英文簡(jiǎn)歷最全寫(xiě)作技巧
在英文簡(jiǎn)歷中，用人單位的招聘官們最想看到的就是人才的技術(shù)能力，技術(shù)能力直接關(guān)系到求職者能不能勝任工作。如果在目標(biāo)在職位上，有完全適合的技術(shù)能力，基本上求職就能夠成功。
How long should your résumé be? It’s a long-standing debate among recruiters, but there is one thing they agree on: it needs to be relevant. This is true whether you're just out of school or have worked for 20 years, and it means your résumé needs to be concise and tailored to that job.
你的簡(jiǎn)歷到底應(yīng)該寫(xiě)多長(zhǎng)?這是招聘人員一直在爭(zhēng)論的問(wèn)題，但有一點(diǎn)是大家公認(rèn)的：簡(jiǎn)歷要與申請(qǐng)的職位緊密相關(guān)。無(wú)論你是剛畢業(yè)還是已經(jīng)工作了20年，這一點(diǎn)都適用，它的意思是你的簡(jiǎn)歷必須簡(jiǎn)練并且只和申請(qǐng)的工作相關(guān)。
Recruiters won't read a full bulleted list of your duties and everything you did at every job. They only want to read what in your background is applicable to the particular job and/or company to which you’re applying. So your task is to make the information easily available.
招聘人員不會(huì)讀完所有你列出的工作職責(zé)和過(guò)往工作經(jīng)歷。他們只會(huì)瀏覽你的背景中適合所申請(qǐng)的職位或公司的部分。所以你的任務(wù)就是讓他們能輕易找到這些信息。
If you’ve just graduated from college or even graduate school immediately following college, it won’t be hard to keep your résumé to one page. Even if you already have a one- or two-page résumé, there are probably things you can remove that don't relate to your current job application. The great news is that LinkedIn or a personal website can be used as a space to put all that extra information. Think of it as the curriculum vitae (CV) version of your résumé – it can be as long as it needs to be.
如果你剛剛大學(xué)畢業(yè)或是研究生畢業(yè)，那么想要簡(jiǎn)歷只有一張紙并不難。即使你的簡(jiǎn)歷有一頁(yè)甚至兩頁(yè)紙，那也肯定有一些和你申請(qǐng)的工作無(wú)關(guān)的內(nèi)容可以刪掉。好消息是像領(lǐng)英或其他個(gè)人網(wǎng)站可以用來(lái)儲(chǔ)存那些不相干的個(gè)人信息。把個(gè)人主頁(yè)當(dāng)成詳細(xì)版的簡(jiǎn)歷——想寫(xiě)多長(zhǎng)寫(xiě)多長(zhǎng)。
What to Keep on Your Résumé
簡(jiǎn)歷上應(yīng)該寫(xiě)什么
Career summary. Summarize your work experience and skills at the top, but apply it to the job of interest: What do you have that the employer is looking for?
職業(yè)生涯總結(jié)。將工作經(jīng)歷和技能寫(xiě)在簡(jiǎn)歷頂端，但是只保留和目標(biāo)工作相關(guān)的部分：也就是雇主需要的工作經(jīng)歷和技能。
Bullets. Try not to get hung up on making your résumé only one or two pages to please recruiters and start deleting things without careful consideration. Your goal is to get the recruiter to read. How can you do that? Make it pertinent, in other words, make it worth their time. Answer what they're asking; think of the job description as a questionnaire – what on the description can you answer with a solid “yes, I’ve done that” or a “I’ve done some of that?" Those are the items that you keep on the résumé you’re sending.
列點(diǎn)。不要為了討好招聘人員把簡(jiǎn)歷縮短到一兩頁(yè)就開(kāi)始不經(jīng)考慮的刪除內(nèi)容。你的目的是讓他們看你的簡(jiǎn)歷。如何做到呢?只寫(xiě)相關(guān)內(nèi)容，換句話說(shuō)，就是讓他們覺(jué)得看簡(jiǎn)歷的時(shí)間沒(méi)有白費(fèi)�；卮鹚麄儐�(wèn)的問(wèn)題：將職位描述看成問(wèn)卷——職位描述中有哪些要求你可以用“完全滿足“或“有過(guò)這個(gè)經(jīng)歷”或“有部分經(jīng)驗(yàn)” 來(lái)回答。這是你在簡(jiǎn)歷上要寫(xiě)的東西。
Education. If you graduated more than five years ago, you don’t need to include years of study. You do need to list your degree(s), school name(s) and location(s).
