As a fresh graduate, the company mainly depends on your potential, so you should tell your employer on your resume that you are a potential person and can bring infinite hope to his company.
The basic contents of resume should include academic experience, important club experience and part-time work experience, professional skills, specialties and language ability, personality characteristics and evaluation, job hunting intention and simple career development plan, contact information and remarks. In your work intention, you should express your strong motivation to get this job, which can include your views on this job, what work experience and ability you have to benefit the company, what you hope to get from this job, and what contribution you can bring to the company, that is, your value.
At the same time, the resume must "highlight the personality and be different". Learn to use quantitative language to describe your skills, job responsibilities and achievements, because numbers will greatly enhance the readability of your resume.
Resume should be updated at any time and revised after every interview and written test. Because every review will have a deeper understanding of your learning gains, personality, specialties and so on. Generally speaking, the whole process of choosing a job is a process of self-excavation, and you must know what the employer needs.
Matters needing attention in sending resumes by e-mail
Never send your resume as an attachment; Write a resume according to the requirements of the employer; Send a job search email with a clear theme with a private mailbox; When filling in the information on the recruitment website, add a short special self-report in the name column.
Words that should be avoided as much as possible in your resume.
I am very interested in …: Attach your resume for your reference; Comments involving personal feelings and emotions have nothing to do with business, so it is better to say less; I am full of energy; Please check your resume; Salary can be negotiated; Looking forward to your reply; Please accept my resume; My professional knowledge can be applied to … etc.
Words that should be omitted as much as possible in your resume.
Omit the date and put it in the cover letter; Omit race, religion, etc. Unless the purpose of your resume is to seek a career in this field; Ignore your own shortcomings, failures or past events that you are ashamed to talk about; It is unwise to omit salary requirements and confirm your salary requirements before the interview, which may underestimate your potential; Omit the recommendation letter, the employer will only be interested in you before the interview, but any valuable recommendation letter should be provided.
Special requirements of foreign companies in various countries for resumes
In English-speaking countries, you should clearly write down your job hunting goal at the beginning of your resume, and attach some accurate information, specific time and specific figures that reflect your specific ability. Don't exceed one page in your resume.
In the United States, you can attach various certificates to prove your ability, but it must be related to the job you are applying for; Write down your abilities and work experience in as much detail as possible.
Finally, you'd better write at the end of your resume: I will call the recruiter at some point to determine whether it is possible to get an interview. At the same time, don't forget to write to the interviewer after the interview and thank him for receiving you. They attach great importance to the way candidates do things and apply for jobs. For them, all these can show your ability to work.
In European countries, your age and experience are very important. At the same time, there are some special habits in some European countries. For example, 90% of enterprises in France, Italy and Germany have a popular handwriting test. If your cover letter is not handwritten, some companies will even refuse to read it.
In Japan, you must obey the rules. At the beginning of your resume, you'd better write down your social skills, personality characteristics, social activities and sports specialties, especially those group activities, and highlight the details of your college education to the greatest extent. Resume must be written in Japanese, not English. Moreover, it is best to write resumes in chronological order. Experience is not important to the Japanese. What should be emphasized is your spirit of cooperation rather than your leadership. You should try to be polite.
When submitting a resume to a foreign company, you should always consider it from the standpoint of the person reading the resume. Your resume should be easy to understand and culturally acceptable. Be sure to use your experience in your resume to prove to the human resources manager that you will easily integrate into this company. For example, if you are interested in a position in IBM, you must make people feel that you are stable, rigorous and cooperative; If you are interested in a position in Microsoft, you might as well publicize your personality.
If you want to send your resume online, you'd better make it in PDF format, so there won't be garbled and mistakes. You can use some popular communication symbols on the Internet. It's best to proofread your answers to interview questions offline before sending them to the employer. Like ordinary letters, grammatical or spelling mistakes will be a great disadvantage. Pay attention to "tone" and be as steady and polite as the interviewer in the company. When mailing letters, you should also pay attention to the section, and fill in the location or number of the application on the envelope according to the requirements of the other party to maximize the convenience of the employer. Avoid using company stationery, envelope reply or prepaid printed stationery. This image of encroaching on the company's interests is especially taboo in the west.
Principle:
The four principles that resume writing should follow are conciseness, truthfulness, pertinence and highlighting key points.
