求職中，並不是一張簡歷適合所有應聘公司，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，製作一張為該公司該崗位“量身定做”的簡歷。
balance sheet基本方法
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
相應地考慮自己的qualification的選擇和表述，突出你的重點優勢，就可以這樣寫：
-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
如此方法，，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“一見傾心”，更利於“銷售”自己。
job objective 事業目標
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... 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：
job objective
to begin as a marketing management trainee, with opportunity to advance to executive level and contribute to the development of firm.
工作經歷
工作經歷是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，你的弱項就是沒有工作經驗?其實不然，讀書時的兼職、實習、實踐，以至所曾參加的一些課外活動，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，以給招聘者深入的了解。
以下常見的寫法夠簡潔，但是相當的呆板無趣：
20xx/7-20xx/8 general clerk, ibm
20xx/7-20xx/8 account clerks, manley toy trading
20xx/6-20xx/8salesgirl, esprit.
倘若換一種表述如：
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.
你會不會認為這樣的效果更佳呢?更能突出個人工作經驗，吸引招聘者的注意力!
