I agree on the hyphens, but I disagree strongly with your suggestion that mycv.com won't get a bonus for relevance to the term cv. I've seen plenty of sites with inferior link profiles (to the sites below them in the search results) rank because of domains with a couple of relevant keywords along with a generic one. It's nowhere near an exact match, but it's still worth something. Let's use the term "entry level jobs" for an example. http://www.entryleveljobsite.com http://www.entryleveljobsite.com ranks #9 right now, yet it's link profile is far inferior to my site http://www.onedayonejob.com http://www.onedayonejob.com which ranks at #16. Yes, there are probably some other factors included, but my feeling is that the domain name has a lot to do with it. If you look at the SERPs, you'll see that the entryleveljobs in entrylevejobsite.com is bolded. That right there tells me that Google sees the keywords in the URL. Btw, I'm using SEOmoz's Open Site Explorer to compare link profiles. Additionally, many of the links that you build will have CV in the anchor text because of your domain name. That's huge. A domain like mycv.com would be great if you're trying to rank for CV. CV.com would be better, but that's unrealistic. However, I'd push you to use Google's AdWords Keyword Tool to do some more research on what keywords you want to use in the domain name.
