23. Difference between resume and cv
The primary differences between a resume and a 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 CV is a longer (at least two pages) and more detailed
synopsis.
