現(xiàn)在越來(lái)越多的求職朋友對(duì)求職信的寫作越來(lái)越看重,也知道了求職信在得到面試的過(guò)程中扮有多么重要的分量了,因此,英文求職信的寫作也被提上了簡(jiǎn)歷制作的一部分,據(jù)統(tǒng)計(jì),一封好的求職信 運(yùn)用簡(jiǎn)介流暢語(yǔ)言概述求職愿望、對(duì)職位的理解及任職資歷,表達(dá)自信,吸引對(duì)方仔細(xì)閱讀你的簡(jiǎn)歷。
好的求職信配合簡(jiǎn)歷,能顯著增加獲得面試的機(jī)會(huì); 但是有些人對(duì)英文求職信的寫作技巧和閱讀習(xí)性掌握并不好,以致畫蛇添足,弄巧成拙,F(xiàn)在就 我們的 經(jīng)驗(yàn),談?wù)勗趺磳懹⑽那舐毿,?dāng)然我們的也并非完美,給需要的朋友一二借鑒而已。
在語(yǔ)言風(fēng)格上要平實(shí)、簡(jiǎn)潔。切忌用夸張、比喻的手法引起誤解,而要給招聘者留下誠(chéng)懇、務(wù)實(shí)的印象。招聘者也沒(méi)有時(shí)間閱讀過(guò)長(zhǎng)的信件,所以整篇書信要簡(jiǎn)短,能控制在一頁(yè)16開紙上為最好。
在句子結(jié)構(gòu)上要多用長(zhǎng)句。長(zhǎng)句善于表達(dá)復(fù)雜事物,一方面有利于準(zhǔn)確表達(dá)求職者的意圖,容易給招聘者留下思維條理清晰,邏輯性強(qiáng)的印象;另一方面,將大量信息融合到一個(gè)句子中,很容易抓住招聘者的注意力,迫使其一口氣讀完,從而留下深刻印象。
從語(yǔ)氣上,求職信應(yīng)寫得誠(chéng)懇而積極,表達(dá)出自己對(duì)該單位的向往之情。切忌傲慢或過(guò)于自謙。
從內(nèi)容上看,英文求職信一般要包括七個(gè)步驟:
1. introducing candidate (介紹候選身份)
在這一部分中,求職者要介紹自己的求職意向和個(gè)人情況,包括受教育、專業(yè)、工作履歷等方面的情況。
2. establishing credential (確定任職憑證)
在這部分,求職者要表明自己為什么和憑什么選擇這份工作,即自己的專業(yè)或目前從事的工作類型。
3. offering incentives (鼓勵(lì)接受申請(qǐng))
這一步是招聘者能否給應(yīng)聘者面試機(jī)會(huì)的關(guān)鍵。應(yīng)聘者可以從能力、經(jīng)驗(yàn)、個(gè)人專長(zhǎng)、性格優(yōu)勢(shì)等各方面進(jìn)行闡述,鼓勵(lì)招聘者給自己一個(gè)面試的機(jī)會(huì)。
4. enclosing document (提及附加材料)
應(yīng)聘往往會(huì)被要求或自愿隨信附加一些證明文件,比如各種證書和近期照片。最好再附上一個(gè)已寫好的回郵信封。以便盡快得到回音。
5. using pressure tactics(采用施壓策略)
這是為了獲得面試機(jī)會(huì)而使用的手段。但這一步對(duì)求職者的要求很高,必須對(duì)自己的實(shí)力有充分的自信,還要了解招聘者的薄弱環(huán)節(jié)在什么地方,才能積極有效的施加壓力。否者這種手段的效果只能適得其反。
6. soliciting response(請(qǐng)求答復(fù))
7. ending politely(禮貌收尾)
本人就以下面兩封求職信為例從以上個(gè)方面進(jìn)行比較,讓讀者有一個(gè)更直觀的認(rèn)識(shí)。

這是一名大專畢業(yè)生請(qǐng)我修改的一封求職信。在這篇求職信中我們能看到該生的禮貌,但讀到的信息只有:求職意向、個(gè)人身份、專業(yè),其它什么也沒(méi)有。在上面提及的七個(gè)語(yǔ)步中只能找到1、6、7 的內(nèi)容。最重要的第2和第3步只用了抽象的形容詞:qualified ,energetic, confident 來(lái)完成。這樣的求職信不會(huì)給招聘者留下任何印象。而且該文中幾乎都是短句,給人感覺(jué)作者文句駕馭能力不強(qiáng),不通暢。所以這是一封失敗的求職信。這也反映了在我們英語(yǔ)教學(xué)中對(duì)學(xué)生實(shí)用性能力培養(yǎng)的欠缺。
