　　让你的简历被注意到的12招

　　Gone are the days of simply mailing your resume, receiving a call, shaking hands at the interview, and agreeing on a start date for that new job. The Internet has taken over the recruiting landscape, and everyone is required to submita resume online. While that brings greater efficiency to the process for employers, it can be awfully¹ maddening for job seekers. But it doesn't have to be that way if you know how to navigatethe system.

　　如今，像那种“简单地投简历，然后接到面试电话，在面试上和面试官握手打招呼，约定开始工作的时间”的找工作流程已经渐行渐远了。网络已经占据了招聘的市场，要求每个人都在网上提交简历。虽然这样给雇主带来了很高的效率，但是对求职者来说却可能是让人发狂的痛苦过程。但其实如果你知道如何操作这个系统的话也就不会感觉如此痛苦了。

　　Consider these 12 tips before pressing "submit" to send your resume:

　　在发送你的简历之前参考以下12个小贴士：

　　1. Search job boards and the websites of employers that appeal to you. Print out the job postings that you're interested in pursuing before you apply.

　　搜索那些吸引你的雇主的工作网站。在你申请之前将那些吸引你的职位的工作要求打印出来。

　　2. Use a highlighter to mark the keywords and industry language used to describe the requirements and responsibilities.

　　在职位要求和工作责任中将关键词和专业术语标识出来。

　　3. Compare those words and phrases to the language that appears in your current resume.

　　将这些词语和你简历中的进行对比。

　　4. Figure out how and where to add the most relevant keywords to your resume, assuming you have the specific knowledge, skills, and experience. Applicant² tracking systems will search for keyword matches -- the more matches, the better, which often determines if a recruiter opts³ to view your resume.

　　想一想，如果你掌握了专业知识，并具有专业技能和相关经验，你应该怎样在简历中加入这些相关的关键词，又该加在哪里。求职者跟踪系统会搜索符合的关键词，所以你简历中符合的关键词越多越好，这通常会影响到一位招聘人员是否会看你的简历。

　　5. Once you're confident that your resume reflects a strong match, go ahead and submit that targeted resume online.

　　一旦你确信你的简历与要申请的职位非常符合，那就在线发送出去吧。

　　6. If the system requests a cover letter, write a short one that expresses why you're a strong match and why you'd like to join the organization. This is a chance to toutyour research on the role.

　　如果该求职系统要求求职信的话，那就写一封简短的求职信介绍为什么你非常符合他们的条件，表达你加入该公司的意愿。这是一个展示你对该职位做了调查研究的机会。

　　7. Never submit a generic⁴, one-size-fits-all resume or cover letter. If you really want the position, you'll customizeall documents for each job.

　　永远不要发送一封大众化的通用简历或求职信。如果你确实想应聘到该职位的话，你就要为每个职位定制你的求职文件。

　　8. Once you apply, get to work to find an internal referral to make a personal introduction. Here's how:

　　一旦你发出简历之后，就要开始找一位该公司的内部介绍人帮你做个人介绍，步骤如下：
