when a prospective employer asks you to send them your resume/CV, what is the "CV"?

Question

They have my resume, now they have asked for my CV.

Answer 1

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 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 expect to receive a curriculum vitae.

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

Answer 2

Cirriculum Vitae like Adrian mentioned. I never knew what the difference was between a CV and a resume, but I was thought you had to put the title of "cirriculum vitae of firstname lastname" at the top rather than just your full name.

I also thought cirriculum vitae meant you added references and other credentials also.

Answer 3

These days, curriculum vitae is used interchangeably with resume. Many employers look on them as being the same thing.

Answer 4

Curriculum vitae or educational history is also used interchangeably with resume.

Answer 5

Certification Verification?

Answer 6

CV is your cirriculum vitae, which is basically any qualifications you have, where you went to school, previous jobs and references
