Depending on what country you’re in, it’s either a resumé, or a supplement to a resumé that summarizes academic achievements for an applicant with a graduate degree.
Curriculum vitae. It’s basically a long résumé. The résumé gets your foot in the door with the “best of” highlights that are tailored to the specific job. The the CV is what you bring to the interview; It’s longer and has a more complete work history, instead of just the bits that are relevant to the job you applied for.
So when they ask you “can you explain this gap in your employment for these two years” you can go “yeah, if you look at my CV, you’ll see that I was working/freelance in a tangental industry. But it wasn’t very pertinent to this application, so I left it off of my résumé when I applied.”
And for tailoring your résumé to each job, you just copy/paste the relevant info from your CV to make a one page document.
I don’t think this is correct. Assuming you’re American then a CV is the same as what you’d call a résumé. Unless a résumé is more like a cover letter (as in the intro paragraph where you summarise what you do and why you want the job)?

It’s what Brits (and maybe others) often call a resume. It’s also sometimes slightly longer. than a resume (2+ pages instead of 1).
A 2CV was an awesome Citroên car.
