It annoys me even though I’m still in the U.S.

Edit: For everyone saying CVs and resumes are different, that might be literally the case, but that is not how job applications are using them. I just went to this one:

      Some people say that a resume is a shorter CV. But even a CV should only include the things relevant to the task you’re using for.

        Not traditionally. A CV should contain essentially everything whereas the resume is tailored to the specific position.

        CVs are much more common for academic positions but I’ve also seen them required for very specialized roles.

          How do you explain that in Europe pretty much all countries only use the word CV then for any job?
