A CV is a marketing tool to convince others that you merit a scholarship, a grant, a job. But it doesn't show what didn't work, nor help one reflect on why. If you accept that failure is an often-necessary prerequisite to success, then a "CV of failures" can be an important tool for honest and constructive self-critique.

Un CV est un outil de marketing pour convaincre les autres que vous méritez une bourse, une subvention, un emploi. Mais il ne montre pas ce qui n'a pas fonctionné et n'aide pas à réfléchir aux raisons de cet échec. Si vous admettez que l'échec est une condition souvent nécessaire à la réussite, alors un "CV d'échecs" peut être un outil important pour une autocritique honnête et constructive.