教育背景。如果你已經(jīng)畢業(yè)5年了，你沒(méi)必要把學(xué)生時(shí)代的經(jīng)歷寫(xiě)進(jìn)簡(jiǎn)歷。但是學(xué)歷，畢業(yè)院校及其所在地是必須要寫(xiě)的。
Awards. Recognition is something that’s quite important to note, so in most cases, you’ll want to leave this on your résumé.
獲獎(jiǎng)經(jīng)歷。獲獎(jiǎng)經(jīng)歷是非常重要的一項(xiàng)，大多情況下，簡(jiǎn)歷上都要有。
While it’s true that one person may have several pages of relevant information for the job, and another may have only one page of pertinent background, it’s worth taking a closer look to see if there are things taking up valuable space. If a recruiter sees a lot of details that don't pertain to the job, you're likely to lose her attention.
當(dāng)然有一些人和工作相關(guān)的經(jīng)歷就能寫(xiě)好幾頁(yè)紙，但另一些人相關(guān)背景只能寫(xiě)一頁(yè)，仔細(xì)檢查是否每一部分內(nèi)容值得寫(xiě)進(jìn)簡(jiǎn)歷是值得的。如果招聘人員看到很多和工作不想關(guān)的細(xì)節(jié)，他的注意力就不會(huì)放在你身上了。
What to Consider Taking Off
哪些內(nèi)容可以考慮刪去
Community activities. If you’re changing industries and you’ve done volunteer work in the one you’re transitioning to, it’s good to include that. However, if the volunteer work is unrelated to the job you’re pursuing and your document is more than two pages, strike this and include it in your LinkedIn profile instead. You could bring it up during small talk at an interview, too.
社區(qū)活動(dòng)。如果你換了工作領(lǐng)域，但曾經(jīng)在你申請(qǐng)的工作領(lǐng)域做過(guò)志愿工作，這部分是可以保留的。但是如果志愿工作和申請(qǐng)的工作無(wú)關(guān)而且簡(jiǎn)歷已經(jīng)超過(guò)兩頁(yè)了，刪去這部分然后把它寫(xiě)進(jìn)領(lǐng)英網(wǎng)站的個(gè)人資料中。你也可以在面試環(huán)節(jié)提到這次經(jīng)歷。
Coursework. Again, if you’re transitioning into a new field or fresh out of school, it’s good to include relevant coursework. There is no reason to include this information if you’ve been working for a while and you're not making a significant career change.
課程作業(yè)。同樣，如果你更換了工作領(lǐng)域或剛剛畢業(yè)，相關(guān)的課程作業(yè)可以寫(xiě)進(jìn)簡(jiǎn)歷。但如果你已經(jīng)有工作經(jīng)歷而且并不打算跨行業(yè)工作的話，就沒(méi)必要寫(xiě)課程作業(yè)了。
Skills. There are many skills out there from language to technical. Are your particular skills related to the job? If so, are they already reflected in an earlier part of your résumé? If the answer to the first question is no, you don’t need to include them.
技能。技能有很多種，從語(yǔ)言到專業(yè)技術(shù)。你的某項(xiàng)技能是否和工作相關(guān)呢?如果是，那么它們是否已經(jīng)在之前提到了呢?如果對(duì)于第一個(gè)問(wèn)題的回答是否定的，那就不用寫(xiě)了。
Hobbies. These make great talking points and may produce chemistry with a hiring manager. However, it takes up critical space.
愛(ài)好。這部分可以成為很好的談資，甚至?xí)凸椭鳟a(chǎn)生奇妙的化學(xué)反應(yīng)。但是，篇幅很重要。
Many other countries and certain industries in the U.S. use a curriculum vitae (CV) instead of a résumé. These are generally much longer and cover more personal data. You can find samples online if you’ve been asked to write one.
