Curriculum Vitae Vs. Resume? The Diference! by olaolaking: 8:20pm On Aug 21, 2009
What is the difference between curriculum vitae (CV) and a resume?
Answer: The primary differences between a resume and 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, Curriculum Vitae is a longer (at least two page) and more detailed synopsis.

A Curriculum Vitae includes a summary of your educational and academic backgrounds as well as teaching and research experience, publications, presentations, awards, honors, affiliations and other details. In Europe, the Middle East, Africa, or Asia, employers may expect to receive curriculum vitae.

In the United States, a curriculum vita is used primarily when applying for academic, education, scientific or research positions. It is also applicable when applying for fellowships or grants.

PLS CAN;T YOU SEE YOUR SAYING THE SAME THING?
NOW, CURRICULUM VITAE IS FRENCH WHILE RESUME IS LATIN THAT IS WHY THE AMERICANS ARE USED TO RESUME. THEY MEAN THE SAME THING AND STAND FOR THE SAME PURPOSE.
