Home FAQ Can I send a resume instead of a CV?

Can I send a resume instead of a CV?

Yes, you can send a resume instead of a CV. However, if you’re in the US and applying for a job in academia or a graduate program, you should send a CV.

For international job applications, you can send either a CV or resume, as they are two names for essentially the same document.
