如何撰写求职 RESUME(1)
-------------------------
Resume is a marketing tool which acts as a door opener and allows an employer to assess your qualifications quickly in the prescreening process before interviews. Most resumes are initially read for 15 seconds or less (3-5 seconds if unsolicited). Help the readers form mental pictures of you and your activities as they look for key words and phrases. Among 10s, 100s, or 1000s of resumes, the employer needs to ascertain the benefits you are offering them, based on your past accomplishments. Document the results you achieved by including numbers, e.g., supervised 50 volunteers; reduced waste material by 30%; managed $100,000 project, coming in on budget and 1 week ahead of schedule.
If your resumes seem to be taking you down a path similar to your last job(s) and you want to change direction, that is quite easily accomplished. You probably have explained your past jobs in terms of the duties and responsibilities that characterized that work. You need to interpret or reframe those experiences to meet the demands of the new work you would like to have.
The resume is a more concise presentation of credentials than a curriculum vitae which is prepared for a teaching/research position in a university or for inclusion in an application package for graduate school.
Focus
It is important to tailor your qualifications to the job for which you are applying. To do this, review your SELF ASSESSMENT worksheets and the DESCRIPTION OF THE JOB information you have obtained.
Before starting a draft of your resume, summarize your points on this Preparing for the Resume and Job Interview worksheet. (来源：英语麦当劳－英语快餐EnglishCN.com)
