濃縮的都是精華

A resume should be only one, or at the most, two pages.
簡(jiǎn)歷一頁(yè)就夠了，多了也不要超過(guò)兩張。
While it is true that you have only a few seconds to capture a reader's
attention and it is also true that with each additional page you reduce your
chances of your resume being read thoroughly, for most executives it is
unrealistic and nearly impossible to compress many years of experience into one
or two pages. When attempted, important achievements are left out to make room
for a full chronology of the career history and education. What is left is a
boring listing of companies, positions, and dates that are guaranteed to turn
off the reader and land your resume in the circular file.
因?yàn)槟阒挥卸潭痰膸酌腌姷臅r(shí)間來(lái)獲取閱讀者的注意，因此附頁(yè)越多，完整閱讀你的簡(jiǎn)歷的可能性就越小。對(duì)許多行政人員來(lái)說(shuō)，把多年的經(jīng)驗(yàn)壓縮成一頁(yè)或者兩頁(yè)紙是不現(xiàn)實(shí)的，也幾乎是不可能的。那么重大的成績(jī)就要為列舉多年的工作經(jīng)歷和教育騰出空位。而剩下的就是枯燥無(wú)味的公司，職位和日期的羅列，但是這些恰恰避免了你的簡(jiǎn)歷被丟進(jìn)紙簍的厄運(yùn)。
A better strategy is to write your resume with exactly as much detail and
description as is needed to persuasively convince the reader that you are the
ideal candidate to solve his or her problems - to compel the reader to pick up
the phone and call you for an interview. While this is sometimes a difficult
balance to strike, you should review and edit your resume with a very
discriminating eye toward reducing unnecessary wordiness. Every word in your
resume should have a purpose. Use succinct, dynamic, action-oriented language to
convey your ability to add value to the reader's company and you will capture
and hold attention through three or even more
pages.
寫(xiě)簡(jiǎn)歷一個(gè)比較好的策略就是盡可能地把細(xì)節(jié)和描述恰到好處地寫(xiě)出來(lái)，最大地說(shuō)服讀者認(rèn)為你就是這個(gè)職位的最佳人選，能夠讓他不得不給你打電話來(lái)通知一個(gè)面試。當(dāng)然這樣做是很困難的，你需要從不同角度重新審視編輯你的簡(jiǎn)歷，盡量減少不必要的廢話，確保簡(jiǎn)歷中的每一句話都有一個(gè)目的。使用簡(jiǎn)潔，有動(dòng)力的，能起到作用的語(yǔ)言來(lái)表達(dá)你能為其公司做出貢獻(xiàn)的能力，那么你就能比較容易地從很多簡(jiǎn)歷中脫穎而出。
