I am working on getting my resume up to date and flushing it out a bit as I prepare to start a job search in a few months.

The group practice (I'm a clinical social worker) I am most interested in joining requests a CV....
I did some quick reading on the differences, but wondered if anyone had any particularly useful guides or suggestions for crafting an excellent CV.

For some reason I thought they were primarily used in academia, but thats what this job is looking for. Do I include references within the document (a site I found said to)?
Also, this practice doesn't request a cover letter- which freaks me out a bit....if you can't tell I'm better with the narrative than bullet points
