優秀英文簡歷寫作指導

    一份出色的Resume,是向外企求職的關鍵之一。不瞭解有關的常識和程式,不花費相當的心思來展示,以有純正嫻熟的英文功底,決不能獲得單位的青睞。在一大堆錯誤百出、英文表達能力低劣或平庸,毫無針對性和創造性的Resume中,你的那份若能讓人眼睛一亮,成功的機會必將大大增加,以下我試著結合一個具體的例子給出說明和評述。

Balance Sheet:

基本方法選取適當的工作後,必須看清招聘廣告上所列出的每項要求,再將自己的學歷、能力與興趣逐一與之比較,作一張balance sheet.

例如,一則關於marketing management trainee和job requirement是這樣寫的:

We are looking for a competent person to fill the captioned position:

University graduate majors in Marketing Management. Prepared to develop career in the commercial field

-outgoing personality

-Able to communicate with different levels

-Good knowledge in PC operations

-Proficiency in written and spoken English/Mandarin

則你相應地考慮自己的qualification的選擇和表述,如你可寫(與上列各項對應):

-University graduate with major in Marketing

-Having actively participated in Business club"s 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 studied advanced level of Mandarin <一份resume中令招聘者相當感興趣的一項內容,善加措詞是必不可忽視的要務。

剛畢業,何來工作經驗?其實,客下讀書時的兼職、實習、實踐,以至所曾參加的一些課外活動-協助助出版學校刊物、舉辦活動,展覽、宣傳......都可算是工作經驗、不過,表達起來要有針對性地展開,列出那些與所找工作有關連的專案重點介紹,必要時更可使用summary的方式,給招聘者深入的瞭解。

我手頭這份材料的相關表這實在簡陋呆板:

1996/7-1996/8 General Clerk, IBM

1995/7-1995/8 Account clerks, Manley Toy Trading

1994/6-1994/8Salesgirl,Esprit.

倘能換一種表述如:

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 mattery, check voucher,......also***Salesgirl, Esprin***developing the technique of sellina, serving and stocking.

豈非能更好地突出個人工作經驗,吸引招聘者的注意力!

Job Objective通常,一般求職者只會在履歷表開端簡單地寫上所應徵的職位-"Position Applied: Management Trainee"或"I am appling for......"其實,若懂得利用這小小空間寫出自己的事業目標(job objective),能顯示出你對該工作的熱誠及憧憬,能令招聘者對你加倍留意。

比如這個不錯的例子job objective To begin as a Marketing Management Trainee, with opportunity to advance to executive level and contribute to the development of firm.

其實,這位外企人士所談的關於準備RESUME的技巧,完全可以應用到中文簡歷上來。各位讀者可以嘗試一下。
