y The primary differences between a resume and a curriculumvitae (CV) are the length, what is included and what each is usedfor. Aresume 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 CurriculumVitae is a longer (atleast two page) and more detailed synopsis.
y ACurriculumVitae includes a summary of your educational andacademic backgrounds as well as teaching and researchexperience, publications, presentations, awards, honors,affiliations and other details. In Europe, the Middle East, Africa,
or Asia, employers may expect to receive a curriculum vitae.
y In the United States, a curriculum vitae is used primarily whenapplying for academic, education, scientific or researchpositions. It is also applicable when applying for fellowships or
grants.
