3) Number of characters.

Answer 2

A RESUME and a CV are two different things. A CV literally means, ”course of life”- i.e. a short & crisp summary of the qualification & experience, while a RESUME is a more comprehensive document of the life.

Resume and Bio-Data is more often similar.  

Answer 3

all are same....resume is a french word...curriculum vitae is a technical word....these two are same...as it is related to career...

bio data is bit different...if includes all other information also like body stats and other things...more like a match making profile...

Answer 4

Here is a great summary I found about the diff between a CV and a resume. As far as I know "bio data" is a South Asian word for a resume:

"The terms "resume" and "CV" have very similar meanings and are sometimes used interchangeably. In the United States, a "resume" is a document that is often not much longer than one page. Each time a person applies for a job, his or her resume should be tailored in order to reflect skills and experience that will be of particular use in that position. For example, if a person were to simultaneously apply for a jobs as a biology teacher and a biking tour guide, he or she would likely highlight different professional and academic qualifications in each resume.

A CV is longer than a resume and includes a complete listing of a person's professional history. A CV should include, every position that a person has ever held, a comprehensive list of academic credentials, as well as information on publications and other significant achievements. In some cases, CVs are many pages long. In general, CVs are required when applying for positions in the medical and academic field. Resumes, on the other hand, are preferred when applying for business positions.

The terms "resume" and "CV" are used in different ways all over the world. In the United States and in the English-speaking areas of Canada, the word "resume" is used predominantly. Furthermore, these regions have begun to accept longer "resumes" that reflect CVs.

Therefore, in these regions, the term "CV" is not particularly necessary. The term "CV" is used more often in Ireland, England, Scotland, New Zealand, and French Canada. In India and Australia, however, the terms are generally interchangeable.

When applying for a job, it is most important to put your best foot forward. Whether your prospective employer uses the term "resume" or "CV", make sure that you know what he or she is looking for in the document. Once you have this information, you can work on creating a knock-out resume or CV that will help you land your job."
