You might be perfect for the job, but if your resume isn't, you could lose out. A top-notch English resume will set you apart from the competition. Just follow these tips for writing a winning resume and get the job!

回顾你的过去

第一步，列出你过去的工作及学历资格。然后，写下所有你所记得的事情包括你过去的公司资料、证照、学历、你的工作职别及内容，还有具体的完成事项。

Review your history.

First, make a list of your previous jobs and educational qualifications. Then, write down everything you can remember including the company information, certificates, degrees, your job titles and duties, and specific accomplishments².

订定你的目标

目标就是目的，很多的雇主都想要知道员工们在申请这份工作的目的。这可以帮助他们决定你是否为适合的人选。在履历的一开始就是"Objective"写下简单扼要的声明。例如："To work in a dynamic marketing³ department."

State your objective.

An objective is a goal, and many employers want to know your employment goal when you apply to work for them. It helps them determine if you're a good match. Include a heading at the beginning of your resume called "Objective" and then write a short statement. Example: "To work in a dynamic marketing department."

是工作内容，还是成就呢？

或许你有很多要说，但是只给你一点点的空间，写一份标准的履历表允许句子缩写架构。可以去掉句子的主词(e.g. I, my manager)，代名词(my/mine,his/hers)，及有的时候甚至是定冠词(the, a)。如果你在一个句子里头同时放入不只一个的成就，你可以用"and"来取代分号。例如："I led an important project and my manager gave me an award"就可以写成 "Led key project; awarded by manager."

Duties or accomplishments?

A duty is an assigned task. An accomplishment¹ is an achievement - a positive result of your efforts. Employers like to know what your tasks were in past jobs, but they're more interested in what you achieved. So when describing past jobs, brag⁴ a little! Cite specific accomplishments. Example: One of your duties was doing staff scheduling, and you solved a big scheduling problem. Write, "Solved scheduling conflict."

更改你的语法

因为你有很多要说，但是只有一点点的空间，写一份标准的履历表允许句子缩写架构。可以去掉句子的主词(e.g. I, my manager)、代名词(my/mine, his/hers)及有的时候是定冠词(the, a)。如果你在一个句子里头同时放入不只一个的成就，你可以使用分号来取代"and"。例如："I led an important project and my manager gave me an award"可以写成"Led key project; awarded by manager.

Adjust your grammar.

Since you have lots to say, but little space, resume writing standards allow for abbreviated⁵ sentence construction. Leave out sentence subjects (e.g. I, my manager), possessive pronouns (my/mine, his/hers), and sometimes even articles (the, a). If you're listing more than one accomplishment in a sentence you can replace "and" with a semicolon. Example: "I led an important project and my manager gave me an award" would become "Led key project; awarded by manager."

使用主动动词

主动动词表示一个具体的行动，例如：solved, managed, initiated⁶, accomplished⁷。被动动词包括：am, was, have及had。在履历里，主动动词使你听起来是积极有活力的人-这这种类型的人才会想雇用！例如："Managed a team of 20 employees"比"Was in charge of 20 employees."更有力量些。

Use action verbs.

Action verbs show a specific action, e.g. solved, managed, initiated, accomplished. Examples of passive verbs are am, was, have and had. In a resume, action verbs make you sound like a motivated, energetic person - just the type someone would want to hire! Example: "Managed a team of 20 employees" sounds more powerful than "Was in charge of 20 employees."
