一份出色的Resume，是向外企求職的關鍵之一。不了解有關的常識和程式，不花費相當的心思來展示，以有純正嫻熟的英文功底，決不能獲得單位的青睞。在一大堆錯誤百出、英文表達能力低劣或平庸，毫無針對性和創造性的Resume中，你的那份若能讓人眼睛一亮，成功的機會必將大大增加，以下我試著結合一個具體的例子給出說明和評述。
Balance Sheet：
基本方法選取適當的工作后，必須看清招聘廣告上所列出的每項要求，再將自己的學歷、能力與興趣逐一與之比較，作一張balance sheet.
例如，一則關于marketing management trainee和job requirement是這樣寫的：
We are looking for a competent person to fill the captioned position：
University graduate majors in Marketing Management. Prepared to develop career in the commercial field
-outgoing personality
-Able to communicate with different levels
-Good knowledge in PC operations
-Proficiency in written and spoken English/Mandarin
則你相應地考慮自己的qualification的選擇和表述，如你可寫（與上列各項對應）：
-University graduate with major in Marketing
-Having actively participated in Business club"s activities and learned accounting and management
-Good in communication with people and like a lot of out door activities know how to tackle with people from all walks of life
-Skillful in operating Words,Excel,Lotus1-2-3,etc
-Fluent in English and studied advanced level of Mandarin <一份resume中令招聘者相當感興趣的一項內容，善加措詞是必不可忽視的要務。
剛畢業，何來工作經驗？其實，客下讀書時的兼職、實習、實踐，以至所曾參加的一些課外活動－協助助出版學校刊物、舉辦活動，展覽、宣傳......都可算是工作經驗、不過，表達起來要有針對性地展開，列出那些與所找工作有關連的項目重點介紹，必要時更可使用summary的方式，給招聘者深入的了解。
我手頭這份材料的相關表這實在簡陋呆板：
1996/7-1996/8 General Clerk, IBM
1995/7-1995/8 Account clerks, Manley Toy Trading
1994/6-1994/8Salesgirl,Esprit.
倘能換一種表述如：
Three years of job experience in different positions have offered me opportunities to understand different job aspects.
-As a General Clerk(IBM),Accounts clerk (Manley Toy Trading),I have learned how to prepare purchasing orders, place orders, handle accounting mattery, check voucher,......also(Salesgirl, Esprin)developing the technique of sellina, serving and stocking.
豈非能更好地突出個人工作經驗，吸引招聘者的注意力！
Job Objective通常，一般求職者只會在履歷表開端簡單地寫上所應征的職位－"Position Applied: Management Trainee"或"I am appling for......"其實，若懂得利用這小小空間寫出自己的事業目標（job objective），能顯示出你對該工作的熱誠及憧憬，能令招聘者對你加倍留意。
比如這個不錯的例子job objective To begin as a Marketing Management Trainee, with opportunity to advance to executive level and contribute to the development of firm.
其實，這位外企人士所談的關于準備RESUME的技巧，完全可以應用到中文簡歷上來。各位讀者可以嘗試一下。
