FAQ

Employees focus heavily on the screening phase to root-out unsuitable applications. Most job applications that employers receive are unqualified for the role. As much as 85% of applications won’t meet the criteria set out in the job application. Recruiters and employers often use ATS (applicant tracking system) software to screen applicants, and the recruiter may only spend 6-10 seconds reading a CV on the second pass.

The primary difference between a CV (curriculum vitae) and a resume is the length. Resumes are a short summary of your skills and experience and are 1-2 pages long. Resumes are more commonly used in the USA and Canada. CV’s tend to be more detailed can stretch for multiple pages and have been traditionally the first choice in the UK, New Zealand, Australia, and other Commonwealth countries.
However, recent trends in the recruitment industry are for concise documents being, largely due to the huge volumes of applications employers have to screen. In practice, everyone uses resumes. The resume/CV preference is really just a difference in terminology now. 

The style will depend on what you select during the checkout process and/or what your CV writer has recommended for your experience and industry. You can see a range of different styles here.
