It annoys me even though I’m still in the U.S.

Edit: For everyone saying CVs and resumes are different, that might be literally the case, but that is not how job applications are using them. I just went to this one:

    How do you explain that in Europe pretty much all countries only use the word CV then for any job?

      By saying that I didn’t realize it was different in Europe. Often when we (Canada) do something different than the US, it’s because it’s closer to how it’s done in Europe and I assumed this was one of those cases.

      I’m planning on looking into this more when I have some free time as I’d like to understand where our approach to both documents came from.
