【摘要】:威廉希尔app 整理了写封极具说服力的求职信可不是件简单的事情。又想吸引别人的注意,又不能引起反感,这可需要费点脑子。求职信里避免以下内容写进求职信当中。
1.Assertions That You Are the Ideal Candidate
1.强调你是理想员工
Don't ever say you are the ideal candidate for the job.
永远别说你是这个职位的理想人选。
Here's a tactic you can use instead: Restate primary qualifications of the job and show how your past experience and skill set fits "hand in glove" with the requirements. You ask for ____; I offer ___.
你可以这样:重述职位的主要需求并展示你过去的经验如何能适用于新的工作之中,满足新的工作要求。你们需要...我可以提供...。
Statements Indicating That You Are a “Hard Worker”
不要说你是个努力的员工
Career strategist Nicole Darling tells job seekers to eliminate references to being a "hard worker." My experience tells me that those who claim to be hard workers either 1) often yielding below-average results or 2) understate the intellect and creativity they contributed in their roles, attributing success solely to effort and long hours.
职业策略师妮可-达琳对那些求职者们说不要总表示自己是“努力的员工”我的经验告诉我那些自称努力的员工们,要么就是1)成果达不到预期要求;2)低估能力以及创造力在工作中的重要性,把成功等价于努力和长时间的工作。
Nicole also recommends avoiding positive but overly used words such as "team player, motivated, excellent communication skills."
妮可还建议减少使用那些看似积极且使用十分频繁的词汇,如“队友,有积极性的,高超的交流技巧”。
2.Anything Non-Personalized
2.非个性化的东西
Get the name of the hiring manager or recruiter to personalize each letter. Likewise, use the company’s name and identifying details (location, industry, etc.) rather than referencing “the company”or “your industry" in a bland letter.
要获知面试官的名字。在求职信中不要总说“贵公司”或“贵行业”而要使用公司具体的名称,以及一些具体信息(如位置,产业等)。
3.Bungled Wording
3.拼写错误
A fast-paced company is not the same thing as a "face paced," or even a "fast paste" company. The abbreviation for Assistant is Asst. Please don't ever forget that. When you drop the "t" from "Asst" you aren't offering much to be proud of.
快速发展的公司是用短语“fast-paced”,不要把fast拼成face,或者“fast paste”(快速粘贴)的公司。助理的缩写是Asst.千万别忘了。要是少写了个“t",这个所指可不是什么光荣的东西哦。
4.A Precise Time of Follow Up
4.后续追踪要守时
Nicole also advises against saying, for example, that you will “follow up with a call on August 1st at 11:00 a.m.” when you won’t actually make that call. Even if your intentions are good, your availability may change, preventing you from being a person of your word.
妮可还说很多求职者经常写到会“在8月1号中午11点进行后续电话交流”。当你没有打那个电话时,即使你的本意是好的,日程有可能改变了,但也要做一个守信用的人。
