現(xiàn)在工作環(huán)境競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈，有些好的工作崗位都有許多人爭(zhēng)相投簡(jiǎn)歷。然而，對(duì)方公司的HR可不一定會(huì)逐個(gè)逐個(gè)研究求職者的簡(jiǎn)歷。所以你的優(yōu)秀簡(jiǎn)歷難免會(huì)被淹沒(méi)在大海之中。

　　現(xiàn)在問(wèn)題來(lái)了，拿什么拯救你，我的簡(jiǎn)歷?

　　所有的簡(jiǎn)歷乍看起來(lái)外表都長(zhǎng)得一樣，唯一能讓HR對(duì)它們另眼相看的，卻是另一樣?xùn)|西——隨著簡(jiǎn)歷一起投遞的求職信，俗稱cover letter。

　　千萬(wàn)別小看求職信，你對(duì)一個(gè)崗位的誠(chéng)意有幾分，全在這信上了。因?yàn)楹?jiǎn)歷是死的，你不能對(duì)其進(jìn)行任何“二次創(chuàng)作”，但你卻可以通過(guò)求職信來(lái)說(shuō)簡(jiǎn)歷沒(méi)有說(shuō)的東西。然而，許多人都習(xí)慣于復(fù)制求職信，比如在某招聘網(wǎng)站上寫完一封求職信后，在之后所有的簡(jiǎn)歷投遞中都用這封信，連對(duì)對(duì)方的稱呼都不變。這樣對(duì)方公司能感受到誠(chéng)意嗎?

　　求職信，最起碼要根據(jù)不同的公司進(jìn)行修改。而且，對(duì)于外企公司來(lái)說(shuō)，最好也準(zhǔn)備一封英文的求職信。不過(guò)這英文信該怎么寫?不用困惑，這東西不難寫。今天華生為你來(lái)分享英文求職信寫作必知的9個(gè)要點(diǎn)，看看你需要怎樣做吧?

　　1. Length: A letter of application should be no more than one page long.

　　或許你會(huì)覺(jué)得越全面地向HR展示自己越好，寫起求職信就像寫自傳一樣，這其實(shí)是最令人頭疼的。誰(shuí)會(huì)想在忙碌的時(shí)候靜下心來(lái)閱讀一份很長(zhǎng)很長(zhǎng)很長(zhǎng)的信?HR多半會(huì)直接選擇把這封信跳過(guò)。

　　2. Format: A letter of application should be single-spaced with a space between each paragraph. Use about 1" margins and align your text to the left, which is the standard alignment for most documents.

　　就好像上面說(shuō)的一樣，密密麻麻的字讓人看了就煩心，所以求職信一定要最求干凈、簡(jiǎn)潔，讓人一目了然，順暢閱讀。

　　3. Font: Use a traditional font such as Times New Roman, Arial, or Calibri. The font size should be between 10 and 12 points.

　　求職信不需要花哨，使用三種英文標(biāo)準(zhǔn)字體均可，就好像中文一般都會(huì)用宋體或微軟雅黑一樣，看著也會(huì)比較舒服。也不要把字體弄太大，這樣看起來(lái)不會(huì)醒目多少，卻會(huì)難看許多。

　　4. Header: A letter of application should begin with both you and the employer's contact information (name, address, phone number, email) followed by the date. If this is an email rather than an actual letter, include your contact information at the end of the letter, after your signature.

　　寫英文信件時(shí)最需要注意的是中英文信件的格式不同。另外，稱呼老外時(shí)需要使用“稱謂+姓氏”的格式，比如“Dear Mr./Ms. Last Name.”，Mr和Ms后面可別寫名字了。如果你不知道對(duì)方叫什么，可以用“Dear Hiring Manager.”的說(shuō)法來(lái)代替。

　　5. Introduction: Begin by stating what job you are applying for. Explain where you heard about the job, particularly if you heard about it from a contact associated with the company. Briefly mention how your skills and experience match the company and/or position; this will give the employer a preview of the rest of your letter.

　　自我介紹是正文開頭必不可少的，也是禮貌的一種體現(xiàn)。不過(guò)就像華生提醒過(guò)的那樣，千萬(wàn)不要長(zhǎng)篇累牘地寫“自傳”，要抓住自己學(xué)習(xí)和職業(yè)生涯中的精彩亮點(diǎn)簡(jiǎn)明扼要地寫。

　　6. Body: In a paragraph or two, explain why you are interested in the job and why you make an excellent candidate for the position. Mention specific qualifications listed in the job posting, and explain how you meet those qualifications. Do not simply restate your resume, but provide specific examples that demonstrate your abilities. You can either write about these specific examples in complete sentences or in a bulleted format.
