I think the War of Independence was fought in part so that we didn't have to talk and spell funny over here.

I think it is more related to the intended audience. CV seems targeted more towards an academic field, and a resume seems more...commercial.
or not...

My husband has a CV. For him, it's not that you are out looking for a job per se, it's that his credentials need to be available for potential clients to see.
A resume is for when you are going to approch a potential employer and ask them "Is this enough for you to hire me?" A CV is for when you want the person to come to you and say "you have all of the qualifications we need for this situation. Can we hire you?" He's an expert witness, so clients come to him instead of the other way around. |

Vitae = "vye-tay". Should drive any Latin scholar bat-tay.
And aluminum has but one I. School and Schedule each have a 'k', like the Skook'll river. And English didn't evolve. Like the Borg, it assimilated, often by force. |

Wolf;
He's not exactly a CSI guy - that's a crime scene tech, which is different. He's a generalist, so for the most part he reviews cases and reconstructs the crime, then identifies what areas or items need further review by specialists. Basically he's the cleanup guy. He gets called in when a case is so messed up or out of control that they need someone to come in and tell them which way to go. He does the same thing at home...... it's a bit annoying at times! xoBruce; He can live anywhere he wants! ![]() There is an advantage to living on a remote island when you are working on unsolved cases involving violent crime. When he was living in California he had a hard time sleeping! We certainly have some interesting dinner conversations at our house |
