Résumé /re-zhu-mei/ is the old form of what is now commonly used 'Resumé'.
Notice there is an accent mark on the final 'e'. This is such because it means that the final 'e' /re-zhu-mei/ is to be pronounced as in café, cliché, etc.

Resume can also be used to mean Resumé, but I suggest that using the one with the accent is better so as to avoid any confusion with regard to the verb, Resume (final 'e' is not pronounced; /ri-zu:m/), which means to begin to do.

Hope this helps!! Cheers! :inlove:
