她給畢業(yè)生提出了五條寶貴的建議：(如何才能找到你夢(mèng)想中的工作)

Know where you want to go. Start working on your personal road map right now. Ask yourself where you want to be in one year, five years and 10 years from today. Define what's important to you. Pitch your plan to anyone who will listen, and before you know it, you'll acquire the interviewing skills you need to put your plan into action.

一，要明確方向?，F(xiàn)在開(kāi)始規(guī)劃你的人生地圖，問(wèn)問(wèn)自己，一年后，五年后，十年后，分別要達(dá)到什么位置。要弄清楚什么對(duì)于你來(lái)說(shuō)才是最重要的。然后把你的計(jì)劃告訴其他人，在不知不覺(jué)中，你的面試能力也會(huì)得到提高。

Learn the art of the pivot. Change can be scary, but it's during transformations that some of the best opportunities present themselves. Don't be afraid of a curveball: Be ready and open to new opportunities that are exciting, fun and potentially difficult.

二，要懂得“轉(zhuǎn)換”的藝術(shù)。變化可能會(huì)有風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，然而最好的機(jī)遇都在你尋求改變時(shí)出現(xiàn)的。要勇敢地打出“曲線球”(棒球術(shù)語(yǔ))：隨時(shí)準(zhǔn)備好迎接新的挑戰(zhàn)吧，那可能讓人興奮、感覺(jué)有趣，也可能困難重重。

Read, read and read. The end of college should mark the beginning of a lifetime of learning. Be interesting, be informed, be current, and have a point of view that is modern and educated. Reading can help you make that happen.

三，讀書(shū)，讀書(shū)，還是讀書(shū)。大學(xué)的終點(diǎn)是一生學(xué)習(xí)的起點(diǎn)。你要學(xué)會(huì)風(fēng)趣，見(jiàn)多識(shí)廣，跟得上潮流，要能提得出有價(jià)值的見(jiàn)解。而讀書(shū)能幫你辦到這一切。

Network with everyone. Make contacts among your parents' friends, your neighbors, your community organizations — wherever you can find working adults, network. Go out there and make the connections at any free forum you can find.

四，擴(kuò)大你的社交網(wǎng)絡(luò)。多和父母的朋友、鄰居以及社區(qū)組織以及其他任何有過(guò)工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)的人聊天，走進(jìn)他們的圈子。或者是通過(guò)任何其他渠道與人交流。

Tell a great story. Storytellers make it in this world. Learn to tell a great story of how you grew up, an event that shaped your life, or even a vacation that took you to a new place. People want to hear new perspectives. They want to get a sense of your ability to articulate, and they want to know that you are interesting.

五，學(xué)會(huì)講故事。在這個(gè)社會(huì)上，會(huì)講故事的人很能吃得開(kāi)。你要能夠生動(dòng)地講述你的成長(zhǎng)經(jīng)歷、改變你人生的重大事件或者是一次到陌生城市的旅行。人們都喜歡聽(tīng)故事。他們想要通過(guò)你的講述了解你的語(yǔ)言能力，想要知道你是一個(gè)有趣的人。
