A cv (as it's known) is the European equivalent of a resume; so where
Americans use resume Europeans use a cv. It's the same thing.

Although they are mostly equivalent, there are some subtle differences
between the two. See

That's completely wrong.

A cv lists everything you've ever done relevant to your academic
advancement -- your education, the positions you've held, the honors
and awards you've received, and all your publications.

A resume is a single side of a single page that you hand to the
personnel office (aka Human Resources) hoping to con them into hiring
you.

That webpage is accurate. What it describes is hardly "subtle
differences."
