Dr Phil, winstun, et al (yes Dog, you're al - conjugate that one)....

Agreed in part; BUT:

I am an employer. If I ask for a Resume, that's what I want - one-two pages, addressing the position description. If I ask for a CV, that's what I want - 10-whatever pages; I WANT to see everything you have to offer. When I said my (current) CV is 30 pages, I meant it - and those who ask for it EXPECT to see everything in it.

The resume is the key to the door; the CV and interview is the passport to the position. Look at what is asked for and comply.

(Dog, I felt some of your stuff previous was a bit tetchy; but fair dinkum the 'Latin Lesson' cracked me up ......took me back to the (good?) old days of the (un)Christian Brothers College )
