CURRICULUM VITAE

A Curriculum Vita (C.V) is a written document of your education and the jobs you have done that you send them when you are applying for a job.

In other words, A Curriculum vitae (C.V) is a summary of somebody’s educational and work experience, for the information of possible future employers.

It may also be defined as a brief account of a person’s education, qualification, and previous occupations, typically sent with a job application.

Your personal information should keep changing in order to suit with each new job application. The Americans call as CV ‘resume” while the British calls it Curriculum vitae (CV).

NB:

When writing education background and work experience we normally start with the most recent one to the previous.
