Sorry, what is CV ???
Where do you got that from ???
CV is like a “resume”, it means “curriculum Vitae”.
A curriculum vitae (English: /kəˈrɪkjʊləm ˈviːtaɪ, -ˈwiːtaɪ, -ˈvaɪtiː/)[1][2] (often shortened CV or vita) is a written overview of a person's experience and other qualifications for a job opportunity.
Ask about Otto Warmbier.
