【職場實用英語】萬用嘅Professional Bio (Part 2)

【職場實用英語】萬用嘅Professional Bio (Part 2)

今期Part 2會更深入咁講結構同內容,仲會有template下載。未睇part 1嘅話可以去睇番 ->轉送門

 

結構同內容

 

第一句就落名

話明係你嘅Bio,重點當然喺你度啦,所以第一句就可以出咗你個全名,等於一間公司做branding、落廣告,都會喺當眼位置出公司名。

 

表明身份

名,雖然唔係浮雲,但係講到尾只係一個符號,身份先至係重點,例如「陳大文總經理」,「總經理」先係你會注意嘅地方。所以第一句嘅典型嘅寫法係「陳大文嘅職業/職位係XXX,有XXX學位」,例如:

John Chan is a Staffing Recruiter with a degree in psychology.

Staffing Recruiter即係做咩呢?好似知又好似唔知,具體得嚟又有啲抽象,仲要有個心理學學位,唔知有又有咩關係呢?寫得呢個學歷出嚟,就唔好嘥,結合埋一齊突出優勢,呢度應該講多少少。

John Chan is a Staffing Recruiter and certified psychologist who specialises in discovering young professionals’ talents and passions.

 

幫個故事開咗個頭,之後就有空間可以再講詳細啲。一句說話就將名、身份同優勢講咗出嚟,可以吸引人睇落去,就算喺呢度停低,都會對你留下清晰嘅印象。

如果工作或者職位比較特別或者少人知,篇幅又唔大限制,就酌量再講多啲。

 

事業成就

如果你寫嘅事業成係喺job description度抄出嚟,你要重新寫過啦,果啲係工作內容,唔係成就(achievement)。除非你係fresh grad,否則至少寫一項事業成就。咩叫事業成就?

He conceives and implements marketing strategies that help his clients increase brand awareness, generate leads and acquire new customers. ABC, DCE and FGH Company are his happy clients.

首先好具體咁講做咗啲咩,然後達到咩具體效果,愈具體愈真實,愈有說服力。可以嘅話順便拋啲大brand嘅名出嚟,名牌效應始終係人性,但係唔好拋太多,兩三個就夠,太多就感覺係賣弄,亦都唔會記得。

 

寫故事,唔好寫list

簡略寫吓工作經驗。如果你當佢係Resume、逐樣嘢一張清單咁列出嚟,咁好容易寫,但係咁做只係重複咗resume嘅功能,Professional Bio係另一個舞台、另一種表演,如果寫到好似resume咁,就好似喺紅館四面台上用演講嘅方式「讀」一首快歌一樣,台下實要你「回水」。

 

講故事就最有效,故事最易入腦最易記得,Professional Bio就係講一個屬於你嘅故事。

John Chan is a copywriter-turned-analyst passionate about using data and analytics to tell a story.

呢句其實係第一句,但係已經帶出咗由copywriter轉行到analyst嘅經歷,甚至將其中嘅原因同優勢都提埋。

John has nearly 10 years of experience working in marketing for large brands. He knows that how well you connect with the real people truly drives conversions.

呢種係常見嘅平舖直敍,仲有啲恃老賣老。

After spending nearly a decade working in marketing for multimillion dollar brands, John understands what truly drives conversions – it’s how well you connect with the real people.

輕描淡寫咁講喺業內做咗10年,感覺順理成章。

 

主角都需要配角

頭先講咗,呢個係你嘅故事,你當然係主角,但係好少故事係得個主角一個人撐起成個場嘅,白雪公主都要有後母同小矮人,個故事先有得講落去啦,所以講你嘅故事果陣一定要有其他角色。

A strong believer in the power of positive thinking in the workplace, John regularly develops internal wellness campaigns to share effective mental health techniques with employees.

John helps homeowners and new buyers secure a loan that suits their budget and goals.

After a successful career boosting growth of small banks and real estate agencies, John now helps them write marketing copy for their products and services.

咁嘅寫法亦都可以提醒自己唔好一味咁讚自己,話自己係乜乜乜,而係究竟做咗啲咩實事,幫其他人創造價值(value creation)。

【職場熱話】公司突然Cut醫療保險合法嗎?打工仔必睇自保指南!

