A résumé, often known as a resume, is a document that contains information about you. A curriculum vitae (CV) is a document written and utilized by a person to present their background, abilities, and accomplishments outside of North America. Résumés can be used for a variety of reasons, but the most common one is to find new work. 
A standard résumé includes a "summary" of relevant work and educational experience. The résumé, along with a cover letter and sometimes an application for employment, is usually one of the first things a potential employer sees about a job seeker and is used to assess applications, often followed by an interview.
