要想成功地找到一份自己满意的工作应当从准备一份简历开始。下面的对话将告诉你如何准备一份简历。
Owen:Hi, I am sure glad to see you.
Henry:Are you kidding me? Why do you say so?
Owen:You know, I'm about to graduate and I have to look for a job as soon as possible. But I haven’t the faintest idea of how to go about finding a job.
Henry:OK. Let me see where to start.
Owen:I guess first I should prepare a resume, right?
Henry:Sure. You should include your name, address and phone number in your resume.
Owen:Then what else should I put into my resume？
Henry:Your job objectives, of course. In other words, what kind of job are you searching for?
Owen:I got it. Then I should mention my educating background and working experience, should I?
Henry:Yes. And don't forget to list them by date. Besides, you should begin with the most recent and then move backward.
Owen:I see. Is that all there is to it?
Henry:No, it's also necessary to list a few related interests that are in some way connected to the jobs you want to take.
Owen:Oh, good point. You mean here I should show off my special skills and talents to impress the boss.
Henry:You said it. At last you’d better attach a list of references to your resume.
Owen:That's easy.
Henry:And one more thing, smile widely.

欧文：嗨，见到你真是太高兴了。
亨利：逗我玩吧？为什么那么说？
欧文：你知道，我快要毕业了，而我得尽快找份工作。但我对如何着手找工作一无所知。
亨利：好吧。让我想想从哪开始。
欧文：我猜首先我应该准备一份简历，是不是？
亨利：没错。你应该在简历中写出你的姓名、地址和电话号码。
欧文：还有什么应该写进简历呢？
亨利：当然还有你的工作目标。换句话说，就是你要找什么样的工作？
欧文：我明白了。然后我还应该提及我的教育背景和工作经验，是不是？
亨利：是的。而且别忘了按时间顺序。此外，你应该从最近的信息写起，然后往回进行。
欧文：知道了。就这些了吗？
亨利：不，还有必要列举一下和你想做的工作相关的兴趣爱好。
欧文：噢，有道理。你是说我应该突出我的兴趣和爱好，好让老板留住我。
亨利：对了，最后你最好给你的简历附上推荐人。
欧文：那简单。
亨利：还有一点，微笑！
