2012-12-11来源:21st英语网

关系户

Apart from searching online, looking at classified ads, and contacting employment agencies, there are alternative ways of finding a job: using personal contacts, or networking.
求职,除了可以依靠在线搜索、分类广告以及职业介绍所之外、还有很多种方法可以尝试:譬如利用人际关系。

As hordes of fresh grads enter the job market every year, many of them ask their parents or relatives to do them a favor by using their connections.
每年随着大批的应届毕业生涌入就业市场,很多人都会求助于父母和亲属们的关系网。

Although many get a job this way, career experts warn that resorting to such a method cannot ensure a promising future.
尽管很多人都是托关系来找工作,但职场专家提醒道依靠这种方式并不能许你一个美好的前景。

Miao Lixiao, 25, who graduated in Chinese literature from Guangxi University, knows this all too well. His parents found him a job as a counter clerk at the Bank of China, but he doesn’t like it at all.
说道托关系找工作,毕业于广西大学中文系,25岁的苗立萧(音译)可谓深谙其中之道。父母把他安排进中国银行做一名柜面业务员,当他一点都不喜欢这份工作。

“Working for a bank is boring and there is a lot of pressure. The competition is so fierce that it is difficult to get along with colleagues,” said Miao, who has been with the company for three years but was never promoted.
“在银行工作很无聊,压力很大。由于竞争激烈,很难和同事相处。”苗立萧已经在这家银行工作了3年时间了,但一直都没有得到晋升。
