If you’re sending out rsums and not getting many calls to interview, there’s a good chance that your rsum is the problem. If you’re like most people, your rsum could use some work – and like most people, you’re probably not sure where to start.

如果投了簡歷卻沒接到多少面試電話，很可能是簡歷有問題。如果你也是這些人中的一員，你的簡歷可以做些修改——你可能不知道從哪里開始改。

But you probably don’t need to start from scratch. You can often significantlyimprove your rsum by just making a handful of changes. Here are five small changes you can make that will have a big impact.

不過你不需要從頭修改。只做些小改變通常就能大大改善簡歷。下面的五處修改會讓簡歷有很好效果。

1. Get rid of the objective.Rsum objectives never help and often hurt. Not only do they feel outdated at this point, but they're all about what you want, rather than what the employer wants. Your rsum should be focused on showing your experience, skills and accomplishments. It’s not the place to talk about what you’re seeking in your next job.

1. 不要寫求職目標。在簡歷上寫求職目標從來沒用，還會有壞處。它們不僅落伍過時，而且都是有關(guān)你想要的而不是雇主想要的東西。簡歷應該集中展現(xiàn)你的經(jīng)歷、技能和成就。不應該商量你在下一份工作中想得到什么。

2. Focus on work accomplishments, not job duties.If you’re like most job seekers, your rsum lists what you were responsible for at each job you held, but doesn't explain what you actually achieved there. Rewriting to focus on accomplishments will make it more likely to catch a hiring manager’s eye. For instance, get rid of lines like “managed email list” and replace them with lines like “increased email subscribersby 20 percent in six months” – in other words, something that explains how you performed, not just what your job was.

2. 關(guān)注工作成就，而不是工作職責。你的簡歷是不是和大多數(shù)求職者一樣只寫每份工作的職責，卻沒寫結(jié)果？寫好成就是關(guān)鍵，這樣更有可能抓住招聘經(jīng)理的眼球。例如，別寫像“整理郵件”之類的話，用“6個月內(nèi)郵件用戶增加了20%”代替——換句話說，寫清楚你的工作表現(xiàn)，而不只是寫工作內(nèi)容。

3. Get rid of big blocks of text. If your rsum is filled with large blocks of text – as opposed to bullet points – there’s a good chance that you’re putting hiring managers to sleep. They want to quickly skimthe first time they look at your rsum, and big blocks of text make that difficult and make most hiring managers’ eyes glazeover. They’ll pay more attention and absorb more information about you if your rsum is arranged in bullet points rather than paragraphs.

3. 不要有大段文字。如果你的簡歷都是大段文字——而不是按要點寫——招聘經(jīng)理很可能沒興趣看了。他們看簡歷時想快速瀏覽，大段文字看起來困難，他們眼睛都要看花了。如果你的簡歷排出了要點而不是有很多段落，他們會看得更仔細，也能了解到更多信息。

4. Shorten it. If your rsum is multiple pages, you might be dilutingthe impact of its contents. With a shorter rsum, you’ll ensure that in an initial quick scan, the hiring manager’s eyes fall on the most important things. Plus, long rsums can make you come across as someone who can’t edit and doesn’t know what information is essential and what’s less important. As a general rule, your rsum shouldn’t be longer than two pages, maximum. (And if you’re a recent grad, it should only be one page, because you haven’t yet had enough work experience to justifya second one.)

4. 減少頁數(shù)。如果你的簡歷有很多頁，你可能把不重要的內(nèi)容也寫上去了。短小精悍的簡歷能確保招聘經(jīng)理快速掃視時能看到最重要的東西。另外，長簡歷會讓別人覺得你不會編輯文檔，也不會區(qū)分信息的重要程度。一般來說，簡歷最多不能超過兩頁。（如果你是應屆畢業(yè)生，應該一頁就夠了，因為你還沒有足夠的工作經(jīng)驗去寫第二頁。）

5. Give yourself permission to remove things that don’t strengthenyour candidacy.You don’t need three lines explaining boring job duties – especially if these responsibilities are going to be implied by your title. Similarly, you don’t need to include that summer job from eight years ago, that job you did for three weeks that didn’t work out or every skill you can think of. Your rsum is a marketing document, not a comprehensivelisting of everything about you; include the things that strengthen your candidacy and pare down the rest.

5. 刪掉不夠有競爭力的內(nèi)容。你不需要用三行字說明無聊的工作職責——尤其是這些責任可以從職位名稱中看出來的時候。同樣，你不需要寫八年前的暑期工作，以及做了三個星期卻沒學到什么技能的工作。你的簡歷是用來推銷自己的，不要像寫清單一樣把每件事都列下來，請寫能加強競爭力和能把別人比下去的事情吧。
