What is the difference between a Biodata, CV and Resume?

Different formats are used in different job proposals, and knowing about all the formats is good.

Biodata:

Bio-data stands for Biographical data and is an archaic term for Resume or C.V. In a bio data, the focus is on personal particulars like date of birth, gender, religion, race, nationality, residence, marital status, and the like. A chronological listing of education and experience comes after that.

Unlike other formats, a biodata does not have much in terms of formatting and in most cases the format is provided by the institution. This makes it easy to collect data in very sequential manner but this format does not do much in the case of explaining the skills as it is not tailored according to the need of the company although it does prove ample amount of information about one’s skills and talents.

A biodata can range from about 1 page to 3 page depending on the quantity of information required by the institute.

C.V. (CURRICULUM VITAE):

Curriculum Vitae is a Latin word meaning “course of life”. It is more detailed than a resume, generally 2 to 3 pages, or even longer as per the requirement. This format is used when we want to describe our life’s activity in detail format. It covers general talent rather than specific skills for any specific positions.

A CV is generally used by college freshers or recent graduate seeking for the job. It can also be used by someone who is seeking a job change or someone who has not been in the industry for a long period of time. Although it is sort of a biography, there are certain rules to be followed to make sure that your CV is consistent with the general convention and trends used for writing the CV.

Resume:

Resume is a French word meaning “summary”. A resume is an outline or summary of one’s education, skills and employment. It does not list down all details of a profile, but showcases specific skills customized to the target job. It is thus usually 1 or at the max 2 pages long, written in the third person to give it an objective and formal tone.

Your resume must contain information in a condensed manner. Here you are required to provide only those skills and experiences that are relevant and essential for the job you have applied. You do not need to fill up everything that you may have in your arsenal of talent.

A good resume would start with a brief Profile of the candidate, Summary of Qualifications, followed by Industry Expertise and Professional Experience in reverse chronological order. Focus is on the most recent experiences, followed by responsibilities and accomplishments. Previous experiences are only presented as a summary. This would be followed by Education details and/or Professional Affiliations and/or Voluntary Initiatives.

What is the smallest possible Distance in The Universe?

In physics, the Planck length, denoted ℓP, is a unit of length that is the distance light travels in one unit of Planck time. It is also the reduced Compton wavelength of a particle with Planck mass. It is equal to 5.72938×10⁻³⁵ m (Lorentz–Heaviside version) or 1.61623×10⁻³⁵ m (Gaussian version). It is a base unit in the system of Planck units, developed by physicist Max Planck. The Planck length can be defined from three fundamental physical constants: the speed of light in a vacuum, the Planck constant, and the gravitational constant. It is the smallest distance about which current, experimentally corroborated, models of physics can make meaningful statements. At such small distances, the conventional laws of macro-physics no longer apply, and even relativistic physics requires special treatment. The smallest possible size for anything in the universe is the Planck Length, which is 1.6 x10 -35 m across. It is impossible to determine the difference between two locations less than one ...

How do Ants sense Food?

S ugar has a slight odor, particularly granulated beet sugar. While all species of ants can differentiate between a wide variety of odors, the smelling range differs from a few centimeters to meters. Desert ants can smell sugar from up to 3 meters. the food sources that ants cannot smell from a distance they 'smell' it (contact chemoreception) by touching it. So in a way, all the food they detect, they detect it by smelling. So yes, ants smell (although contact chemoreception is more like taste) the sugar. The ant colonies send scout ants to search for food in various directions, often up to a range of 100 to 200 meters.(Depends on the territorial boundary and time of the year). The scout marches steadily in less circuitous paths initially if it has memories of previous feeder locations. (Ants use visual landmarks, and a stereo-smell system to create an odor map and navigate) Periodically it will halt and look for olfactory cues. It will then take into a more circuitous rando...
