" index
See our document:
https://toolset.com/course-lesson/searching-texts-in-custom-fields-with-toolset-and-relevanssi/
2) It is not recommended to use normal post view to replace the WordPress Archive, it will conducts unexpected result. In your case, you need to edit the post view "PA View", in section "Query Options", disable option: Don't include current page in query result
My issue is resolved now. Thank you!
