Is a CV different from a resume?

The CV presents a full history of your academic credentials, so the length of the document is variable. In contrast, a resume presents a concise picture of your skills and qualifications for a specific position, so length tends to be shorter and dictated by years of experience (generally 1-2 pages).

Should you put college courses on resume?

Relevant coursework is an optional entry-level resume section that includes coursework you’ve completed related to the job you’re applying to. If you are a student or have just graduated, relevant coursework is a good way to demonstrate your expertise even if you don’t yet have professional experience.

What to say in an interview after being laid off?

In fact, not only shouldn’t you avoid the topic, you should be the one to bring it up. Use numbers to your advantage. Keep it simple. Explain what you’ve learned in your time off.
