For somebody who has only graduated from high school, probably not.
For somebody with a college degree probably.
For somebody with a doctorate, or working on a doctorate, mandatory.
Constructing a good CV is an art.
Amongst other things it contains;
* List of conferences attended;
* List of papers written;
* List of books written;
* Projects that have been worked on;
* List of presentations that have been given;
* List of honours and awards received;
* List of grants received;
* etc;
Ideally, each of these is in a database. When a CV is needed, the user
merely selects the core keywords, and everything is written to a
document, for manually editing, prior to printing up. (And yes, CVs
need to be tailormade for the specif function. The CV that is given to
the court, because one is an expert witness, is different from the CV
given to the professional society, where one is presenting
revolutionary research in the field, and both of those are different
from the one that accompanies your manuscript for publication in the
leading journal of the field.)

Say making life easier, but mandatory ...? If somebody is reaching this
level, normally can handle much bigger amounts of data without wizards
for dummies ... but well, maybe I am wrong :)
