Expert Solution

Part 1:In the Indeed articles, Jennifer Herrity discuss that a resume is distinct from Curriculum Vitae (CV). Herrity (2022) defines a resume as a brief document that avails a summary of a person's education, skills, and work experience. She posits that a resume is tailored for specific job opportunity applications. Resumes are limited to one or two pages, and are commonly used in Canada and the United States. CV on the other hand, are comprehensive documents that encompass a detailed account for a person's academic background, relevant research experience, publications, and respective achievements they have made in the due course (Herrity, 2022).  CVS are applicable in academic, research fields, and international contexts. Unlike resumes, a CV is characterized by a number of pages and people do not tailor them for a specified job application.
