Right, but in the UK, for example, we don't do resumes, only CVs.

Does it honestly seem likely to you that that's what I'm saying?

No.

I'm saying people in the UK don't write resumes. They write CVs. Whether they're an academic or not. And they're generally a couple of pages at the very least.

I get that's different to how it is where you are - but it's normal for things to be different in different places around the world.


yes. They don’t have a resume at all in fact.
