Information

The difference between CV and Resume is very clear; CV covers all the aspects of a person’s career while Resume is straight forward to the particular job. CV is more detailed as compared to a Resume. There is no contradiction as well as confusion between these two terms. In most of the countries, while the course of employment, CV or a resume is demanded from the candidates. The contents of the two, documents differ in many respects, which is discussed in this article.

Resume – это небольшие сведения о вашем образовании, опыте работы и профессиональных навыках, а также умениях.

CV (Curriculum Vitae) – более полная справка, включающая подробную информацию о вашем образовании, опыте работы и профессиональных навыках, а также умениях, содержащая сведения о наградах и достижениях.

В нашей стране они используются как синонимы для определения понятия «резюме на английском языке». В последнее время граница между этими понятиями совсем размылась, и термины CV и resume можно расценивать как идентичные.

Look at the resume and answer the questions.

How many parts does it consist of? What are they?

1.Translate other rules of writing CV

Never write!

• Don’t use cheap paper. Don’t use bright colours, if you want to look conservative and business-like.

• Don’t write a resume longer than 2 pages. Never write it on two sides of the same paper.

• Don’t forget to put your name on the second page, if you have two-page resume.

• Don’t handwrite your resume. The best way of typing a resume is using a computer and a printer.

• Don’t include personal information such as: weight, nationality, race, desired salary, the reasons why you left the previous job ( sometimes personal interests and hobbies).

• Don’t use “I”-statements because it’s a formal document but not a story.

• Don’t forget to give your work experience and education in reverse chronological order.

• Don’t avoid to use active verbs such as “managed”, “provided”, “directed”, “coordinated”, “accomplished”, “maintained”, “encouraged”, “increased”, “conducted”, “participated”.
