JobAuthor.com Curriculum Vitae

"I guess with so many people
out of work right now, the
hiring managers are being
literally deluged with
applicants. One woman in
Seattle told me last week
that she's getting 75 new
resumes per day - for an
assistant restaurant
manager/part time server
job!! They just don't have
time to read, and read, and
read a traditional, exhaustive
list of qualifications and
achievements anymore.
You've got to figure out a
way to make yours stand out,
and your re-do of my resume,
cover letter and list of
references is doing just that!
I'm getting much more traffic
now, and when I talk with
employers, they seem really
interested in me.
Thanks, Job Author!!"
Matt, Marina, CA

"I was unemployed when
Job Author re-formatted and
cleaned-up my resume. All of
a sudden, I started getting
email responses and phone
interviews almost
immediately after responding
to a job posting, after over 3
months of nothing!"
Paul, Santa Rosa, CA

"I was unemployed for quite
a long time and I was
starting to get a bit
depressed and confused
about it all. I have great
experience, accomplishments,
stellar references - I couldn't
figure out what the problem
was. Then Job Author took a
look at the resume I was
sending out and they said
that that was the problem.
They were right - looks like I'll
be getting a job offer later
this week."

CURRICULUM VITAE

The term "curriculum vitae" comes from the Latin Curriculum (course) and Vitae (life): The course of one's
life.

A Curriculum Vitae (CV) resembles a resume in many ways, yet differs in that its primary focus is on
Scientific, Medical or Academic backgrounds. A CV would be necessary if you have:
* an advanced degree (typically doctoral level)
* research accomplishments or scholastic activities
* publications, dissertations, or manuscripts under review
* fellowships, internships, or residencies

A CV can also include more in depth personal information such as; date of birth, nationality and social
interests. Generally, a CV is used for abroad job searches but a CV may be necessary for teaching or
research opportunities, applying for fellowships or for further academic training in the U.S.

Some research positions in the industry may also prefer a CV rather than a resume
