【工作英語(yǔ)】2017年求職，你準(zhǔn)備好了嗎？.

　　2013 you don’t have to wait , and you can take steps to prepare for your job search. Following are fi ve tips to get you started:

　　在2013 年，不必等待，你現(xiàn)在就可以著手做好求職的準(zhǔn)備。可以從下列五點(diǎn)開(kāi)始：

　　1、Update your resume. The most essential element of any job search is an up-to-date resume. If you haven’t touched your resume in a while, dust it off and make sure it highlights your most recent skills, areas of responsibility and accomplishments. Taking a little time over the course of several weeks to work on this document is better than rushing to complete your resume all at once, especially if you need to use it in a hurry. Keep in mind that this draft of your resume will serve as a starting point. You’ll want to customize it to each position for which you apply.

　　1、更新你的簡(jiǎn)歷。對(duì)于任何求職來(lái)說(shuō)，最基本的要素是一份最新的簡(jiǎn)歷。如果你已經(jīng)有一段時(shí)間沒(méi)有動(dòng)過(guò)你的簡(jiǎn)歷，那么趕快撣去簡(jiǎn)歷上的灰塵，并確保把你最新的技能、職責(zé)范圍和成就突出呈現(xiàn)在簡(jiǎn)歷上。在幾個(gè)星期之內(nèi)花工夫準(zhǔn)備好這個(gè)文件要比到時(shí)候匆忙趕出來(lái)要好得多，尤其是當(dāng)你有急用的時(shí)候。要記住，這份簡(jiǎn)歷稿將是你的起跑點(diǎn)，你要為申請(qǐng)不同的職位分別對(duì)簡(jiǎn)歷做相應(yīng)的修改。

　　2、Keep your profile current. Your professional profile on networking Web sites such as LinkedIn and Facebook serves as an informal resume for recruiters2, who are more frequently using these sites to locate talented candidates. Make sure your profi le is complete and current. Also, consider taking advantage of the extra features many of these sites offer. Adding a few to your profi le can help you stand out from the crowd.

　　2、及時(shí)更新簡(jiǎn)介。在互聯(lián)網(wǎng)網(wǎng)站上，比如在LinkedIn 和Facebook，對(duì)于要經(jīng)常在這些網(wǎng)站上尋找優(yōu)秀人才的招聘人員來(lái)說(shuō)，你在網(wǎng)上的職業(yè)簡(jiǎn)介可以是一份非正式的簡(jiǎn)歷。確保你的簡(jiǎn)介是完整的、新的。并且，要設(shè)法利用許多網(wǎng)站提供的額外特色服務(wù)，在你的簡(jiǎn)介上增加一些有特色的東西可以讓你更醒目。

　　3、Put your best digital footprint forward. In a competitive job market, a polished professional reputation — both online and off — can make or break someone’s chances of landing a coveted3 position. As a result, it’s important to get a sense of your digital footprint, or the presence you have on the Web. Building a strong reputation online, or remaking a poor one, can take some time. Start by searching for yourself on several search engines. If you discover unflattering information, remove it or ask the person who posted the information to do the same. You also should adjust your privacy settings on the Web to ensure personal details or photos are available only to the people you select.

　　3、以最好的數(shù)字足跡前行。在競(jìng)爭(zhēng)的就業(yè)市場(chǎng)，專業(yè)聲譽(yù)——無(wú)論是在線上還是線下——能要么促成要么毀滅一個(gè)人得到所覬覦的職位機(jī)會(huì)。因此，你的數(shù)字足跡，或者說(shuō)，你在網(wǎng)絡(luò)上露面的情況，顯得非常重要。在網(wǎng)上建立起牢固的聲譽(yù)，或是改造不好的聲譽(yù)，要花費(fèi)一些時(shí)間。在一些搜索引擎上開(kāi)始著手搜尋自己，如果發(fā)現(xiàn)有不良信息，刪除它，或是讓發(fā)這些信息的人刪除它。你同樣應(yīng)調(diào)整在網(wǎng)站上的隱私設(shè)置，以確保你的個(gè)人詳細(xì)資料或照片只能讓你所選定的人看到。

　　4、Make new friends. The best time to expand your network of business connections is when you don’t need a job. Reaching out to new contacts now allows you to nurture4 the relationships. Maintain regular communication with your contacts and offer your assistance as necessary.

　　4、結(jié)識(shí)新朋友。擴(kuò)大在網(wǎng)絡(luò)上業(yè)務(wù)聯(lián)系的最好時(shí)機(jī)是在你還不需要找工作的時(shí)候。主動(dòng)結(jié)交新朋友可以使你培養(yǎng)新的關(guān)系。與你的社會(huì)關(guān)系保持經(jīng)常的交流, 在需要的時(shí)候, 給他們提供一些幫助。

　　5、Prepare your rerences. You’ll need several people with whom you’ve worked to sing your praises to prospective employers when your search begins. So why not start identifying and reaching out to these contacts now?

　　Although you can’t control the economy, you don’t have to be a passive observer. By preparing for your entry into the job market now, you’ll be ready to take advantage of new opportunities as soon as they arise.

　　5、準(zhǔn)備好你的舉薦人。當(dāng)你開(kāi)始求職時(shí)，你需要幾個(gè)與你曾經(jīng)共事的人在未來(lái)的雇主面前贊美你。因此，現(xiàn)在為什么不開(kāi)始甄選這些人并主動(dòng)與他們聯(lián)系呢?

　　雖然你不能控制經(jīng)濟(jì)形勢(shì)，但是你也不需要作一位消極的觀望者?，F(xiàn)在通過(guò)做好進(jìn)入就業(yè)市場(chǎng)的準(zhǔn)備，一旦機(jī)會(huì)來(lái)了，你就能立即抓住。
