Five-year-old boy's 15-page CV grabs China online attention

I read CVs all the time. 15 pages is far too long, he needs to condense it down to 2 pages max, and get a github account demonstrating his achievements. :)

I make sure mine is 1 page long, despite 25 years of international businesses, managing greenfield ops, R&D sites etc for huge companies and whatnot.

I find it hard to belive that one needs to have more than one page, no matter the civilization changing things they did.

Is a CV not supposed to be the long form, while a resume would be two pages max?

Yes, but I’m under the impression that CVs are a few pages and more common for academics with long publishing and speaking histories.

I’ve never seen a CV in the business world, but resumes are of course very common.
