Making a good first impression is the key to landing any job, and that starts with your resume. Learn how to properly send it out and land that job.
留下好的初次印象是找到工作的关键,而这要从简历开始。要学会如何恰当地投递简历并找到工作。
Step 1: Send a cover letter
Send a cover letter with the resume. Be sure to tailor both the resume and cover letter to each specific job you’re applying for.
发送简历时带一封附信。要确保简历和附信都要适合你申请的工作职位。
Step 2: Find a contact
Find the name of a specific person at the company who you can address your resume to. This will ensure that it ends up on their desk or in their inbox rather floating around the office.
找联系人
找到在所申请公司的某人的名字来投递简历。这会使简历最终送到他们的桌子上或收件箱中而不是在办公室周围“游荡”。
Step 3: Inquire about a method
If it’s not clear from the job ad, inquire with the company about which method of sending they prefer — e-mail, fax, or mail.
询问方法
如果工作招聘广告说得并不清楚,询问公司他们喜欢那种简历投递方法——电子邮件,传真或是信件。
Step 4: Send in various formats
Send the resume as a PDF attachment. There are many different word processors and not all are compatible with each format. The job posting might note which format is preferred.
要以多种格式发出简历
投简历时要将简历以pdf附属格式发出。有多种文字处理软件,但并不是所有的软件对每种格式都兼容。工作招聘上可能会指出要以那种格式发送简历。
Tip:Try copying and pasting your resume into the body of the e-mail if you don’t know which format to go with.
小贴士:如果你不知道要用何种格式发送,把简历内容拷贝并粘贴到信件主体内容中。
Step 5: Follow up
Follow up on the resume with a phone call or e-mail after about a week if you haven’t heard anything. Good luck!
跟踪简历
如果一周后没有收到任何回复,可以打电话或发邮件来跟踪下。祝你好运!
