CV Vs Resume

Difference between CV and Resume

1.CV
A CV (Curriculum Vitae, which means a course of life in Latin) is an in-depth document that can be laid out over two or more pages and it contains a high level of detail about your achievements, a great deal more than just a career biography. The CV covers your education as well as any other accomplishments like publications, awards, honors, etc.

2. Resume
A Resume, or Résumé, is a concise document typically not longer than one page as the meant the reader will not stay on your record for extremely long. The aim of a resume is to make a man or woman stand proud of the competition.

Tips and Guidelines While Making CV/Resume

I hope you’re good. Below are a few factors the use of which you can further enhance your CV:

  • Always email your CV in a PDF model. The MS Word version will look unprofessional and sometimes might be possible that other person have different version of Microsoft word.
  • Always rename the CV with your name such as, “Resume_Name”.
  • Your CV need to not be a couple of pages long.
