To seek a good job


　Your attention please:Just personal advice, if you don't like it, please ignore it.

　　To seek a good job: Overall Ability

　　Firstly, to renew your knowledge structure as soon as possible. The main differences between those educated people and those uneducated people are the WAY of THINKING and the self-educating skill. Meanwhile, the Internet give everybody an unprecedented chance to search all the resource you need.

　　Please NOTICE the language and computer skills are only the 2 basic tools in a successful career although those 2 skills also need to be improved practically. If you just count on them, you have to face the boring work day after day.

　　Of course, I can't give u the details about what kind of knowledge you might need because different people have different interests in their careers and I don't want to mislead you. To me, Management, Economy, Finance, Politics, Military,History,Sports and arts. However, you may have your choices.

　　Secondly, the more important aspect is your OVERALL ABILITY. That means what kind of person will be welcomed by the society.

　　Let me show u the recommendation form of the Top 30 Business School of U.S.. We can learn how the main-stream American assess the potential manager and leader.

　　In comparison with others, how your recommender will appraise you in terms of the following qualities?

　　There are 6 degrees including Top 5% Unusually Outstanding, Excellent, Very Good, Satisfactory,Needs Attention,and Not Observed.

　　1.Work experience related to management

　　2.Potential for growth

　　3.Ability to work with others,(Superiors,peer, and subordinates)

　　4.Competence in area of responsibility or specialization (technical/organizational skills,attention to detail, ability to complete assignments)

　　5.Personal initiative, motivation

　　6.Integrity

　　7.Analytical ability

　　8.Facility with English

　　9.Written communication skills

　　10.Oral communication skills

　　11.Potential for success as an effective and inspiring upper-level manager

　　I hope the information can be helpful to you. We will discuss something else later.

外企应聘如何准备RESUME


　　一份出色的Resume，是向外企求职的关键之一。不了解有关的常识和程式，不花费相当的心思来展示，以有纯正娴熟的英文功底，决不能获得单位的青睐。在一大堆错误百出、英文表达能力低劣或平庸，毫无针对性和创造性的Resume中，你的那份若能让人 眼睛一亮，成功的机会必将大大增加，以下试着结合一个具体的例子给出说明和评述。

　　Balance Sheet：

　　基本方法选取适当的工作后，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 majors in Marketing Management. Prepared to develop career in the commercial field

　　-outgoing personality

　　-Able to communicate with different levels

　　-Good knowledge in PC operations -Proficiency in written and spoken English/Mandarin

　　则你相应地考虑自己的qualification的选择和表述，如你可写（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 studied advanced level of 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)，将之放在最吸引别人的地方，使招聘者一眼可见，有利于present自己。

　　工作经验的陈述

　　工作经验是一份resume中令招聘者相当感兴趣的一项内容，善加措词是必不可忽视的要务。

　　刚毕业，何来工作经验？其实，客下读书时的兼职、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连的项目重点介绍，必要时更可使用s ummary的方式，给招聘者深入的了解。

　　下面这份材料的相关表这实在简陋呆板：

　　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 mattery, check voucher,……also(Salesgirl, Esprin)developing the technique of sellina, serving and stocking.

　　岂非能更好地突出个人工作经验，吸引招聘者的注意力！

　　Job Objective通常，一般求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 appling for……"其实，若懂得利用这小小空间写出自己的事业目标（job objective），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.

