求職者應(yīng)該緊跟時(shí)代潮流打造閃亮簡(jiǎn)歷,在應(yīng)聘時(shí)爭(zhēng)取先機(jī)。
“In today’s job market, your resume needs to immediately stand out,” says Dawn Bugni, a professional resume writer in Wilmington, N.C. Attention spans are at an all-time short, with hiring managers spending just six seconds looking at a resume before deciding whether the applicant is worth further consideration, a recent study by TheLadders found. (That’s if a human looks at it at all; before your application even reaches a hiring manager, it usually has to make it past an automated applicant tracking system.)
“如今人才競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈,簡(jiǎn)歷要有特點(diǎn)才能獲得關(guān)注!泵绹(guó)北卡羅來納州威爾明頓市的撰寫簡(jiǎn)歷專家道恩 布尼表示。美國(guó)知名求職招聘網(wǎng)站TheLadders最近的一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),人們集中注意力的時(shí)間越發(fā)短暫,招聘的人事經(jīng)理只看簡(jiǎn)歷六秒鐘就已經(jīng)完成第一輪篩選。(能走到人工篩選階段的簡(jiǎn)歷才能有這樣的待遇,在到達(dá)人事經(jīng)理這一步前,簡(jiǎn)歷篩選系統(tǒng)已經(jīng)過濾過一道。)
As hiring continues to increase, job seekers will face stiff competition this year. Follow the tips below to make your resume shine in 2016.
由于招聘需求持續(xù)增加,今年求職者面臨的競(jìng)爭(zhēng)只會(huì)更激烈?纯聪旅娴脑E竅,今年讓簡(jiǎn)歷大放光彩吧。
1. Enhance your contact information.
1、突出你的聯(lián)系方式
Put simply: hiring managers are busy; make their job easier by hyperlinking your email address so that you’re only one click away, says Wendy Enelow, co-author of Modernize Your Resume: Get Noticed…Get Hired. Bear in mind that you expose yourself to identify theft if you include your full mailing address, says Enelow, so only put your city, state, and zip code on your resume. Also, use active links to your LinkedIn profile and any other social media accounts that are fit for recruiters.
《讓你的簡(jiǎn)歷現(xiàn)代化:從得到關(guān)注……到成功應(yīng)聘》一書的合著者溫迪 伊尼羅解釋說:其實(shí)道理很簡(jiǎn)單,人事經(jīng)理工作繁忙,所以要盡可能簡(jiǎn)化操作,簡(jiǎn)歷中的電郵地址可以做成超鏈接,鼠標(biāo)一點(diǎn)就能給你發(fā)郵件。伊尼羅說,要注意一點(diǎn),如果你提供了完整的郵寄地址,有可能遭遇隱私泄露,所以簡(jiǎn)歷里寫上州、城市和郵編就行。另外,簡(jiǎn)歷里提到的LinkedIn頁面和其他社交媒體賬號(hào)也都加上超鏈接,方便人事經(jīng)理點(diǎn)擊。
2. Make the page “pop.”
2、讓頁面“時(shí)髦”起來
Depending on the industry, you can distinguish your resume by punching up the design, but exercise caution: a graphic artist, for example, has more creative leeway than an accountant. Enelow’s co-author Louise Kursmark recommends using color to make your resume unique. To stay professional, consider making only section headers blue, for example, and leaving the rest in black, Kursmark suggests. And replace the outdated Times New Roman with a more modern font such as Cambria, Calibri, or Georgia, Enelow says. (As standard typefaces, they translate well between operating systems.)
根據(jù)不同行業(yè)的特點(diǎn),可以通過強(qiáng)化設(shè)計(jì)感讓簡(jiǎn)歷出彩,但這招要慎用:比方說平面設(shè)計(jì)師的簡(jiǎn)歷比會(huì)計(jì)的簡(jiǎn)歷有更多的創(chuàng)意空間。與伊尼羅合著的作者路易斯 克斯馬克建議,用不同的顏色讓簡(jiǎn)歷與眾不同。他認(rèn)為,要凸顯職業(yè)感,可以考慮只在抬頭部分用藍(lán)色字體,其他內(nèi)容的字體還都是黑色。伊尼羅則是建議,不妨用Cambria、Calibri或者Georgia等更常用的字體,而不是老氣橫秋的Times New Roman。(這些都是標(biāo)準(zhǔn)字體,各種操作系統(tǒng)都能兼容。)
3. Ditch the objective statement…
3、刪除有關(guān)職業(yè)目標(biāo)的內(nèi)容……
Today’s hiring managers aren’t concerned with what is it you’re looking for—they’re focused on finding the right hire. Thus, “the objective statement has become obsolete,” says Tiffani Murray, an HR professional and resume writer at Atlanta-based Personality On a Page. …and lead with a summary. To capture the hiring manager’s attention, start your resume with a short professional synopsis that states your years of experience, job history, and big career achievements. Instead of labeling the section a “summary,” use the header to highlight your area of expertise, says Enelow.
