如何讓你的簡(jiǎn)歷不再石沉大海

投了很多簡(jiǎn)歷卻沒(méi)什么回音?很可能是你的簡(jiǎn)歷出現(xiàn)問(wèn)題了。招聘經(jīng)理分給每位求職者的看簡(jiǎn)歷時(shí)間只有幾秒，如果你不能在這短短的時(shí)間內(nèi)讓他看到亮點(diǎn)，就等于失去了一次機(jī)會(huì)。所以簡(jiǎn)歷中一定要寫(xiě)最最重要的東西，無(wú)關(guān)內(nèi)容能省就省吧。

If you’re sending out resumes and not getting many calls to interview, there’s a good chance that your resume is the problem. If you’re like most people, your resume could use some work – and like most people, you’re probably not sure where to start.

如果投了簡(jiǎn)歷卻沒(méi)接到多少面試電話，很可能是簡(jiǎn)歷有問(wèn)題。如果你也是這些人中的一員，你的簡(jiǎn)歷可以做些修改——你可能不知道從哪里開(kāi)始改。

But you probably don’t need to start from scratch. You can often significantly improve your resume by just making a handful of changes. Here are five small changes you can make that will have a big impact.

不過(guò)你不需要從頭修改。只做些小改變通常就能大大改善簡(jiǎn)歷。下面的五處修改會(huì)讓簡(jiǎn)歷有很好效果。

1. Get rid of the objective. Resume objectives never help and often hurt. Not only do they feel outdated at this point, but they're all about what you want, rather than what the employer wants. Your resume should be focused on showing your experience, skills and accomplishments. It’s not the place to talk about what you’re seeking in your next job.

1. 不要寫(xiě)求職目標(biāo)。在簡(jiǎn)歷上寫(xiě)求職目標(biāo)從來(lái)沒(méi)用，還會(huì)有壞處。它們不僅落伍過(guò)時(shí)，而且都是有關(guān)你想要的而不是雇主想要的東西。簡(jiǎn)歷應(yīng)該集中展現(xiàn)你的經(jīng)歷、技能和成就。不應(yīng)該商量你在下一份工作中想得到什么。

2. Focus on work accomplishments, not job duties. If you’re like most job seekers, your resume lists what you were responsible for at each job you held, but doesn't explain what you actually achieved there. Rewriting to focus on accomplishments will make it more likely to catch a hiring manager’s eye. For instance, get rid of lines like “managed email list” and replace them with lines like “increased email subscribers by 20 percent in six months” – in other words, something that explains how you performed, not just what your job was.

2. 關(guān)注工作成就，而不是工作職責(zé)。你的簡(jiǎn)歷是不是和大多數(shù)求職者一樣只寫(xiě)每份工作的職責(zé)，卻沒(méi)寫(xiě)結(jié)果?寫(xiě)好成就是關(guān)鍵，這樣更有可能抓住招聘經(jīng)理的眼球。例如，別寫(xiě)像“整理郵件”之類(lèi)的話，用“6個(gè)月內(nèi)郵件用戶(hù)增加了20%”代替——換句話說(shuō)，寫(xiě)清楚你的工作表現(xiàn)，而不只是寫(xiě)工作內(nèi)容。

3. Get rid of big blocks of text. If your resume is filled with large blocks of text – as opposed to bullet points – there’s a good chance that you’re putting hiring managers to sleep. They want to quickly skim the first time they look at your resume, and big blocks of text make that difficult and make most hiring managers’ eyes glaze over. They’ll pay more attention and absorb more information about you if your resume is arranged in bullet points rather than paragraphs.

3. 不要有大段文字。如果你的簡(jiǎn)歷都是大段文字——而不是按要點(diǎn)寫(xiě)——招聘經(jīng)理很可能沒(méi)興趣看了。他們看簡(jiǎn)歷時(shí)想快速瀏覽，大段文字看起來(lái)困難，他們眼睛都要看花了。如果你的簡(jiǎn)歷排出了要點(diǎn)而不是有很多段落，他們會(huì)看得更仔細(xì)，也能了解到更多信息。

4. Shorten it. If your resume is multiple pages, you might be diluting the impact of its contents. With a shorter resume, you’ll ensure that in an initial quick scan, the hiring manager’s eyes fall on the most important things. Plus, long resumes can make you come across as someone who can’t edit and doesn’t know what information is essential and what’s less important. As a general rule, your resume shouldn’t be longer than two pages, maximum. (And if you’re a recent grad, it should only be one page, because you haven’t yet had enough work experience to justify a second one.)

4. 減少頁(yè)數(shù)。如果你的簡(jiǎn)歷有很多頁(yè)，你可能把不重要的內(nèi)容也寫(xiě)上去了。短小精悍的簡(jiǎn)歷能確保招聘經(jīng)理快速掃視時(shí)能看到最重要的東西。另外，長(zhǎng)簡(jiǎn)歷會(huì)讓別人覺(jué)得你不會(huì)編輯文檔，也不會(huì)區(qū)分信息的重要程度。一般來(lái)說(shuō)，簡(jiǎn)歷最多不能超過(guò)兩頁(yè)。(如果你是應(yīng)屆畢業(yè)生，應(yīng)該一頁(yè)就夠了，因?yàn)槟氵€沒(méi)有足夠的工作經(jīng)驗(yàn)去寫(xiě)第二頁(yè)。)

5. Give yourself permission to remove things that don’t strengthen your candidacy. You don’t need three lines explaining boring job duties – especially if these responsibilities are going to be implied by your title. Similarly, you don’t need to include that summer job from eight years ago, that job you did for three weeks that didn’t work out or every skill you can think of. Your resume is a marketing document, not a comprehensive listing of everything about you; include the things that strengthen your candidacy and pare down the rest.

5. 刪掉不夠有競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力的內(nèi)容。你不需要用三行字說(shuō)明無(wú)聊的工作職責(zé)——尤其是這些責(zé)任可以從職位名稱(chēng)中看出來(lái)的時(shí)候。同樣，你不需要寫(xiě)八年前的暑期工作，以及做了三個(gè)星期卻沒(méi)學(xué)到什么技能的工作。你的簡(jiǎn)歷是用來(lái)推銷(xiāo)自己的，不要像寫(xiě)清單一樣把每件事都列下來(lái)，請(qǐng)寫(xiě)能加強(qiáng)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)力和能把別人比下去的事情吧。
