An executive resume should include personal information, to indicate the many dimensions to your life and interests.
There is no way to predict the personal biases1 of the individuals who will read your resume. The first and primary way that an employer uses a resume is to screen candidates out. Don't give them any reason to screen you out. Board memberships, related volunteer work, and professional associations should often be included but religious affiliations2, family status, country club memberships, and hobbies have no place on an executive resume. The only exception to this is when you are preparing a resume specifically written to appeal to a single individual who you are absolutely certain would be fascinated in your piloting license3 or passion for golf. Even then, be careful, you never know where your resume will be passed. However, if you are certain that your personal information will help you to break the ice and build rapport4, you may have a valid5 reason for including it.

简历应该介绍自己的个人信息,表现出自己生活中各个方面以及兴趣爱好。
谁都无法预知读简历的人在看了简历以后是什么反应。但是招聘人读简历的第一个和最基本的目的是从一堆简历中找出候选人。不要让他们第一轮就把你淘汰掉啊。那么在你的简历中相关工作,工作中的人事关系,专业知识都应该在简历中提到,但是宗教信仰,家庭地位等等则要求不是很高,除非你明确地知道对方对你的私事很感兴趣。另外,如果你认为个人信息可以冰释冷酷的局面,而建立起一种和谐的关系,那你就应该介绍自己的个人信息了。