其他國(guó)家和美國(guó)一些工作領(lǐng)域會(huì)使用個(gè)人履歷而不是簡(jiǎn)歷。個(gè)人履歷比簡(jiǎn)歷要長(zhǎng)得多，而且涵蓋更多的個(gè)人資料。你可以在網(wǎng)上找到模板。
What to Save
Your LinkedIn profile should have the information in your résumé plus additional material. In other words, it’s the full generic data sheet on you and you can include as much information as you wish.
你的領(lǐng)英資料應(yīng)該包括簡(jiǎn)歷和其他附加材料。換句話說(shuō)，它包含你所有的基本資料，你想寫(xiě)多少信息就可以寫(xiě)多少。
In addition to including community activities, coursework, skills, volunteer work and hobbies, you can insert causes that you care about, professional development activities and affiliations. You can include presentations, publications and other knowledge that you possess. This is a good place to go beyond your professional self to show what you do outside of work; just don’t get too personal.
除了社區(qū)活動(dòng)，課程作業(yè)，技能，志愿工作和愛(ài)好，你可以寫(xiě)自己關(guān)注的事業(yè)，職業(yè)發(fā)展活動(dòng)和隸屬關(guān)系。你可以上傳演講、出版書(shū)籍和其他你擁有的知識(shí)。這是一個(gè)展示工作之外的自己的絕佳平臺(tái);只是不要人身攻擊。
Nowadays, the send-one-résumé-to-all approach doesn't work. Each résumé should be relevant to the job to which you’re applying, which means extra work on your part to ensure the right pieces are there. It’s not a question of “should my résumé be one page?” but “is my résumé relevant enough to the job so that the recruiter will read it and consider me as a serious candidate?”
現(xiàn)今，一份簡(jiǎn)歷同時(shí)發(fā)給多家公司是行不通的。每份簡(jiǎn)歷都要和申請(qǐng)的工作密切相關(guān)，所以為了確保每家公司拿到正確的簡(jiǎn)歷，你要多干些活了。這不是“我的簡(jiǎn)歷是否應(yīng)該在一頁(yè)紙內(nèi)?”的問(wèn)題，而是“我的簡(jiǎn)歷是否和所申請(qǐng)的工作相關(guān)以至于招聘人員能看到我的簡(jiǎn)歷并把我列為重要候選人?

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(jiǎn)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(jī)”和“工作情況”之間的平衡。
2. Make certain your document is error free.
2. 確保簡(jiǎn)歷文字準(zhǔn)確無(wú)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(xiě)在紙上的。不要自己來(lái)檢查，不要靠拼寫(xiě)工具檢查。請(qǐng)一位語(yǔ)法很強(qiáng)的朋友來(lái)檢查你制作好的簡(jiǎn)歷。
3. Find a balance between wordiness and lack of detail.
3. “簡(jiǎn)”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(wú)關(guān)的信息。要讓簡(jiǎn)歷內(nèi)容和能幫你爭(zhēng)取到面試機(jī)會(huì)。刪掉無(wú)關(guān)的、對(duì)贏得面試不會(huì)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(jiǎn)歷中。簡(jiǎn)歷都是以(隱藏的)第一人稱來(lái)書(shū)寫(xiě)的。例如：描述上一份工作時(shí)，不要寫(xiě)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(jiǎn)歷上出現(xiàn)“片段句”完全可以，而且在實(shí)際中會(huì)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(xiě)，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(xiě)成“建設(shè)了一只包括八名顧問(wèn)，充滿活力的團(tuán)隊(duì)”，寫(xiě)成“建設(shè)了一只包括8名顧問(wèn)，充滿活力的團(tuán)隊(duì)”會(huì)更能獲得優(yōu)勢(shì)。
6. Think "accomplishments" rather than "job duties.
6. "注重“業(yè)績(jī)”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(guò)榮譽(yù)?這些是很重要的信息，會(huì)吸引目光，會(huì)讓你的簡(jiǎn)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(guò)去的挫折都不該出現(xiàn)在簡(jiǎn)歷上。雇主們要找的是過(guò)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(guò)電話來(lái)進(jìn)行的，而不是當(dāng)面。在電話來(lái)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(jiǎn)歷!