“英语哑巴”巧过英语面试


　　经过一番紧张的笔试之后，那家闻名于世的日本通讯公司终于寄来了面试通知书，要求我参加6天之后的面试，而且特别注明“要加试英语口语”。这一加试可真是突然袭击，如果考英语笔试我还有把握但要说英语，我简直就是哑巴一个！

　　该放弃呢？还是坚持到最后一关？我思忖着，仔细分析了一下所面临的处境：其一、我所应聘的职位是办公室文员，说英语的机会应该不多，没理由考难度大的专业类英语口语 ，考日常用语的可能性极大；其二、笔试的时候，我留意观察了那些竞争者们，我的条件绝对不差；其三，也是最关键的，硬着头皮考上它一场，我什么损失都没有啊。

　　考虑好了对策之后，我到书店买了本《漫游日本》日语基础书及配套的一盘磁带，接下来便是依照计划按部就班的6天了。

　　第一步，用中文写下问题及相应的答案。这一步骤的要求是越细致越好。假设自己就是考官，想问考生哪些问题，诸如：“请介绍一下你的个人经历”、“说说你的家庭状况”、“你的业余爱好是什么”、“你为什么要到我们公司应聘”、“你对日本了解多少”等等大 大小小凡能想到的问题，然后写下自己的回答。

　　第二步，用英文翻译上面的问与答。这一步骤的要求是越规范越好。翻译时稍没把握好时，便立刻翻看词典、语法等工具书，同时让那本《漫游日本》派上用场。我先译成中文再译成英语，因为只有这样，才能把意思表达得更全面，条理更清晰。

　　第三步，背诵及模拟考试。自问自答地进行实战演习，以便更好地适应面试。

　　最后，别忘了该公司来自日本，学习几句简单的日本问候语，全面地翻看一下日本国情介绍，做到知己知彼百战不殆嘛。

　　面试的那天下午，略施粉黛的我身着职业装进入考场，面对着中日两方共6位考官时，我首先用中日两文说“下午好。”其后所考的英文口语涉及到个人经历、兴趣爱好、日本国情等诸多问题，我从容应对总算说得过去。

　　面试结束时，我在鞠躬之后真诚地说了一句“请多关照”。

　　没等几天，我便欣喜地收到了该公司的正式录用通知书，艰苦的一搏，我终于找到了走向社会的第一份工作。

怎样写英文求职信


　　不用赘言，大家都知道，写求职信的最后目的在获得职位，不过，现在的公司老板很少是看信不看人雇用求职的人。一封求职信无论如何文辞并茂，令人心动，公司人事主管非见到这个人的外表是不会给予工作机会的。因此，求职信的目的在于获得面谈的机会。

　　写求职信的要点

　　 公司的老板大多认为，注重小节的人对重大的事务也会谨慎行事。一个人做人做事是否谨慎可以从一封求职信中看出端倪来。你别看轻了短短的一封信，一封求职信可以显露出一个人的嗜好、鉴别力、教育程度以及人格特性。下列几个要点便是泄露一个人‘机密‘的地方。 因此，写信人非格外留意不可。

　　1． 纸张的选用：最好使用品质优良，白色的信纸。信封要配合信纸的质料和颜色。

　　2． 书写：求职者常需用亲手写信，字体要写得清洁可辩，龙飞凤舞的字迹无疑是自寻绝路。如果可能的话，使用打字机把信打出来。这样看起来比较具有商业气息。

　　3． 格式：信文要适当地排列在信纸中，格式要一致，如采用齐头式（或斜线式）便需全部一致，不可中途改变

　　4． 语法、标点和拼写：正确无误的语法、标点和拼写使读信人感到舒畅，错误的语法或拼写则十分明显，一望即知，予人坏印象。尤其要注意的是，绝不可把收信人的姓名或公司名号拼错了。

　　5． 信封：信封上面的地址要完整，称谓要合时宜，信纸的折叠要适当，大小适合信封。

　　6． 附件：求职信函通常不须附加推荐信，除非招聘广告有此要求。遇到这种情形，只须附上复印件即可。求职函内附加邮票或回址信封，强迫对方答覆的作法不足效法，除非对方有此要求。

　　信函的内容

　　 求职信函内容应包括那些？通常根据所欲谋求的工作性质而定。基本上，可以包括下列几项：

　　1． 写这封信的目的或动机：通常求职信都是针对报纸上招聘广告而写的。若此，信中便须提到何月何日的报纸，有时‘工作机会‘是从朋友或介绍所（如青辅会就业辅导中心）听来的，有时是写信人不知某机构、公司有工作机会，毛遂自荐而写的信，不论是哪一种，求职信上 一定要说明写信的缘起和目的。

