致宅家学生:大学暑期工的明智十选

2014-08-10来源:Lynn
6.Look for something that provides amazing benefits.
6.寻找可以带来非同寻常收益的工作。

There are jobs out there that provide benefits right when you start or even if you work part-time. They may not be your top choice of what to do, but any job provides money and experience that you can use to your advantage when looking for jobs after you graduate -- and jobs with good benefits can make your life as a student a lot easier. (Health insurance, anyone?)
有些工作一开始就能给你带来收益,有些即便只是兼职也赚头不小。它们也许不在你的首选之列,但是任何可以带来金钱和经验的工作,在你毕业求职时都可以利用。而且那些可以带给你不错收益的工作都会使你的学生生活更加轻松(健康保险,有人尝试吗?)

7.Find something that teaches you the skills you want.
7.找一份能让你学习到想要技能的工作。

You may know you want to open your own business after you graduate, but your summer job is working at a non-profit community organization. Instead of looking at the job itself, look at what skills you'll gain while working there, like budgeting, marketing, customer service and administrative skills.
也许你计划毕业之后自己创业,但是你暑假是为非营利性组织工作的。不要只关注这项工作本身,要关注从这个工作中你可以学到什么,比如说,预算、市场营销、服务顾客和行政管理技巧。

8.Work at a place that provides the time and pay to do what you really want.
8.选择能够给予你充分时间和金钱去做你真正想做的事的工作。

Are you interested in having an internship -- but your financial situation requires that you have a paying job? Do you want to do research on a topic over the summer but don't have the funding? Find a job that pays the bills and allows you to pursue your other interests during the time you're not on the clock.
你是否对一份实习工作感兴趣,但是你的经济状况却要求你去找一份挣钱的工作?你是否想在暑假研究一项课题,却苦于没有资金?找一份可以挣钱,同时又能留给自己足够的时间来追求自己兴趣的工作吧。

9.Get a job that simply lets you have fun and explore a hobby.
9.找一份单纯能使你乐在其中而且能培养兴趣的工作。

Are you, for example, a Sociology major but you love to cook? Getting a job that allows you to explore your hobbies, like cooking, can make you an interesting job candidate after you graduate. (After all, no one wants to hire boring employees, right?!) Look for a summer job that lets you pursue your cocurricular interests while learning important skills you can use later.
比如说,你的专业是社会学,但是你热爱厨艺。找一份可以使你培养爱好的工作,就像做饭,可以让你在毕业之后成为一个有趣的应聘者(毕竟没人想要雇佣一个无聊的人,不是吗?)。寻找一份可以使你追求兴趣,同时也能学到日后有用的重要技能的工作吧。

10.Find something that demonstrates your intellectual curiosity.
10.选择一份可以展示你求知欲的工作。

College is a great time to explore things that, while perhaps not specifically related to your career choice, are still interesting and once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. So go do an architectural dig in Greece, help organize the archives at a famous library, or work as an artist's assistant. Jobs like these can help you earn the money you'll need while also showing future employers that you're an intellectually curious, hard-working employee.
大学时期是用来探索的好时光,那些探索也许与你的职业选择无关,但却是有趣且千载难逢的机遇。所以去发掘希腊建筑的乐趣吧,到有名的博物馆志愿整理档案吧,或者成为艺术家的助手吧。从这类工作中,你不仅可以挣钱,同时也在向未来的雇主展示你是一个充满探索精神又努力工作的雇员。
