能获得面试机会的求职信写作建议

2014-03-20来源:usnews
4. Stay away from hyperbole. Statements like "I’m the best candidate for the job” and “You won’t find a candidate better qualified than me” come across as naive. You have no way of knowing what the rest of the candidate pool looks like, and only the hiring manager is equipped to assess your candidacy against that pool. Keep the focus on why you’d excel at the job without trying to put down your competition. Your cover letter shouldn’t sound like an infomercial.
4. 不要夸大。像“我是这份工作的最佳人选”和“你找不到比我更合格的候选人”之类的话只能说明你太天真了。你不可能知道其他求职者的条件如何,而且只有招聘经理能评价你有多合适。把注意力放在你为什么擅长这份工作而不是看低竞争对手。你的求职信不该像电视导购那么夸张。

5. Be conversational. Job seekers sometimes feel that a cover letter should be as formal as possible, but the best cover letters are written in a conversational, engaging tone. Of course, don’t be overly casual; don’t use slang, and pay careful attention to things like grammar and spelling. But your tone and the language should be conversational and warm and engaging.
5. 语气别太正式。求职者有时觉得求职信应该尽可能正式,但最好的求职信的语气都是比较随意、有代入感的。当然,不要太过随意,不要用俚语,要仔细注意语法和拼写之类的细节。但是你的语气和语言应该随意且温暖。

6. Don’t use a form letter. Hiring managers can tell the difference between a letter that you’re sending with all your applications and a letter that you wrote specifically for this job. If your letter works for all the jobs you're applying to, that’s a sign that it needs to be more customized.
6. 不要用相同模板。招聘经理能区分你的求职信是发给所有申请公司还是专门为某个职位写的。如果你的求职信对所有申请的工作都适用,这是在告诉你要“量身定制”了。