　　2． 个人资料：写信人应述明自己的年龄或出生年月，教育背景，尤其是和应征的职位有关的训练或教育科目、工作经验或特殊的技能；如无实际经验，略述在学类似经验亦可。

　　3． 备询人员或推荐人：正常的顺序是先获得这些人同意后再把他们的姓名、地址列入信中，推荐人二至三名即可。

　　4． 结尾：求职信的结尾在希望并请求未来的雇主允以面谈的机会，因此，信中要表明可以面谈的时间。使用的句子要有特性、避免软弱、老生常谈的滥调。

　　机智和良好的判断

　　 写求职信要有机智和良好的判断，下列几点可供参考。

　　1． 陈述事实，避免表示意见：与训练和经验有关的事实可以陈述出来，但应避免表示意见说这些训练和经验对所应征的工作将有怎样的关系或好处。

　　2． 不要批评他人：如果你要离开现职，可以说出原因但不要用批评的方式，雇主想要了解你，而非你的工作机会。

　　3． 不要过份渲染自我：你当然认为有能力，够资格才要申请某一职位，但不要过份夸大自己的能力或表现过份信心，尤其不要说出与事实不符的能力或特性来。

　　4． 留意底薪：有的雇主要你提到希望的待遇。你要作良好的判断，写出你觉得可行的最低薪。开始就业的人应知道，与其寻得一份高薪的工作倒不如找待遇尚可而有升迁机会的工作。

　　 求职信英文

　　 应征函的第一段说明写信的缘起目的，有些专家认为不宜用分词子句，如下列各句作为第一句。因为这类句子被人用得大多，显得陈腐，失去突出的特性。

　　Replying to your advertisement…… Answering your advertisement…… Believing that there is an opportunity…… Thinking that there is a vacancy in your company…… Having read your ad……

　　再比较下列三句。（a）句较差，经过修改后（b）句显得较恰当。

　　1．（a）Replying to your recent advertisement in the Boston Evening Globe, I wish to apply for the position of sales manager……

　　　（b）In applying for the position of sales manager I offer my qualifications, which I believe will meet your exacting requirements.

　　2．(a)I believe after reading your advertisement in this morning‘s Journal that you have just the opportunity I am looking for.

　　　(b)your advertisement in this morning‘s Journal for an adjustment manager prompts me to offer you my qualifications for this position

　　3．(a) Having read your advertisement in the New York Times for an accountant, I thought you might be interested in my application.

　　　(b)In your advertisement for an accountant, you indicated that you require the services of a competent person, with thorough training in the field of cost accounting. Please consider me an applicant for the position. Here are my reasons for believing I am qualified for this work.

　　求职的人不得不提到希望待遇时，可用类似的句子：

　　1．I hesitate to state a definite salary, but, as long as you have requested me to , I should consider 6,500 a month satisfactory. 我对待遇总是迟迟无法定个确切数目，但既然您要我说明，我认为月薪六千五百元就满意了。

　　2． Although it is difficult for me to say what compensation I should deserve, I should consider-a month a fair initial salary. 虽然我很难说待遇应该是多少，我以为起薪每月--很合理。

　　3．I feel it is presumptuous of me to state what my salary should be. My first consideration is to satisfy you completely. However, while I am serving my apprenticeship, I should consider-a month satisfactory compensation. 余不敢冒昧说出起薪多少。最初余仅想要如何工作得好，使您满意。在学徒（试用）期间，月薪--即可。

　　提到待遇时不要过分谦虚或表示歉意，下列句子不宜使用。

　　1． As for salary, I do not know what to say. Would$4,500 a month be too much? 至于起薪，我不知怎么说，月薪四千五百元会不会太多？

