商务英语口语对话:简历

A: Let's review the CVs we received last week for our vacancy in the financial department. What have you got?

B: Take a look at this one... Experience, three years in accounting for a large marketing firm, before that she worked entry level in banking management. Looks pretty impressive. What do you think?


A: Her education background is also quite outstanding. She graduated with her Bachelor's degree from Harvard in Finance, later got a master's degree from Stanford. Looking just at that, I'd say she's qualified.

B: Maybe a little overqualified... She might have higher salary expectations. Also, she hasn't listed any personal information. We don't know her marital status, whether or not she has children. Why, she didn't even put her birth date on the CV! No picture either...

A: Oh, didn't you know? She's an American. Generally Americans will not put those types of personal statistics on their CVs. That's the difference between a CV and a resume.

B: Why don't they put those vital statistics on their resumes?

A: Because America has many laws to ensure equality and prevent discrimination, Americans are not required or even expected to put information of such a personal nature on their resumes. The purpose is to prevent discrimination in hiring based on age, gender, or marital status.

B: Oh, I didn't know that.

A: An American employer would never even ask for a photo on a resume.
