▶ 你可能不知道的履歷祕辛

http://www.sprinklesandsuits.com/2012/09/blog-post_15.html





我講了這麼多求職/念書打臉文,你可能會覺得我整天在這邊該該叫只會批評不會給建議有何屁用。

我本人沒有什麼特殊經歷,但是在求職過程中有四處碰壁但也小有心得。我本人不厲害但是我有很多厲害的朋友,而我的厲害的朋友告訴我很多資源,是我在台灣時完全不知道的。

簡述一下我的背景,我是無名小卒一枚,剛大學畢業,大四一年在美國加州當交換學生,現在在美國實習。我實習的地點還算可以,一個是資產兩百六十億美金的私募基金Fund of funds,另一個是投資銀行。我的大學生涯還算積極參與社團活動,在台灣做過兩個實習。如果你覺得我這樣的背景還可以,那歡迎參考我的求職小撇步。

所以我今天就要來lauch一系列的求職/履歷小秘方,把我這些其實不是秘密但是台灣人都懶得孤狗出來的資源講給你聽。


第一篇-履歷。

我假設你已經把履歷寫好了,因為我不會浪費時間教你寫履歷,履歷應該要長什麼樣子自己去孤狗。如果你這把年紀履歷還給我寫個兩頁、還貼照片、還用各種不同字體、還寫落落長又沒內容的"Personality","Strength"之類的section,那我也不知道該怎麼辦了。

但有鑑於我以前也經歷過那種白痴的年代,履歷上照片一大張還用各種華麗詞藻敘述我的個性,我還是一一把我所有犯過的錯誤告訴你:

1. 請檢查好你的格式。用一個字體,最好是times new roman,然後字體大小只用十二號字或是十號字。不要隨便在句子裡亂加粗體或斜體,這樣只會看起來不整齊而已。

2. 這個年代沒有人在寫Objective。因為廢話,你的objective就是要找工作。

3. 不用用華麗的詞藻寫你的personality。浪費版面。刪掉它。

4. 不用用華麗的詞藻寫任何句子,事實才是王道。並且請用以下的方法規劃你的每個section:

4.1每個經驗至少要有3-4個bullet points。第一個請寫比較general的概念,敘述一下你做的事情/責任大約是什麼。剩下的幾個點就詳細的寫下你做的projects。

4.2多用數字來顯示自己有多強。如果你只是一個社團公關打電話給兩家廠商,然後你拉到了500元贊助,社課因此從五個人變成十個人,你可以寫: Lead the Public Relations Committee, contacted local businesses and increased club funding by 45%; membership doubled. 
比起什麼Use excellent communication skills to reach out to professional companies 之類的爛英文好吧!

4.3 不要用被動的文字,什麼Learned啦,Helped啦這種都太弱。要寫Initiated, Coordinated, Spearheaded, Constructed這種字們。

4.4. 寫出results。如果你讓社員從五個人變成十個人,就是doubled; 如果你任內社團得了獎,也把獎名寫出來。你拉贊助多了幾千塊,也要想辦法讓數字看起來很酷。

4.5 不要亂加形容詞,形容詞超廢。形容詞乍看之下很酷,但是對業界人士來說滿可笑的; 想想看,如果你在當model,就說你跟凱渥簽了約,幹嘛用各種成語說你美若天仙呢。


5. 對齊!!對齊!!對齊!!必要的話把所有的文字都放到表格裡面,這樣轉檔案的時候才不會不小心亂掉。

6. 寄履歷用word是一件高風險的事-請一定要用pdf謝謝

7. 履歷上的email盡量用學校的,或是正式一點的名字。那些讓人尷尬的幼稚email就不要放上去了。

最後最後- 如果你真的懶得孤狗、懶得找別人的履歷出來看,學姊在這邊給你我喜歡的resume動詞們給你參考:
