尼克马上就要大学毕业了,他正犯愁不知道该如何找工作,他的好友米娅告诉他可以网上求职。
Nick: Oh, Mia, I'll be graduating from college soon, but I haven't found a job yet.
Mia: You can try posting your job seeking information online.
Nick: Good idea! But I don't know how to set up and send an online resume.
Mia: Be patient, I'll offer you seven steps to successful online resume writing:
1. Set your page width to 60 characters.
2. If you have used bullets, replace them with hyphens.
3. Take out all tabs, and use your spacebar instead.
4. Delete any long leaders like “...”. Use short lines.
5. If you have written your resume using word-processing software like Word or Word perfect, save an additional version in text format.
6. Edit the text to make sure that it is text-only at this point.
7. Cut and paste the text onto an E-mail page and send it to the website of the job agency.
Nick: It sounds very easy.
Mia: Yes, it isn't difficult. Happy hunting!
Nick: Thank you!

尼克:噢,亲爱的米娅,我要大学毕业了,可还没有找到工作。
米娅:你可以试试将求职信息发布到网上。
尼克:好主意!但是我不知道怎样写并发送网上个人履历。
米娅:耐心点儿,我可以告诉你成功制作网上个人履历的7个步骤:
1. 把你的页面宽度设为60个字符。
2. 如果你用了项目符号,把它们换成连字符。
3. 去掉所有标记,用间隔线代替。
4. 删除所有省略号,比如“……”。用短线。
5. 如果你用Word或Word Perfect这样的文字处理软件写的履历,那么再另外以文本格式保存一份。
6. 编辑文件,保证是文本格式。
7. 把文本文件剪切,粘贴到电子邮件页面上,然后发送给人才市场网站。
尼克:听起来很容易。
米娅:是的,不难。祝你面试顺利。
尼克:谢谢!
