Your CV is the single most important document in your job application. This video will teach you how to write a compelling CV.
你的履歷是申請工作最為重要的文件。這部影片將會教你如何寫出一份有說服力的履歷。
One thing is certain: There is no such thing as the perfect CV. That's because the contents of the ideal CV are determined by the position and the person who is applying. Employers use the information in your CV to decide how suitable you are for the position. That means you should tailor the information in your CV to each position you apply for. Start by asking yourself this question: What do I want the employer to think of me after reading my CV? Once you know that, you'll know what to include, remove, or emphasize.
有一件事是肯定的:並沒有什麼完美的履歷。那是因為理想履歷的內容取決於工作和求職者。企業主利用你履歷中的資料來定奪你有多適合那個職位。那代表你應該為你申請的每個職位量身打造履歷內容。先從問自己這個問題開始:我想要企業主看完我的履歷後對我這個人有什麼想法?一旦你知道後,你就會明白要把什麼寫進去、什麼刪掉或是多加著墨。

Here's an example CV belonging to Lisa Hanssen. We'll be going through this CV to discuss what information you should present in each section.
這裡有一份屬於 Lisa Hanssen 的履歷範本。我們將檢閱這份履歷來探討你在每個部份應該呈現哪些資訊。
The first section should contain your personal information, such as your date of birth and contact details. Whether you should include a picture of yourself depends on the position you're applying for and the company offering it. Just make sure you look professional in your photo.
第一部份應該包含你的個人資料,像是生日和詳細聯絡方式。是否附上自己的照片要看你申請的工作和提供該職位的公司。確保自己在照片中顯得專業。
The second section is your personal profile. In just a few sentences, you describe who you are, what you have to offer, and what your ambitions are.
第二部份是你的個人簡介。你要在短短幾句內描述你這個人、能做出的貢獻和你的抱負。
The third section, education, is where you show your academic accomplishments from high school graduation onwards. Since your most recent school or academic program is the most relevant, start there and work your way back. In no more than three bullet points, you can list your most significant results, such a high average grade, your most relevant courses, your thesis, or any minors you have completed.
第三部份,教育,這是你展示高中畢業以來學業成就的地方。因為距離現在最近的學校或系所的相關性最大,因此從那裡起頭然後往回寫。在不超過三個項目符號的情況下,你可以列出你最重要的成果,像是出色的平均成績、最相關的課程、你的論文,或你修完的任何副修科目。
The work experience section should contain your internships and any previous relevant work. Clearly state your job title, responsibilities, and primary tasks. The more specific you can be about what you did, the better. Sort your bullet points by relevance with the most relevant at the top.
工作經歷的部分應該包含你的實習經驗以及過去任何相關工作經驗。清楚列出你的職稱、職責和主要工作內容。你可以把之前的工作描述得越具體越好。用關聯性來整理項目符號,最相關的放最上面。
Your extracurricular activities matter a great deal in the Netherlands. Describe what you do outside of school. This tells the employer a lot about you. What do you enjoy? What skills have you developed outside of your studies? What are your interests? You can list as many activities as you like so long as they show that you possess skills your employer will find relevant. Again, use bullet points to indicate what you've done and learned.
你的課外活動在荷蘭是很重要的一部份。描述你在校外從事的活動。這會讓企業主了解你許多。你喜歡什麼?你在課外培養了哪些技能?你的興趣是什麼?你想列出多少活動都行,只要它們顯示出你擁有企業主會覺得有用的技能。再一次,利用項目符號標出你做過或學到的事。
If you possess skills that are relevant for the position but don't quite fit in any of the previous categories, add them in a separate skill section. You can include anything you're good at or know a lot about, include things like a second language, training programs you've completed, software you know how to use, and any specialist or unusual skills. Keep in mind whether a given skill has any significance to the position you're applying for.
如果你具備和職位相關的技能,但它們卻不太符合前面幾項分類的話,將它們加在獨立出來的技能欄位。你可以把你擅長或很了解的任何事物放進來,包括像第二語言、完成的培訓課程、會使用的軟體,以及任何專業或特殊技能。切記,提到的技能要你對申請的職位有意義。
The final section, interests and additional information, is an opportunity for you to provide some personal background to help the employer understand what kind of person you are.
Consider carefully what you choose to share.
最後一部份,興趣和額外資訊,這是個讓你提供一些個人背景的機會,幫助企業主認識你是怎樣的人。審慎考慮你選擇要分享的資訊。
The best visual design for your CV depends on what industry you're in. The decision whether to put your CV in the "yes" or the "no" pile is usually made in the first 30 seconds. That's why you should bear two things in mind. One, it should be easy for the employer to skim through your CV. And two, the most important information should stand out from the rest. Underline important information and put it in bold. But try to keep the overall style consistent.
履歷的視覺設計怎樣最好要看你所處的產業。看不看你的履歷通常在前三十秒就決定了。那就是為什麼你應該記住兩件事。一、履歷應該要讓企業主容易瀏覽。二、最重要的資訊應該比其它內容更顯眼。在重要資訊下方劃線或使用粗體字。不過盡量維持整體風格一致。
