The Curriculum Vitae or CV, similar to a resume, is supplied by job applicants detailing their expertise, experience, skills and other relevant information to be assessed by the recruitment team. The CV is typically longer than a resume and includes educational history, significant career achievements, and any other pertinent information for the position. This is often used in more professional, white collar industries.

Candidates are encouraged to make their curriculum vitae stand out by clearly outlining their skills, experiences and qualifications; some seek for a professional reviewers  recruitment specialist who review their CVs and provide advice on how to improve it.
