Curricula Vitae

From the infamous Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the “Definition of curriculum vitae (Latin) is: “a short account of one’s career and qualifications prepared typically by an applicant for a position.”

Hmm. You might ask “What is the significance of such a thing compared to a resume?”

A Curricula Vitae (CV) offers a full history of your academic credentials.

A resume shows a quick overview of your skills and qualities for a certain and/or specific job.

Does this help?

Furthermore, CVs are used by persons pursuing fellowships, grants, postdoctoral positions, and higher level teaching/research positions in any industry.

For instance, I wrote and polished my CV when founding this business. I did so to give readers the extra faith in me and my qualifications to assist them in their writing endeavors.

Think long and hard about creating a CV. Creations and updates of resumes can be just as difficult. Depending on the type of position you are interested in, one exploitation may be better than the other.

I hope this information is helpful.
