A How's your job search going?

你的工作找得怎么樣了?

B I only started looking for a job a few days ago.

我?guī)滋烨安砰_(kāi)始找工作.

A Have you finished compiling your resume?

簡(jiǎn)歷寫(xiě)好沒(méi)?

B Yes, I was precise with every word in my resume?

寫(xiě)好了,里面的每一個(gè)詞都是我精心挑選的.

A That's good. Don't forget to design the format. An attractive fromat is as important as the content.

很好.別忘了設(shè)計(jì)一下板式,吸引人的板式和內(nèi)容一樣重要.

B Absolutely,I've highlighted all my strengths and the resume is clear and easy to read.

沒(méi)錯(cuò),我強(qiáng)調(diào)了我所有的優(yōu)點(diǎn),簡(jiǎn)歷清晰易讀.

A Good. How about your cover letter?

不錯(cuò).求職信寫(xiě)得怎么樣了?

B A cover letter? I've never thought about that. Won't a CV do for my job application?

求職信?我從來(lái)沒(méi)有想過(guò)要寫(xiě)這個(gè).找工作有份簡(jiǎn)歷難道還不夠嗎?

A No, a CV is not enough. You should also attach it with a cover letter. Don't overlook it. You're faced with fierce competition in the job market. If your cover letter cannot stand out in the pile of cover letters, your resume may never see the light of day.

不行,只有簡(jiǎn)歷是不夠的,你應(yīng)該附上一封求職信,別大意了.現(xiàn)在就業(yè)市場(chǎng)競(jìng)爭(zhēng)激烈,如果你的求職信不能從一堆求職信中脫穎而出,可能根本沒(méi)人讀你的簡(jiǎn)歷.

B Sounds reasonable.Even if I'm the right one for the job, many people are applying for the same vacancy at the same time, so I should try my best to catch the Human Resources manager's attention.

恩.有道理.即使我是合適的人選,有那么多人都在同時(shí)申請(qǐng)這一個(gè)職位,我也得盡力吸引人事經(jīng)理的注意力.

A Yes, you're right. All your preparation efforts are to help you land a job interview.

你說(shuō)的對(duì),你所做的所有準(zhǔn)備都是幫你獲得面試的機(jī)會(huì).

B Got it. I'll start right now.

明白了,我馬上就寫(xiě).
