如何讓履歷獲得青睞

履歷是個人的營銷文件,可向潛在僱主推銷個人技能。而研究顯示,招聘人員瀏覽每份履歷平均時間僅約20秒,因此必須讓對方一眼就認為您是最佳人選。讓履歷獲得青睞的關鍵如下: 內容符合僱主要求如果寫明個人技能與職位需求明確相符,能讓招聘人員輕易判斷。與此同時明確展現自己具備僱主要求的相關技能、經驗與特質;強調個人優點與職位的關聯性,並刪除無關內容;在履歷中納入與職務內容相似的關鍵詞,以便加深招聘人員對您的印象。 強調成果突顯過往工作經驗及主要職責固然重要,但重點並非只是列出日常的工作內容。履歷應著重於個人與眾不同的成果,展現自己對組織的貢獻,例如節省經費或時間、超越目標、解決問題、改善流程、吸引新客戶等,最好能列出各項量化數據、比例或金額。 用語肯定履歷的語調應保持熱忱、樂觀與專業。優先寫出自身最明確、與職位最有關聯的優點,善用容易留下深刻印象的詞語,如「已完成」、「開發出」、「順利管控」、「第一」、「最佳」 、「最高」等。運用這些鮮明的詞語,坦率呈現工作成果,有助於提高履歷的說服力與特質。

Taking on extra tasks at work can be tough, but it can also add value to your CV

If your boss asks you to take on an extra task that isn’t part of your job description, you can view it in one of two ways: as an opportunity to learn a new skill and gain valuable practical experience, or with exasperation that you are now taking on extra work.
