The CV should address your aptitude, experience, and skills; and display your education related to a specific position. A CV is mostly utilized in academia, the medical sciences, law, and research-related careers.  \nBy contrast, the resume is a brief (one to two pages) summary of your professional achievements and skills. While the CV provides a full record of your educational and professional life, a resume is typically tailored to a specific position and deliberately connects the applicant to the skills required in the new position.  \nWhat Goes on Your Resume?**  \n❖ Contact Information  \n❖ Objective (Optional)  \n❖ Education  \n❖ Experience  \n➢ Professional  \n➢ Internship  \n➢ Leadership ❖ Projects  \n❖ Skills  \n➢ Technical  \n➢ Language  \nResume Do’s and Don’ts**  \n\n| YES |  | NO |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| ● | Tailor your resume for the job | ➢ | Use “I” or “MY” statements |\n| ●\u003Cbr>●\u003Cbr>●\u003Cbr>●\u003Cbr>●\u003Cbr>● | Make sure your contact info is current Be Honest\u003Cbr>Proofread\u003Cbr>Continuously update your resume Aim to limit to one page\u003Cbr>Include accomplishment statements that use ACTION, PURPOSE, | ➢\u003Cbr>➢\u003Cbr>➢\u003Cbr>➢ | Provide salary information\u003Cbr>Include references or state “available upon request”\u003Cbr>Include photographs\u003Cbr>Disclose personal information: age, gender, religion, weight, marital status, |\n\n\n| RESULT\u003Cbr>○ Action: start each bullet point with an action verb (i.e. developed, created produced, executed)\u003Cbr>○ Purpose: what was the purpose of your action, your responsibility, your assignment, project, ect.\u003Cbr>○ Result: what was the result of your action, what did you accomplish?\u003Cbr>Example: Developed (action) an after school tutoring program for elementary schoolchildren focused on reading comprehension skills (purpose) which resulted in participation of 20 students (result) | test scores, etc.\u003Cbr>➢ List skills without backing them up ➢ Leave out dates |\n| --- | --- |\n\nWhat goes on Your Curriculum Vitae?*  \nIn addition to sections included in a resume, below are possible sections to take into consideration:  \n➔ Academic and Research  \n➔ Certifications  \n➔ Educational Travel  \n➔ Grants Received  \n➔ Professional Affiliations  \n➔ Professional Presentations  \n➔ Publications  \n➔ Special Training  \nFormat  \nPrioritize the information on your CV, and provide it in chronological order.  \nDevote more space to the most important aspects of your background.  \nConsider developing more than one CV if you are applying for different positions.  \nAppearance  \nSimilar to a resume, a CV should be well structured, concise, and easy to read and follow. A CV differs from a resume in the sense that a CV can be as long as it needs to be.  \n*Found on [http://www.fullerton.edu/career/students/resumes-cover-letters/curriculum-vitae.php](http://www.fullerton.edu/career/students/resumes-cover-letters/curriculum-vitae.php)  \nRESUME AND CV SUPPORT  \nFor Action Verbs to Include in your Resume  \n[http://www.fullerton.edu/career/students/resumes-cover-letters/action-verbs.php](http://www.fullerton.edu/career/students/resumes-cover-letters/action-verbs.php)  \nTo see sample resumes and CVs, click on the link  \n[http://www.fullerton.edu/career/students/resumes-cover-letters/sample-resumes.php](http://www.fullerton.edu/career/students/resumes-cover-letters/sample-resumes.php)  \n[The Job Interview-Five Difficult Questions to Expect](The Job Interview-Five Difficult Questions to Expect)**  \n1.
