500強HR談如何準備英文簡歷
我們通過對大量面試資料的分析，發現一些典型的問題在各種面試中反覆出現，恰恰是這些看似平常的問題使許多應聘者失去了得到理想工作的機會。所以在面試篇中，我們將逐個對這些常見的面試問題進行講解，並提供得體應答例句。相信面試篇能助您充滿信心地在面試中侃侃而談，在最激烈的競爭中脫穎而出。
一份出色的Resume，是向外企求職的關鍵之一。不瞭解有關的常識和程式，不花費相當的心思來展示，光有純正嫺熟的英文功底，並不能獲得單位的青睞。在一大堆錯誤百出、英文表達能力低劣或平庸，毫無針對性和創造性的Resume中，你的那份若能讓人眼睛一亮，成功的機會必將大大增加，下面結合一個具體的例子給出說明和評述。
Balance Sheet基本方法
選擇要應聘的工作後，必須看清招聘廣告上所列出的每項要求，再將自己的學歷、能力與興趣逐一與之比較，作一張balance sheet.
例如，一則關於marketing management trainee和job requirement是這樣寫的：
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
那麼你相應地考慮自己的qualification的選擇和表述，就可以這樣寫(與上列各項對應)：
-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
這個方法的好處是可讓求職者清楚瞭解該職位是否適合自己，而本身資料又是否切合要求，而且，明白了各項要求後，就可依據每一點在履歷表上重點提出自己在該方面的強項。突出賣點(selling point)，將之放在最吸引人的地方，使招聘者一眼可見，有利於present自己。
Work experience工作經驗的陳述
工作經驗是resume中令招聘者相當感興趣的一項內容，善加措詞是不可忽視的要務。
剛畢業，何來工作經驗?其實，讀書時的兼職、實習、實踐，以至所曾參加的一些課外活動-協助出版學校刊物、舉辦活動，展覽、宣傳……都可算是工作經驗、不過，表達起來要有針對性地展開，列出那些與所找工作有關的項目重點介紹，必要時更可使用summary的方式，以給招聘者深入的瞭解。
下面的寫法顯得相當簡陋呆板：
1996/7-1996/8 General Clerk, IBM
1995/7-1995/8 Account clerks, Manley Toy Trading
1994/6-1994/8Salesgirl, Esprit.倘能換一種表述如：
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.
就能更好地突出個人工作經驗，吸引招聘者的注意力!
Job objective 事業目標
通常，一般求職者只會在履歷表開端簡單地寫上所應徵的職位-Position Applied: Management Trainee或I am applying for... 其實，若懂得利用這小小空間寫出自己的事業目標(job objective)，更能顯示出你對該工作的熱誠及憧憬，能令招聘者對你加倍留意。
比如這個不錯的例子：
To begin as a Marketing Management Trainee, with opportunity to advance to executive level and contribute to the development of firm.
其實，這位外企人士所談的關於準備英文簡歷的技巧，也完全可以應用到中文簡歷上來。各位讀者可以嘗試一下。
如何緩解工作壓力
快節奏的都市生活常常讓人喘不過氣來，繁重的工作總是讓人高度緊張。長期在“高壓”下工作不但有損健康，對工作本身也會有壞影響。所以白領們一定要學會如何緩解工作壓力。
The time you spend at the office may be the most stressful part of your day, but it doesn't have to be. You have a greater ability to shape your office environment than you may realize.
Take breaks(小憩) throughout the day. It will help clear your mind and relieve pressure. Something as simple as going to the water cooler for a drink may do the trick(達到目的).
Enroll in a noontime or an after-work exercise class(健身培訓). This will give you a chance to unwind(放鬆) and a way to relieve stress.
To help your workday go smoothly, try pacing your activities(有條不紊地安排工作): Do more demanding work(要求較高的工作) in the morning, when your energy level is higher, and easier work later in the day, when you may be tired.
Try listening to music recordings, such as a pounding surf or songbirds(海浪拍打岩石或鳥兒歌唱的聲音), to help you relax. Such tapes are sold commercially. Use headphones if you'll be listening to them in the middle of the workday.
Get to work early or stay late once a week. You may be able to accomplish more when you vary your routine.
If your stress comes from job insecurity, take stock of(評估) yourself. Update your resume, and remind yourself of your skills and strengths. Also, make sure you keep up with new developments in your field. This will make you valuable to employers.
Don't let work rumors, which are usually false, cause you worry. A co-worker may just be thinking out loud about worst-case scenarios(最壞的情況).
