Answer 3

You make a resume when you want to get a job. A resume is supposed to supply the employer with your work history and accomplishments. It provides a comparison of your qualifications for the job as compared to other applicants.

Answer 4

without context it's hard to say precisely, but I'll answer as best I can.

un résumé means "a summary".

The verb "résumer" (the infinitive) means "to summarize".

The conjugation would be:

Je résume (I summarize)

Tu résumes (you summarize)

il/elle/on résume (he/she/one summarizes)

nous résumons (we summarize)

vous résumez (you summarize)

ils/elles résument (they summarize)

Note that the French word for "resume" (what you submit to potential employers) is un CV, not un résumé; also this is a false cognate (a "false friend"). It looks like the English word resume--as in to start again, but it does not mean that.

Answer 5

A Resume is a one to two page summary of your past job experience, skills and accomplishments. A Resume alone will not get you a job offer, but a successful Resume will get you an interview.
