入门小贴士

As you build your resume, here are some tips to keep in mind.  

技巧1:头脑风暴

Brainstorm a list of experiences and skills that you might want to include in a resume. 考虑你的学术背景, 有偿和志愿工作或实习, 研究项目, 奖, 特殊技能. 一旦你编制了你的清单, you can start organizing this information to the position or industry that you are targeting.

技巧2:收集职业信息

After you have completed your personal inventory and have developed your career goals, you will then want to research these career areas and those employers that are active in them. For each potential position you need to know the qualifications, 职责, 以及工作所需的技能, and any special talents or personal characteristics sought by the employer.

技巧3:组织你的简历

你的名字, address, 电话号码, and email address are centered at the top of the page or placed to one side. Do not use headings such as "name," "telephone," "resume." This information is self-evident and the headings are unnecessary.

  • 职业目标

    如果你陈述了职业目标, 应该是简短的, 简明扼要，只针对目前的工作, 不是未来的职业规划. This category should be used only when your job objective is clear or definite.

  • 教育

    Your educational history should be placed near or at the top of the page if it is your most important qualification. 本标题下包括学校名称, 度, 主要, minor or concentration and dates received or expected graduation.

  • 经验

    这些领域可以被命名为“工作经历”,或“专业经验”,”“志愿者经历,”  Internship 经验" or "Related 经验.” In describing your work experience, use action words which will show your strengths and skills.

  • 专业活动及荣誉/奖项

    This category can include club and professional memberships, 奖, 荣誉, 志愿者的经历, 以及社区服务.

  • 技能和成就

    Skills included should be hard skills, technical experience, or knowledge of another language. Academic or work accomplishments can be included.

技巧4:选择格式

There is no single prescribed resume format, but t 他有两种基本的简历风格   是按时间顺序和功能排列的. Some resumes use features of both and are called combination resumes.

  • 按时间顺序排列的简历
    • This is the most widely used and familiar format. The experience section is listed in chronological order, starting with your most recent experience. It is most effective when the job target is in line with your experience and academic background.
    • If your most relevant experience for a particular career field was not your most recent, it can be featured by creating two "experience" sections. These can be called "Related 经验" and "Other Work 经验." By separating the information into two categories, you can maintain a chronological format while emphasizing your most pertinent skills.
  • 功能恢复
    • The functional resume highlights skills and accomplishments and de-emphasizes specific job titles, 组织, 以及雇佣日期. Functional resumes are appropriate if you have held a number of unrelated jobs, the position that you are seeking is outside the academic field, or there are significant gaps in your work history.
