高效的英文简历实例评述

一份出色的英文简历,是向外企求职的关键之一。不了解有关的常识和程式,不花费相当的心思来展示,光有纯正娴熟的英文功底,并不能获得单位的青睐。在一大堆错误百出、英文表达能力低劣或平庸,毫无针对性和创造性的Resume中,你的那份若能让人眼睛一亮,成功的机会必将大大增加,下面结合一个具体的例子给出说明和评述。
　　Balance Sheet基本方法
　　选择要应聘的工作后,必须看清招聘广告上所列出的每项要求,再将自己的学历、能力与兴趣逐一与之比较,作一张balance sheet.
　　例如,一则关于marketing management trainee和job requirement是这样写的:
　　We are looking for a competent person to fill the captioned position:
　　-University graduate major in Marketing Management. Prepared to develop career in the commercial field
　　-Outgoing personality
　　-Able to communicate at different levels
　　-Good knowledge of PC operations
　　-Proficiency in written and spoken English/Mandarin
　　那么你相应地考虑自己的qualification的选择和表述,就可以这样写(与上列各项对应):
　　-University graduate with major in Marketing
　　-Having actively participated in Business clubs activities and learned accounting and management
　　-Good in communication with people and like a lot of out door activities, know how to tackle with people from all walks of life
　　-Skillful in operating Words, Excel, Lotus1-2-3, etc
　　-Fluent in English and Mandarin
　　这个方法的好处是可让求职者清楚了解该职位是否适合自己,而本身资料又是否切合要求,而且,明白了各项要求后,就可依据每一点在履历表上重点提出自己在该方面的强项。突出卖点(selling point),将之放在最吸引人的地方,使招聘者一眼可见,有利于present自己。
　　Work experience工作经验的陈述
　　工作经验是resume中令招聘者相当感兴趣的一项内容,善加措词是不可忽视的要务。
　　刚毕业,何来工作经验?其实,读书时的兼职、实习、实践,以至所曾参加的一些课外活动-协助出版学校刊物、举办活动,展览、宣传……都可算是工作经验、不过,表达起来要有针对性地展开,列出那些与所找工作有关的项目重点介绍,必要时更可使用summary的方式,以给招聘者深入的了解。
　　下面的写法显得相当简陋呆板:
　　1996/7-1996/8 General Clerk, IBM
　　1995/7-1995/8 Account clerks, Manley Toy Trading
　　1994/6-1994/8Salesgirl, Esprit.
　　倘能换一种表述如:
　　Three years of job experience in different positions have offered me opportunities to understand different job aspects.
　　-As a General Clerk (IBM),Accounts clerk (Manley Toy Trading), I have learned how to prepare purchasing orders,place orders, handle accounting matter, check voucher,… also (Salesgirl, Esprit) developing the technique of selling, serving and stocking.
　　就能更好地突出个人工作经验,吸引招聘者的注意力!
