一份出色的Resume,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!
    Job objective 事业目标
    通常,一般求职者只会在履历表开端简单地写上所应征的职位-Position Applied: Management Trainee或I am applying for... 其实,若懂得利用这小小空间写出自己的事业目标(job objective),更能显示出你对该工作的热诚及憧憬,能令招聘者对你加倍留意。
    比如这个不错的例子:
    Job objective
    To begin as a Marketing Management Trainee, with opportunity to advance to executive level and contribute to the development of firm.
    其实,这位外企人士所谈的关于准备英文简历的技巧,也完全可以应用到中文简历上来。各位读者可以尝试一下。
