Just wanted share what I learned in the morning:
I thought a CV is a cover letter, just found out that a CV is comparable to a resume, but more elaborate.
CV stands for curriculum vitae, it provides a person's experiences and qualifications.
In the United Kingdom, a CV is short, 2 pages max. It includes personal and professional information.
In the United States and Canada, a CV is used as a replacement of a resume in the academic circles and the medical field.