　　2． Do you think I should be asking too much if I said 5000 dollars a month? 若要求月薪五千元，会不会太高？

　　3． You know what my services are worth better than I do . All I want is a living wage. 对敝人工作的价值您比我更清楚。我仅想够糊口即可。

　　应征函或自荐函的结尾用语，试比较下列各句：

　　1．（a）软弱、羞怯的： If you think I can fill the position after you have read my letter, I shall be glad to talk with you. 读完此信后倘您认为敝人可补缺，敝人愿和您一谈。

　　　(b)改写后（较佳）： If my application has convinced you of my ability to satisfy you, I should welcome the opportunity to talk with you, so that you may judge my personal qualifications further.

　　2．（a）怀疑，不妥、不安全的： If you‘re interested, let me know immediately, as I‘m sure and interview will convince you I‘m the man for the job. 倘贵公司有兴趣，请即告知，敝人深信与您面谈可以使您相信，敝人适合担任此职。

　　　（b）改写后： May I have an interview? You can reach me by telephone at Taipei 884525 between the hours of 7-9 a.m. and 5:30-9:30p.m. any evening. 可否赐予面谈？您可在每天上午七至九时，下午五时半至九时电884525号。

　　3．陈腐的句子： Hoping you will give me an interview, I am……（我希望您惠予面谈） Anticipating a favorable decision, I wait your……（等候您的佳音） Trusting your reply will be satisfactory, I remain(静候满意的答复)

　　4．哀求式的句子，不够完整（漏掉面谈时间）： Won‘t you please give me the chance to interview your? I can be reached by calling Kenmore 69781. 恳请惠予面谈。请打电话K-69781

　　（b）改写后： May I have the opportunity to discuss this matter further with you? My telephone is Kenmore 69781. You can reach me between nine and five o‘clock during the day. 可否惠予面谈以便进一步商讨？我的电话是K-69781。我从上午九时到下午五时都可接通。

　　5．太过自信的句子： I am quite certain that an interview will substantiate my statements Between two and four every afternoon except Tuesday you can reach me by telephoning 731430. 我深信面谈可以证实我的话。您可在每天下午二至四时（星期二例外）打731430号电话通知我。

　　6．较具体有效的句子。 May I have an interview? My residence telephone is (042) 4398. You reach me by calling that number until June 30. After July 2, my address will be Kent House, Bretton Woods, New Hampshire. 可否惠予面谈？我住处电话为43981号。六月三十日以前我都在上址，七月二日以后，我的新址为新罕不夏州布列登林肯特屋。

　　应征函的语气

　　应征函要发挥最大的效果，语气必须肯定、自信、有创意而不过份夸张，如能事先洞察雇主的喜好，或其他人格特性，根据物以类聚的原理，应征函若能配合雇主的特性，求职的人一定可以比其他人占上风，获得面谈的机会。 比较下列各句语气上有何不同：

　　1．I think that I should probably make a good bookkeeper for you. 我想我可能成为贵公司的好簿记号。

　　2．I am confident that my experience and references will show you that I can fulfill the particular requirements of your bookkeeping position. 我想信我的经验和推荐人可以告诉您，我能够符合贵公司簿记员一职的特定需要。

　　3．I recently completed a course in filing at the Crosby School of Business. I am competent not only to install a filing system that will fulfill the needs of your organization, but I am also well qualified to operate it efficiently. 最近我在克洛斯比商业补习班读完一门档案处理的课程，我自信不仅可以设置一套档案人类系统符合您的要求，而且可以有效地操作。

　　4．I feel quite certain that as a result of the course in filing which I completed at the Crosby School of Business, I can install and operate efficiently a filing system for your organization. 我相信在克洛斯比商业实习班修完一门课后，我能够替贵公司设置并且操作一套档案分类系统。

　　第一句显得语气太弱，写信的人有点羞怯的样子。第二句有特殊风格，第三句太过自信，第四句，作者表示谦虚。