近期經濟環境充滿挑戰,不少公司為了控制成本,紛紛向員工福利開刀。最令打工仔頭痛的,莫過於公司突然宣佈「取消員工醫療保險」。這項本來用作保障健康的福利突然消失,到底公司這樣做是否合法?身為打工仔,面對福利縮水又有甚麼對策? 迷思一:法例有規定公司必須包醫保嗎? 沒有。 很多打工仔會將「醫保」和「勞保」混淆。根據香港法例,僱主必須為所有僱員購買「僱員補償保險」(俗稱勞保),以承擔僱員因工受傷或死亡的補償責任。然而,一般涵蓋平時傷風感冒睇醫生、洗牙或住院的「醫療保險」,在《僱傭條例》下並非強制性福利。提供與否,純粹是僱主任擇的「加分項」。 迷思二:公司單方面取消醫保,犯法嗎? 這取決於你入職時簽署的僱傭合約及員工手冊的具體字眼。 面對醫保被Cut,僱員可以點做? 如果你不幸遇上公司削減福利,先別慌張,建議按以下 3 步保障自己: 第一步:立即翻查僱傭合約及員工手冊 「口同鼻拗」是沒有用的,一切以白紙黑字為準。找出你入職時簽署的合約,仔細閱讀關於醫療保險的章節,確認福利性質(合約承諾還是酌情福利),以及公司是否擁有單方面修改合約的權限。 第二步:積極與公司溝通 / 集體反映 有時候,公司削減福利可能是因為保費大幅增加或短期資金周轉問題。建議透過員工代表或部門主管,向 HR 及管理層表達員工的憂慮。你們可以嘗試提出替代方案,例如: 第三步:尋求外援或法律協助 如果你發現公司的做法屬於「情況 A(明顯違約)」,而公司態度強硬拒絕溝通,你可以考慮採取進一步行動: 公司的福利政策往往反映了企業文化。如果公司在沒有充分溝通下隨意向員工福利開刀,或許也是一個警號,讓你要重新思考這間公司是否值得長遠發展。隨時上 CPJobs 更新你的履歷,發掘更重視員工福祉的好僱主吧!

【職場心理學】「你真係好好人」——職場做好人真係心好累

老同事叫你幫手cover,你答「OK」。 明明唔係你份工嘅報告,你做咗。上司突然笑住話「你最好㗎啦,幫吓手囉」,你又答應。有人要請假,組長望向你,你點頭。 你係個 office 入面從來唔拒絕人嗰個。你覺得自己有責任心、識大體、係個好員工。 但係年尾績效 review,你加人工加得最少。升職機會,留俾叫得出聲嗰個。你問上司,佢笑住話:「你知㗎啦,你咁好,去邊都得㗎。」 你笑住話:「係囉,謝謝你。」 返到廁所,你對住鏡望咗自己好耐。 有時喺輔導室,我見到唔少「職場好人」,坐低之後說嘅第一句係:「我唔明白,我咁做嘢,點解佢哋反而唔尊重我?」 你以為係你唔夠醒目、唔識爭取?唔係嘅。喺心理學入面,呢個叫「取悅行為」(Fawn Response)——一種透過持續迎合他人需求、避免任何衝突,令自己感到安全的應對模式(Walker, 2013)。成因可以係童年時學會「唔惹事就唔會出問題」,可以係職場上曾經開口卻被打壓,久而久之,「唔拒絕人」就成為你保護自己嘅方式。 問題係,喺職場裡面,你嘅「好」好快會成為別人嘅理所當然。你嘅邊界越模糊,別人越唔需要尊重你。 就好似一間便利店,二十四小時唔閂門——客人梗係唔會珍惜,因為你永遠都喺度。但係一間有排隊人龍嘅名店,有指定營業時間、要預訂,人哋反而珍而重之。你嘅時間同能量,係有價值嘅。邊界唔係叫你唔合作,係讓人知道你嘅付出值得被尊重。 一個小練習:今個禮拜,選一件「唔係我份工、但我成日照答應」嘅事,試吓回應:「我而家手頭有嘢要處理,唔太方便。」唔需要解釋多,唔需要道歉。然後停一停,覺察一下自己嘅感受——係唔舒服,還是有一種陌生嘅輕鬆? 第一次唔容易。但係你值得有人尊重你嘅邊界——包括你自己尊重你自己。 「係」係一份禮物,喺你真心想話「係」嗰時候先有意義。 今日,如果有人又嚟「你咁好,幫吓手囉」——停一停,深呼吸,覺察一下你心裡嘅第一個感受。 你唔係唔友善。而係你都係一個有需要、有限度嘅人。呢個人值得你善待。 參考資料Walker, P.
