The Curriculum Vitae (CV) from the University of California Berkeley
Overview
Making It Easy for Your Overburdened Audience
Overview
“The Curriculum Vitae (loosely, Latin for “the course of one’s life/career”) is usually the first point of contact between you and your future colleagues. Its conventional purpose is to provide a concise overview of your academic background and accomplishments. More to the point, however, the role of the CV is to pique the interest of the reader, get her/him to take a closer look at you and your other application materials, and ultimately invite you for an interview.”

Tips on Creating an Academic Vita FROM The Social Psychology Network
“An academic vita is a summary of your professional training and background; it serves much the same purpose as a résumé in the business world. In other words, a vita is an autobiographical account that provides the information on which a preliminary decision is made whether to admit you to a program or hire you for a job. Largely on the basis of your vita — and the cover letter accompanying its submission — your application will be rejected outright, put into a doubtful category, or considered worth exploring. If the latter occurs, your vita has succeeded.”

FREE RESUME TEMPLATES: 279 professional resume samples in Word FROM HLoom
“Your resume represents you as a professional on a piece of paper – it is your first impression with your future boss. Interestingly, resume writing is not a skill that is generally taught in school so once you are ready to start looking for a job, you are left to fend for yourself. In this age of technology, most people search the internet. There is an overabundance of information available online, yet very little of it is helpful and if you decide to take matters into your own hands, it is difficult to figure out where to start.
Start by putting together the content: work experience, summary of qualifications, achievements, education, keywords and any other important information that makes a powerful resume.”

United States. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
http://www.eeoc.gov/eeoc/index.cfm
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) is responsible for enforcing federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee because of the person’s race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy), national origin, age (40 or older), disability or genetic information. It is also illegal to discriminate against a person because the person complained about discrimination, filed a charge of discrimination, or participated in an employment discrimination investigation or lawsuit.
Most employers with at least 15 employees are covered by EEOC laws (20 employees in age discrimination cases). Most labor unions and employment agencies are also covered.
The laws apply to all types of work situations, including hiring, firing, promotions, harassment, training, wages, and benefits.
