求职信的作用
可以帮助你推销自己,其目的是为了找到一份理想的工作。信中应清楚地表明你所要申请的工作、你的能力及你能做些什么,形象地描述你的资格和取得的成就,把你自己以最佳的方式显现在未来的雇主面前。
点评
专业的英文CV跟CL的制作都是用Palatino Linotype字体,由于新浪博客没有这种字体,只能用Verdana代替,正文用斜体。以下是我的CL,基本的个人信息位于正文的右上角,包括姓名,联系方式等,为了符合阅读的方便性,电话号码要断开,例如:135-6015-XXXX,方便人家拨打通知面试的时候。正文我习惯分成四段,严格来说,只可以是三段,有点类似托福的作文。我的第一段是寒暄段,说明一下自己从哪里获得招聘信息跟自己的兴趣;第二段结合公司要求概述一下自己的能力与专业水平;第三段概述选择该公司的原因与考虑;第四段表达感谢与等待回复。听过Mckinsey的全球副总裁说过在筛选Candidate的简历的时候,首先看的是CL,CL只看第一段,如果第一段有价值才继续看第二段,如果第二段有价值,才看CV,最后确定Interview的shortlist.
