英文簡歷寫作基本要求與技巧
簡歷是對你所掌握的技能和取得的成就的總結(jié)，必須簡潔，最多不超過兩頁。你可以任意選擇最適合自己的簡歷模板，以吸引你的潛在雇主，并揚(yáng)長避短。在某種程度上說，哪一種簡歷更適合自己取決于自身的職業(yè)發(fā)展情況。如果你是一名剛畢業(yè)的大學(xué)生，標(biāo)準(zhǔn)簡歷(也稱為基于個(gè)人能力的簡歷)更為合適。對于成熟的求職者，基于技能的簡歷更合適，因?yàn)樗苡行У孛枋鰝�(gè)人經(jīng)歷。同時(shí)它也適用于那些尋找與自己所學(xué)專業(yè)和之前工作經(jīng)歷無關(guān)的工作的求職者。而英文簡歷更需要我們用心撰寫。
英文簡歷基本要求
1. Select the best format.
1. 選擇最佳格式
While most resumes are written in a history chronological format, often a better technique is to evenly balance between skill-set description, achievements, and employment.
多數(shù)簡歷是按照時(shí)間順序?qū)懙�，可是通常更好地做法是掌握�?ldquo;技能描述”、“業(yè)績”和“工作情況”之間的平衡。
2. Make certain your document is error free.
2. 確保簡歷文字準(zhǔn)確無誤
Since you are familiar with your own writing, you will "see" what you were thinking and not what is actually on the page. Do not rely on yourself to proofread your work and do not rely on spell-check. Find a friend who has strong grammar skills to check your work.
因?yàn)槿藗兪煜ぷ约旱奈淖�，所�?ldquo;看到的”是自己所想的，而不是實(shí)際寫在紙上的。不要自己來檢查，不要靠拼寫工具檢查。請一位語法很強(qiáng)的朋友來檢查你制作好的簡歷。
3. Find a balance between wordiness and lack of detail.
3. “簡”和“繁”的平衡
Employers need to see details about your work history and experience, but they don't need to know everything. The fact that you were den leader in your Cub Scout troop is irrelevant. Keep information germane to the goal of attaining an interview. Eliminate information that is not related and will not have a direct impact on winning the interview.
雇主們需要了解你的工作背景、經(jīng)驗(yàn)，可并不需要了解一切。你在童子軍做教練員就是無關(guān)的信息。要讓簡歷內(nèi)容和能幫你爭取到面試機(jī)會。刪掉無關(guān)的、對贏得面試不會有直接影響的信息。
4. Do not use personal pronouns.
4. 不要用人稱代詞
"I," "me," "my," "mine," and "our" should not be on a resume. Resumes are written in first person (implied). Example: For your prior job description, instead of writing: "I hired, trained and supervised a team of assistant managers and sales associates" you would instead state that you "Hired, trained and supervised a team of assistant managers and sales associates." Fragment sentences are perfectly acceptable on a resume and actually preferred.
“我”，“我的”，“我們的”不應(yīng)該出現(xiàn)在簡歷中。簡歷都是以(隱藏的)第一人稱來書寫的。例如：描述上一份工作時(shí)，不要寫成“我曾參與招聘、培訓(xùn)、管理經(jīng)理助理及銷售助手”，而是“招聘、培訓(xùn)、管理經(jīng)理助手及銷售助手”。簡歷上出現(xiàn)“片段句”完全可以，而且在實(shí)際中會更受青睞。
5. Use numerical symbols for numbers.
5. 以阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字代替文字
While we are taught in school to spell out numbers less than ten, in resume writing, numerical symbols serve as "eye stops" and are a much better method. Instead of writing "Developed a dynamic team of eight consultants." it would be much more advantageous to state "Developed a dynamic team of 8 consultants."
雖然上學(xué)時(shí)老師教我們“十”以下的數(shù)字都要大寫，阿拉伯?dāng)?shù)字卻可以吸引人們的目光、是更好的數(shù)字表示方法。不要寫成“建設(shè)了一只包括八名顧問，充滿活力的團(tuán)隊(duì)”，寫成“建設(shè)了一只包括8名顧問，充滿活力的團(tuán)隊(duì)”會更能獲得優(yōu)勢。
6. Think "accomplishments" rather than "job duties.
6. "注重“業(yè)績”而不是“職責(zé)”
What makes you stand out from the crowd? How did you come up with a way to do things better, more efficiently, or for less cost? What won honors for you? Information such as this is vital, will grab attention, and put your resume at the top of the list.
讓你出眾的是什么?怎樣才能把事情做地更好、更有效率，成本更小?你因?yàn)槭裁蹿A得過榮譽(yù)?這些是很重要的信息，會吸引目光，會讓你的簡歷獲得優(yōu)先考慮。
7. Keep it positive.
7. 傳遞積極態(tài)度
Reasons for leaving a job and setbacks do not have a place on a resume. Employers are seeking people who can contribute and have successfully performed in the past. Concentrate on communicating these issues and avoid any detracting information.
離職的原因和過去的挫折都不該出現(xiàn)在簡歷上。雇主們要找的是過去表現(xiàn)成功、能做出貢獻(xiàn)的人。集中精力傳遞這些信息、回避任何轉(zhuǎn)移注意力的信息。
Remember, many first-time job interviews are conducted via telephone rather than in person. Make sure you are prepared for that telephone call when it arrives. And make sure you have a resume that will make the phone ring!
別忘了，有很多初試是通過電話來進(jìn)行的，而不是當(dāng)面。在電話來的時(shí)候要做好準(zhǔn)備。還有，一定讓自己擁有一份能讓那個(gè)電話鈴聲響起的簡歷!
英文簡歷五大技巧
1.絕無拼寫錯誤�，F(xiàn)在文字處理軟件都有拼寫檢查(SpellingCheck)，您實(shí)在沒有理由拼錯，否則雇主會覺得您連最基本的東西都不去做。因此這是完全不能容許的錯誤。
2.小心相近字。這是拼寫檢查查不出的錯誤，要尤為小心。例如，有一位專業(yè)是經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)的同志，他本應(yīng)寫Major：Economics(專業(yè)：經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué))，但卻誤寫成了Mayor：Economy，搖身一變，成了主管經(jīng)濟(jì)的市長。
3.避免明顯的語法錯誤。這并不是說一點(diǎn)兒語法錯誤都沒有，因?yàn)橛⒄Z畢竟不是母語，稍微有一點(diǎn)小錯，別人也是能夠諒解的。
4.請友人幫忙看一下。這是非常有效的一個(gè)方法，一是從拼寫、語法、句式等方面來看，有無錯誤;二是從構(gòu)思的角度上來看，有沒有更合適、更恰當(dāng)?shù)谋磉_(dá)。旁觀者清，換一個(gè)角度，別人經(jīng)常能提出一些特別好的建議來。
5.Objective寫不寫?有人寫，有人不寫。其實(shí)寫和不寫各有利弊。如果寫上，當(dāng)然顯得目標(biāo)明確，非這個(gè)行業(yè)、這個(gè)部門不可，但同時(shí)也就限制了您在別的行業(yè)發(fā)展的可能性。比如，畢業(yè)生在申請像“誠迅”一類的公司時(shí)明確寫上了所選部門，那么萬一這個(gè)部門沒有錄用您，而您又好像非這個(gè)部門不可，您就很可能失去了在“誠迅”其他部門工作的機(jī)會。但如果您什么都不寫，雇主參照您的背景和一些測試的結(jié)果也許認(rèn)為您更適合別的部門，這樣您就可能獲得新的機(jī)會。通常美式簡歷的規(guī)范寫法都是不寫Objective的。