如今的人事經(jīng)理不關(guān)心求職者的目標(biāo)——他們只想招到合適的人。美國(guó)亞特蘭大職業(yè)寫作服務(wù)平臺(tái)Personality On a Page的一位簡(jiǎn)歷寫手、人力資源專家蒂凡尼 穆雷說:“職業(yè)目標(biāo)陳述已經(jīng)過時(shí)了! 用一段摘要開頭。為了吸引人事經(jīng)理注意,簡(jiǎn)歷開頭寫上一段簡(jiǎn)短的職業(yè)簡(jiǎn)介,闡明從業(yè)經(jīng)驗(yàn)、過往工作和比較突出的成就。伊尼羅還說,不要簡(jiǎn)單地在這部分內(nèi)容前面寫上“摘要”,頁眉位置放上醒目的文字突出精通的領(lǐng)域。
4. Guide the reader’s eye.
4、抓住讀者的目光
The Internet has changed reading behavior, says Kursmark: “People don’t read top to bottom anymore. They’re constantly skimming and looking at different parts of the page, and if you don’t structure your resume to appeal to that, a lot of good material will get overlooked.” Therefore, use bolded text to ensure your achievements stand out.
克斯馬克說,互聯(lián)網(wǎng)改變了人們的閱讀習(xí)慣,“人們不再從頭讀到尾,而是快速瀏覽,在各部分停留一會(huì),如果你的簡(jiǎn)歷沒根據(jù)瀏覽習(xí)慣突出重點(diǎn)吸引眼球,很多關(guān)鍵信息可能會(huì)被忽視。”所以,過往成就的內(nèi)容務(wù)必加粗,確保招聘人員能看到。
5. Beat the robots.
5、通過簡(jiǎn)歷系統(tǒng)篩選
Many medium and large companies use software to weed out candidates. Your resume will need the right keywords to get through, so mirror the language of the job posting, advises Bugni, and pay attention to detail. “Changing something as simple as ‘customer service’ to ‘client relations’ can get your resume approved or rejected,” she says.
許多大中型企業(yè)都在用篩選軟件過濾簡(jiǎn)歷。布尼建議,要通過篩選,你的簡(jiǎn)歷需要有合適的關(guān)鍵詞,所以多用招聘職位里提到的內(nèi)容,尤其注意細(xì)節(jié)。她舉例說:“有時(shí)只要稍微改變一點(diǎn),比‘客戶服務(wù)’與‘客戶關(guān)系’兩字之差,用對(duì)了簡(jiǎn)歷就能通過,否則就被拒絕!
6. Forgo a “skills” section.
6、放棄“技能”內(nèi)容
Weave your talents into your work experience. “Employers are looking for more than a list of skills,” says Murray. “They want to know how you’ve applied them.” The exception: It’s beneficial to have a designated section when applying for a skills-based job that requires specific qualifications, such as an IT specialist.
將你的才華融入工作經(jīng)歷內(nèi)容中!罢衅阜讲⒉粌H僅想看技能的羅列,” 穆雷說,“他們更希望了解你怎樣運(yùn)用在實(shí)際中!辈贿^也有例外:申請(qǐng)有特定資質(zhì)要求的技能型工作時(shí),比如信息技術(shù)專家,最好在簡(jiǎn)歷里專門劃出一塊列出已掌握的技能。
7. Maximize your real estate.
7、盡量全面說明真實(shí)履歷
Despite what you may have heard, you don’t necessarily need to limit your resume to one page. “A resume is as long as it needs to be to convey value. And not one word more,” says Bugni. That said, a two-page resume may be appropriate for someone with 30 years’ experience—not for a recent college graduate. To conserve space use bullet points, active verbs, and industry-specific acronyms, and don’t state the obvious (e.g., including “references available upon request”)。
你可能聽說過要控制簡(jiǎn)歷的篇幅,但也不必拘泥于一頁。布尼說:“簡(jiǎn)歷的長(zhǎng)短主要看關(guān)鍵信息多少,不相關(guān)的話一個(gè)字都是多余!睋Q言之,如果求職者有30年工作經(jīng)歷,而不是剛畢業(yè)的大學(xué)生,可能兩頁的簡(jiǎn)歷更合適。為了節(jié)省篇幅,簡(jiǎn)歷應(yīng)該盡量用重點(diǎn)符號(hào)、主動(dòng)語態(tài)的動(dòng)詞和行業(yè)專用的縮略語,廢話盡量少說(比如加一句“如有需要,可提供背景調(diào)查信息。”)。
