HR這樣看英文簡歷

下面從hr的角度說說英文簡歷寫作的問題:

1. organise your life
第一步:組織好你的經歷
in functional cvs, you put your skills into categories then briefly list past job titles at the bottom. these are suitable for those who have been unemployed for long periods, held different types of jobs in the past, changed jobs too frequently, are returning to work after a long period or who wish to change career.

2. categorize your achievements
第二步:給你的成就分類
when doing up a chronological cv, you should outline sections of your experience, education and skills to show what you’ve accomplished. hr personnel and employers take less than a minute to scan your cv, so it’s imperative to highlight and organize items into several concise and relevant segments.

3. appearance can make or break your cv.
第三步:格式可以成就你的簡歷,也可能毀了它
– fonts: whether you email, fax or post your cv, keep your font plain and easy to read. and select a reasonable size – anywhere between 9 and 12 points should be acceptable. use a sans serif font like arial or verdana, not times new roman.

4. content is king
第四步:內容才是王道
– action-words: use strong action verbs to highlight your job experience and duties. instead of starting your sentence with a noun, kick off with an active verb. for example: customer service representative. assisted customers, trained and supervised 15 new employees, organized special promotional events.
