A LOT of poor information being posted here. Anyone reading some of this drivel would be well advised to seek some good books on job application. Need to do your research as 95% of the books for sale on this subject are garbage. Firstly, a 'CV' is a big tug, baggage from the British empire. A Resume should be ONLY 1 page on a plain white or cream quality paper. There are several different formats depending on what you want to highlight, hide, etc. Accompany it with a cover letter explaining who you are, what job you want and what you can do for them. Then follow up by phone/in person. So that is 2 pages total. The Resume is just a means to an end, an interview. This information is provided to yous all by someone who has made it to the top in several areas.
