Questions people ask

Is a CV the same as a resume?

In most of the world, yes. "CV" is used in the UK, Ireland, India, Africa, Australia and much of Europe and Asia for the same one-to-two page document North Americans call a resume. In the US and Canada a CV usually means a longer academic record.

Can I copy these examples?

Use them for structure and ideas. The people, employers and numbers are fictional, so replace everything with your own true details. Employers can tell when a resume is copied, and honesty matters in interviews.

How long should my resume be?

One page for early-career and most everyday jobs, up to two pages for experienced professionals. Put the most relevant information on the first half of page one.
