CURRICULUM VITAE

Curriculum vitae = C V = resume (USA) = brief personal history.

When a company needs to recruit new people, it can give an announcement in the «Need help» section of a newspaper.

People who are looking for a job can send a letter of application or covering letter (USA cover letter) and in some cases a curriculum vitae or c.v. (in the USA — resume) containing details of their education and experience. A company may ask candidates to fill up a standard application form (see below). The company’s Human Resources department selects the most suitable applications and prepares a short list of candidates or applicants, who are invited to attend an interview.

CVs are required for all except the most junior jobs, and are used as a basis for assessment and comparison of applicants for a job.

CVs provide information about an applicant, set out in a way that is easy to read. They should include: name; address and telephone number; date and place of birth; nationality; married or single (give the ages of any children); dates and places of education; examinations passed, especially if internationally recognized; knowledge of English and of other languages; previous employment and work experience; outside interests, hobbies, etc. CVs can vary slightly in the layout, but all give the same basic information. How to write a resume? What Is a Resume?

A resume is a one or two page summary of your skills, accomplishments, experiences, and education designed to capture a prospective educator’s or employer's interest. The purpose of a resume is to introduce yourself to a university, a job or any place where you apply. It is the primary tool of your education or job search and may take several drafts to prepare effectively.

Before you can write an effective resume, you must first be able to identify your skills and abilities as well as your special needs relating to the work environment, salary, geographic location, and people environment. This will help you to develop a career objective.

As you write your resume, keep in mind the following: 1. Use concise language; 2. Minimize or omit everything that is irrelevant; 3. Place the most important information at the beginning of your resume; 4. There must be no grammatical errors; 5. Let an experienced person read it; 6. Print your resume on good paper.
