職場英語：校園招聘會上必勝求職5大絕招

　　摘要：招聘會是讓你鍛煉如何向招聘經(jīng)理展示自我的絕佳平臺，下面有幾條建議讓你在校招上表現(xiàn)得更好。

　　The No. 1 way to make a career fair work for you is to make sure you go. Often seniors are so busy that they skip it, which is a mistake. Juniors should go too, because companies often look for interns at these events.

　　要想讓招聘會發(fā)揮作用，第一件事就是一定要去參加。畢業(yè)班學(xué)生通常非常忙，所以，他們會放棄參加校園招聘會。這其實是錯誤的做法。三年級學(xué)生也應(yīng)該參加，因為通會有許多公司通過類似活動招聘實習(xí)生。

　　Even if the list of employers scheduled to attend doesn't wow you, go anyway. You never know who you'll meet there, and who might be helpful to you down the road. A job fair is also a great place to practice presenting yourself to hiring managers.

　　就算招聘會上的企業(yè)單位提不起你的興趣，你也要去參加。你永遠(yuǎn)不知道自己會在哪里遇到誰，誰會成為你未來職業(yè)發(fā)展道路上的貴人。此外，招聘會也是讓你鍛煉如何向招聘經(jīng)理展示自我的絕佳平臺。

　　A few suggestions for making the most of the event:

　　下面有幾條建議讓你在校招上表現(xiàn)得更好：

　　1. Research the employers who interest you. Pay special attention to the careers section of each company's website, and think about which opportunities there would best fit your strengths and interests.

　　1. 調(diào)查你感興趣的雇主。應(yīng)該特別關(guān)注每家公司網(wǎng)站上的工作機(jī)會，仔細(xì)考慮什么樣的機(jī)會既符合你的興趣，又能發(fā)揮自己的優(yōu)勢。

　　2. Prepare your "elevator speech." This is a 20-to-30-second sound bite that sums up your talents and skills. If you aren't sure what those are, think back to successes you've had so far -- including any leadership role you've played in an extracurricular activity (and yes, sports do count) -- and analyze what helped you achieve them.

　　2.準(zhǔn)備好“電梯演說”。用20到30秒的時間，總結(jié)自己的才華和能力。如果你對自己的能力并不確定，可以 回憶一 下自己到目前為止所取得的成就，包括你的`課外活動(是的，當(dāng)然包括體育活動)中擔(dān)任的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)角色，然后仔細(xì)分析是什么幫你取得了這些成功。

　　3. Dress appropriately. If in doubt about what to wear, it's safer to be overdressed than clad too casually. Clothes don't make the man (or the woman)， but wearing business attire will send a subtle message that you're taking this event seriously.

　　3.穿著得體。如果不確定該穿什么，即便是穿衣講究過了頭，也比穿著隨便要好。穿什么不能代表一個人的全部，但是，穿職業(yè)裝可以傳達(dá)一種非常微妙的信息：說明你對這次活動非常重視。

　　4. Be enthusiastic. If you're genuinely interested in an employer, end the conversation by saying so, and express your interest in exploring opportunities at the company. All else being equal, the most eager candidate often has an edge with employers.

　　4. 充滿熱情。如果你真心對一位雇主感興趣，在對話結(jié)束的時候，要說出自己的感受，并表明自己有興趣在這家公司尋找更多機(jī)會。在其他條件相差無幾的情況下，對工作機(jī)會表現(xiàn)最迫切的求職者更有優(yōu)勢。

　　5. Follow up after the fair is over.Don't forget to ask for contact information from every recruiter you meet. Then, as soon as possible, send an email -- or better yet, a handwritten note -- briefly conveying why you believe you'd be the right hire. Ask when you might be able to meet again.

　　5. 招聘會結(jié)束后要繼續(xù)跟進(jìn)。不要忘記向你見過的每一位招聘者詢問聯(lián)系信息。然后，盡快發(fā)一封電子郵件，當(dāng)然如果是手寫的便條更好。簡要說明為何你相信自己是理想的人選，并詢問你們何時可以再見面。

　　And speaking of following up, it's not at all unusual to interview with a company and hear nothing for several weeks afterward. Even for seasoned job seekers, getting hired these days is a long, drawn-out process. And big companies especially are interviewing on so many campuses that it takes them a long time to reach a decision. Some may be holding off on making offers because they aren't quite sure yet what their staffing needs will be next spring.

　　而說到后續(xù)工作，在一家公司面試幾周過后，依然杳無音訊，這樣的情況并不鮮見。如今，即使是經(jīng)驗豐富的求職者，找到一份工作也需一個漫長持久的 過程。 尤其是一些大公司，他們要去許多學(xué)校招聘。因此，他們得花很長時間才能做出決定。有些公司會推遲招聘，因為對于明年春天，公司需要招聘什么樣的員工，他們并不確定。

　　That's why it's important to stay in touch with them. You don't want to bombard them with messages, but you need to follow each interview with a thank-you and then ask if there is any more information they would like from you. Send a short note every couple of weeks, to make sure you're not forgotten in the press of other applicants.
