A CV is a "Curriculum Vitae". Basically a Resume

[@shawnurch8755]

Job application form. Commonly referred to as a CV. Curriculum Vita, Latin for "course of life". I can see King boomer reading at like, resume a phone call, lol

[@jessicamcguire4728]

Oh good, my American brain auto-translated it correctly!

[@rabbittko1421]

CV is such a common saying around the world, just not america...

[@JizzyF83]

Don’t ever say Curriculum Vitae on the front page of your CV!

[@Songfugel]

​​@@shawnurch8755 No, that is incorrect. CV is resume which is different from an actual job application. You are often required to send your CV *with* your job application, but they are completely different things

CV : Curriculum Vitae I believe you would say "resume"

[@KIA130123]

Indeed.

[@flaggerify]

résumé, if we're being pedantic.

[@dun0790]

Haha if someone asked me for a resume id look confused and probably say im not a chief sorry dont have one

[@env0x]

i never knew what that meant either i always assumed it meant cover letter for a resume but didnt know why it was called cv

[@KIA130123]

@@env0x Curriculum Vitae (CV) is Latin for "course of life" and supposedly coined by Leonardo Da Vinici in 1482. Allegedly, Da Vinci, had written a list of his skills and experiences and sent them to the Duke of Milan. As he was offering his services in designing structures such as bridges, sculptures and boats. In contrast, résumé is French for "summary." But served the same purpose. For about 450 years a résumé was simply a description of a person, including abilities and past employment and it didn't take on the more professional look in terms of its presentation and content like we know them now until the 1970's. It was also somewhat bemusing to me that the US went with résumé over CV because one of the main differences between American English and British English is that Brits kept a lot of the spellings and pronunciations of words that were absorbed from other languages, mainly French and German. But, about 50 years after the US had gained independence Noah Webster the lexicographer published the American dictionary and it's theorised that he wanted American spellings to differ from British spellings as a way of showing independence and I'd guess that the French option of résumé seemed more straightforward than the pretentious sounding Latin word the Brits were using.

[@numberstation]

Aww, your nipper looks so baffled by the IT Crowd!😳

[@joeasher2876]

I always like the confused look on a babys face when people dance them like puppets (35:40 approx). They have no idea what's going on but as soon as they realize it's not a bad thing they have a look of acceptance.

My friend had an exercise addiction. Chose exercise over everything, birthdays, work. She even missed a funeral. Now at age 40 she has the bones of an 80 year old and a small heart. Which means circulation problems. Also she had to have both hips replaced at age 30. Queen B is right.

C.V stands for Curriculum Vitae basically what you would call a Resume

[@bradmcmahon3156]

Most people use CV and resume to be the same thing but actually are slightly different. You would use a resume as a relevant one or two page summary of your career in order to apply for a job but a CV is supposed to be a complete list of your work history and is it's more suited to academic or scientific field where they would want to know everything you published or presented at, research grants etc etc.

[@josienash1]

"I dunno what is a CV". CV is short for "curriculum vitae", and the simple explanation is. "resumé".. or more exactly: "curriculum" IS a word in English, but the original meaning is kind of a. "course".. (a bunch of information, something to be learned).. "Vitae".. can be translated with.. many things.. The word "vital" comes to mind, but technically it probably relates more to the actual nature of.. "being a live".. or.. "life". .so.. the.. actual lessons of life.. or more exactly.. YOUR "CV".. (curriculum vitae". is the story of your life.. and.. if we IGNORE the history of the word (also known as "etymology").. then.. it is about.. the things you know and how you know it.. so.. There is a formal document known as a "CV" (which IS intended to be short for Curriculum vitae").. which you are supposed to use to try to apply for a job. .and.. that document is supposed to represent what you do know and how you came to know it.. so.. what formal education did you go through, and what years?.. and.. what employments did you have?.. and when?.. and.. also.. do you have certificates? like drivers licences or other certificates that mean you have PROVEN you can use a fork-lift or whatever else.. so. "CV".. is about what "strengthens" your history as something that may or may not be relevant when it comes to the job you are applying for. Just asking for a friend.

[@rogerlundstrom6926]

[@BarelloSmith]

My native language isn't English but I am kind of baffled that you don't know what a CV is? It is the only term I know for it in English and it is also understood in other languages. It is short for Curriculum Vitae (lat.) and it is the record of your former employments and your education up until that point and you give it to a potential employer at a job interview. There has to be a term for it in the US as well!

26:34 - Nerdy trivia: the Zenith is the point in the sky directly above you. Much used to reference a point in the sky when looking at stars. a Quasar is a far far far away black-hole with a bunch of "stuff" orbiting extremely fast around it, and due to this makes a fairly regular and very loud "noise" in the radio spectrum. They're one of the most powerful things in the universe having mass of billion times our sun. With the noise "regularity", they kinda serve as beacons in the universe, since they each have a distinct but fairly regular noise coming from them. Crazy cool stuff.
