Question: Curriculum Vitae vs. Resume?

What is the difference between a curriculum vitae (CV) and a
resume?

Answer: The primary differences between a resume and a
curriculum vitae (CV) are the length, what is included and
what each is used for. A resume is a one or two page
summary of your skills, experience and education. While a
resume is brief and concise - no more than a page or two, a
curriculum vitae is a longer (at least two pages) and more
detailed synopsis.
