a CV might also include your date of birth, sex and marriage status-- all of which it is illegal to ask someone in US. I have seen CV's with photo's attached, and ones that mention the persons religon.. again-- No-no's in US.

Really? I had a friend who was applying for a job in Florida (at a cancer centre), and they wanted all that info, picture and everything. We were shocked because you're totally not allowed to ask for that here. [confused-e]