Simplicity is the life of a resume. The text of the resume is concise and to the point, with strong generality. Omitting meaningless lists and avoiding vague, ambiguous or inconsistent words fully embodies professionalism. Truth means not telling lies and leaving no hidden dangers for future work. Targeted and focused, that is, the content of the resume should be written around the position and personal expertise, and the details should be appropriate, otherwise it will give people the impression that the employer is confused or too similar.
Length:
No more than two A4 pages, fresh graduates only need one A4 page.
Key points:
The first part, personal information and contact information
Needless to say, your name, age and so on. If you are party member, please specify;
Unless you apply for public relations, you don't need to specify height and weight;
Unless specifically requested, photos are completely unnecessary, especially artistic photos;
It is best to set up a special job search mailbox. The advantage is that the sender can write your name.
The second part, job intention or job position.
It seems that many resumes lack this part. Please note that this greatly increases the risk that your resume will be deleted. Especially when the other company is recruiting many positions at the same time.
The third part, educational experience and obtaining certificate.
Sort in reverse chronological order, with the nearest ranking first, and so on;
Educational experience can be traced back to high school;
Unless you are an engineering major and apply for an engineer position, you don't have to write a subject unless you need to write a related professional course;
If your college average score is above 85 or GPA is very high, please consider looking for your report card;
Show your English level. It is particularly good to apply for foreign companies with TOEFL IELTS scores, but you need to explain that you will not go abroad in the near future during the interview;
If you have won a national award, please indicate;
If you have served as a student union minister or a similar position, you can explain it as appropriate, but don't describe yourself, especially in leadership, so as not to make people laugh;
If you publish articles in newspapers or academic journals above the provincial level, you can explain them as appropriate, and be careful not to list all the published articles and stop here;
If you have participated in scientific research projects and monographs, please indicate-provided that your name is on the cover of the monograph or in the preface and postscript;
Certificates are expensive but not expensive, just write about them. Some certificates, such as China Mandarin X, should not be written at any time.
Don't write certificates and awards unrelated to work.
The fourth part, work experience.
Sort in reverse chronological order, with the nearest ranking first, and so on;
Be careful not to have water, write in chronological order, and don't leave blank in the middle. For example, two workshops are free for half a year, which does not mean that it is taboo;
If it's a student. Please indicate the work and internship;
Work experience mainly describes which department you are in that unit, what position you are in, what work you are responsible for and how effective your work is;
When writing work experience, be objective and concise, seek truth from facts, speak with facts-numbers or nouns, not adjectives, and don't be wordy and student-like (write short sentences. Don't start with "I", start with a verb (such as "service"), avoid expressing self-righteous feelings, and avoid summing up yourself (such as "I have learned ……");
If you are internship in a well-known institution, it is best to have a personnel certificate and a letter of recommendation;
Don't write the following internships, such as tutoring, work-study programs, McDonald's cashier, etc.
The work experience mentioned should be related to the position you are applying for, and don't write anything useless.
The fifth part is self-evaluation.
You can write or not;
Be neither humble nor supercilious, explain the problem;
Don't shout slogans all over the sky. If you don't believe your own evaluation, it is estimated that the other party will not believe it.
Don't list your own advantages subjectively. Carefully read the advertisement of the recruiter and write one by one according to the requirements of the employer, with a clear aim; Use plain, credible and not exaggerated words, and avoid using words such as "familiar with the Internet and related knowledge" and "proficient in English";
Advantages should be proved by concrete examples, otherwise it is not credible;
Don't mention your hobbies, ambitions and feelings about the company.
There is no other nonsense.
The sixth part is the cover letter.
It is best to have a cover letter before your resume. If you can't do it within 300 words, you don't have to write it.
Part VII, Others
Some job advertisements will ask you to indicate the source of information, don't forget.
Typesetting:
Nowadays, cover letters are usually sent by e-mail. Of course, large job-hunting websites such as 5 1job have their own special ways, but I still suggest that you send an email with your own mailbox, which is convenient, flexible and targeted. Pay attention to revise or write your resume according to different jobs. The success rate of applying for different jobs with the same resume is almost zero, which has nothing to do with whether the individual is excellent or not-the application is to suit the position, not to accommodate it.
Please indicate your name and position in the title of the cover letter, and don't send it as an attachment.
Don't issue academic certificates, award certificates, etc. Attach your resume at the same time;
Send it to your mailbox first to see the typesetting effect before sending it officially.
If you print your resume, avoid color, multiple artistic fonts and typography confusion, and don't use the cover.
The layout is very organized, and it is especially good to use bullets and numbers to arrange the layout.
The printed resume page is clean and tidy, with no stains or damage and clear handwriting.
