I've noticed a lot of UK job applications use the American MM/DD/YYYY date format and some also say "resume" instead of CV. Does that annoy you if you're British? - eviltoast

It annoys me even though I’m still in the U.S.

Edit: For everyone saying CVs and resumes are different, that might be literally the case, but that is not how job applications are using them. I just went to this one:

    Some people say that a resume is a shorter CV. But even a CV should only include the things relevant to the task you’re using for.

      Not traditionally. A CV should contain essentially everything whereas the resume is tailored to the specific position.

      CVs are much more common for academic positions but I’ve also seen them required for very specialized roles.
