Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a CV and a resume?
In the US, a resume is typically 1-2 pages focused on relevant experience. A CV (curriculum vitae) is more detailed and common in academia. In Europe and most of the world, CV and resume are used interchangeably. This tool generates a document suitable for both contexts, with region-specific formatting conventions.
Should I include a photo on my CV?
It depends on the region. In the US, UK, and Canada, photos are generally not included and may even lead to discrimination concerns. In continental Europe (Germany, France, Spain), photos are expected. In Japan, a photo is required on the standard rirekisho format. This tool automatically shows or hides the photo option based on your selected region.
What are CEFR language levels?
The Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) defines language proficiency in six levels: A1 and A2 (basic user), B1 and B2 (independent user), C1 and C2 (proficient user). "Native" is used for your mother tongue. CEFR levels are widely recognized in EU job applications and Europass CVs.
What is the Europass format?
Europass is a standardized CV format promoted by the European Commission. It includes personal details (photo, date of birth, nationality), structured sections for education and experience, language skills with CEFR levels, and digital competences. While not mandatory, it is widely recognized across EU member states and makes cross-border job applications easier.
