1. Bad English: A recruiter is looking for an excuse not to consider your application, and bad grammar gives him an excuse to put your application in the special file marked the bin. A badly written CV shows you are disinterested or that you just can’t spell. Either way, it’s fatal. Check it yourself, and get someone else to go over your CV – it is easy to miss mistakes in your own copy.

1. 英語(yǔ)水平不高：招聘官總會(huì)挑你簡(jiǎn)歷的毛病，糟糕的語(yǔ)法無(wú)疑給他機(jī)會(huì)篩掉你的簡(jiǎn)歷。簡(jiǎn)歷寫的不好體現(xiàn)出你對(duì)目標(biāo)職位不是特別感興趣，或者你的拼寫能力不夠。不管是哪一種理由都會(huì)對(duì)你的求職之路產(chǎn)生致命的影響。你可以自己先檢查一遍，然后讓別人再看一下——有時(shí)自己犯的錯(cuò)誤自身不容易發(fā)現(xiàn)。

2. Just the facts: Have you provided relevant contact details – have you entered the right numbers?

2. 檢查個(gè)人信息：你留聯(lián)系方式了嗎？號(hào)碼有沒有寫錯(cuò)？

3. Don’t be passive: Can you solve problems, will you walk into your job running? If you can – great – you’re what your employee is looking for. The question is: have you communicated this with your CV?

3. 不要妄自菲薄：你能處理問題嗎？你能適應(yīng)工作嗎？如果你的回答時(shí)肯定的——那你就是雇主們正在尋找的人選。但是，這些優(yōu)勢(shì)在你的簡(jiǎn)歷中都體現(xiàn)出來(lái)了么？

4. Don’t be vague: Details help. State what you have achieved, with action verbs, and use numbers where possible.

4. 不說套話：具體的描述可以幫助你達(dá)到這一點(diǎn)。用動(dòng)詞開頭把你的成就都寫在簡(jiǎn)歷中，在必要之處用數(shù)字說明。

5. Customisation counts: One size does not fill all. Read the job specification carefully. Look for key words in the text the reveal the kind of personality being looked for, and what the employer expects the right candidate to be able to deliver.

5. 為應(yīng)聘職位量身定制簡(jiǎn)歷：對(duì)所有職位都使用同一版本的簡(jiǎn)歷會(huì)很沒有針對(duì)性。仔細(xì)閱讀職位要求，在關(guān)鍵字中找出職位需要的性格特質(zhì)，并且分析雇主希望的理想雇員是怎樣的。

6. Don’t be dull: No one wants to know your duties ; they want to hear your achievements.

6. 不死板沉悶：沒人想知道你的責(zé)任感有多強(qiáng)，他們想知道你獲得了哪些成就。

7. Don’t be flabby: Tell your story – but don’t make your CV too long, or cut it down so much it says nothing at all.

7. 精簡(jiǎn)至上：在簡(jiǎn)歷中描述你自己——但是別讓簡(jiǎn)歷太長(zhǎng)，也別太短以至于別人什么都沒了解到。

8. Design: Make your CV pleasing to the eye. How your CV is presented tells a story about you. Are you visually aware, do you care enough about the job to present the information well? Your CV is sending signals to your employer. Make sure they are the right ones.

8. 注意排版：讓你的簡(jiǎn)歷看起來(lái)整潔美觀。簡(jiǎn)歷的排版能從側(cè)面體現(xiàn)出的性格特質(zhì)。你是不是注重視覺上的美感、有沒有提供關(guān)于應(yīng)聘職位的個(gè)人相關(guān)信息？你的簡(jiǎn)歷是給雇主提供信息的，所以必須確保你已都將相關(guān)優(yōu)勢(shì)列出。

9. Don’t put it off: If you see a job you’re interested in, don’t delay putting together the application – do it the same day and send it the same day.

9. 別猶豫：如果你看到感興趣的職位，應(yīng)該馬上投出簡(jiǎn)歷——當(dāng)天寫當(dāng)天投。
