According to Ric Edelman, author of Ordinary People, Extraordinary Wealth, the purpose of a résumé is not to get a job, it's to get an interview—you will get the job. A résumé should not list all your skills, but rather tease the employer with your achievements. These are ways to make your résumé stand out. 《平凡人,非凡财富》一书的作者Ric Edelman认为简历的目的不是获得工作而是获得面试的机会;然后你才能获得工作。简历不该列举所有技能,而是要用成绩来“引诱”面试官。 下面的方法可以让你的简历脱颖而出。3 f4 t/ a! Q& ~) G! y$ U9 ]* u
