Curriculum Vitae vs. Resume
• A Resume is a one or two page summary of your skills,
experience and education. A Resume is brief and concise - no
more than a page or two, a curriculum vitae is a longer (at
least two pages) and more detailed synopsis.
• In Europe, the Middle East, Africa, or Asia, employers may
expect to receive a curriculum vitae.
• In the United States, It is also applicable when applying for
fellowships or grants.

Chronological Resume or CV
A chronological Resume or CV starts by listing your work history, with the most recent position listed first. Your jobs are listed in reverse chronological order with your current, or most recent job, first. Employers typically prefer this type of Resume or CV because it's easy to see what jobs you have held and when you have worked at them. This type of Resume or CV works well for job seekers with a strong, solid work history.

Functional Resume or CV
A functional Resume or CV focuses on your skills
and experience, rather than on your
chronological work history. It is used most often
by people who are changing careers or who have
gaps in their employment history.

Combination Resume or CV:
A combination Resume or CV lists your skills and
experience first. Your employment history is listed next.
With this type of Resume or CV you can highlight the
skills you have that are relevant to the job you are
applying for, and also provide the chronological work
history that employers prefer.

Resume or CV With Profile
A Resume or CV with a profile section includes
a summary of an applicant’s skills,
experiences and goals as they relate to a
specific job.

Targeted Resume or CV:
• A targeted Resume or CV is a Resume or CV that is customized so that it specifically highlights the experience and skills you have that are relevant to the job you are applying for. It definitely takes more work to write a targeted Resume or CV than to just click to apply with your existing Resume or CV. However, it's well worth the effort, especially when applying for jobs that are a perfect match for your qualifications and experience.

Mini Resume
A mini Resume contains a brief summary of
your career highlights qualifications. It can be
used for networking purposes or shared upon
request from a prospective employer or
reference writer who may want an overview of
your accomplishments, rather than a full length
Resume.

and other visuals.
