ElPussyKangaroo@lemmy.worldtoNo Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•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?

I was under the impression that a CV and a resume are different things. A CV is a general compilation of all things you’ve done, and a resume is a curated list used for applying to jobs.
I do know that they’re used interchangeably for the most part, but this is how I was explained the difference in practice.
Oh. Okay. So just different words? Like sidewalk & footpath?
