CV/Resume
CV/Resume
Hey everyone, another question from a first timer. When schools ask for a CV/Resume what exactly are they asking for? I have a long form CV (pretty much anything of merit I have ever done in my life) that I created for when I apply for summer adjunct university jobs that is about 5 pages long. I also have a 1 page resume for regular job interviews. Which one of these forms are HR departments looking for? Should I send both or keep it to just one? I have the 1 page resume on all my major recruiting website accounts but also attach my long from CV in the "Other Documents" section for good measure.

Re: CV/Resume
NeoEagle - a CV is a double sided document that should have your info/skills/employment/references on it. If it is too shallow, it won't attract attention. If it is too long, they stop reading. Strike a balance, young Jedi.

Thank you PsyGuy! After several interviews they did not request anything more than my one pager, and offered me the teaching position! Now the planning begins!

Re: CV/Resume
My resume is two sides and is much like the above, however I generally put references on a separate sheet.
