What's the difference between a resume and a curriculum vitae?

A curriculum vitae (CV) is an academic resume that is used for research and teaching employment in colleges and universities. A resume is a one-page document that highlights job experience. A CV can be as long as it takes to list one’s credentials, publications, papers presented, and other information. When individuals ask for a CV, they should actually be asking for a resume. Make sure you’re utilizing the right version for the job by checking with the person who requested it.
