Balance Sheet基本方法

选择要应聘的工作后，必须看清招聘广告上所列出的每项要求，再将自己的学历、能力与兴趣逐一与之比较，作一张balance sheet.

例如，一则关于marketing management trainee和job requirement是这样写的：

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

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

-Outgoing personality

-Able to communicate at different levels

-Good knowledge of PC operations

-Proficiency in written and spoken English/Mandarin

那么你相应地考虑自己的qualification的选择和表述，就可以这样写(与上列各项对应)：

-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 Mandarin

这个方法的好处是可让求职者清楚了解该职位是否适合自己，而本身资料又是否切合要求，而且，明白了各项要求后，就可依据每一点在履历表上重点提出自己在该方面的强项。突出卖点(selling point)，将之放在最吸引人的地方，使招聘者一眼可见，有利于present自己。

Work experience工作经验的陈述

工作经验是resume中令招聘者相当感兴趣的一项内容，善加措词是不可忽视的要务。

刚毕业，何来工作经验?其实，读书时的兼职、实习、实践，以至所曾参加的一些课外活动-协助出版学校刊物、举办活动，展览、宣传……都可算是工作经验、不过，表达起来要有针对性地展开，列出那些与所找工作有关的项目重点介绍，必要时更可使用summary的方式，以给招聘者深入的了解。

下面的写法显得相当简陋呆板：

1996/7-1996/8 General Clerk, IBM

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

1994/6-1994/8Salesgirl, Esprit.

倘能换一种表述如：

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 matter, check voucher,… also (Salesgirl, Esprit) developing the technique of selling, serving and stocking.

就能更好地突出个人工作经验，吸引招聘者的注意力!

Job objective 事业目标

通常，一般求职者只会在履历表开端简单地写上所应征的职位-Position Applied: Management Trainee或I am applying for... 其实，若懂得利用这小小空间写出自己的事业目标(job objective)，更能显示出你对该工作的热诚及憧憬，能令招聘者对你加倍留意。

比如这个不错的例子：

Job objective

To begin as a Marketing Management Trainee, with opportunity to advance to executive level and contribute to the development of firm.

其实，这位外企人士所谈的关于准备英文简历的技巧，也完全可以应用到中文简历上来。各位读者可以尝试一下。
