scholarship and fellowship applications.
Resume
What is it used for? Typically, you will use a resume when you apply for
business, industry, governmental, and non-profit jobs. The main purpose of
the resume is to help you get an interview. A polished resume is your chance
to make a good first impression with potential employers.
Common belief is that the difference between a curriculum vitae (CV) and
arsum (commonly written as resume) is that a CV is used in the UK while a
resume is used in the US. While that is true, there is actually a small difference
between the two documents. A resume is typically not more than a page long, and
contains a summary of a person's relevant job experience and education. A
curriculum vitae - which means "course of life" in Latin - is a longer document that
includes details of important but relatively less relevant things, like a more detailed
description of education, publications, awards, affiliations and other academic
accomplishments.
Both are typically used to screen applicants, often followed by an interview, when
seeking employment.
