写英文求职信应注意的细节问题
写英文求职信应注意的细节问题
求职信 的第一段说明写信的目的，有些专家认为不宜用分词子句。如用下面的句子做开头，因为这样的句子被人用得大多，显得陈腐，失去特点。
Replying to your advertisement …… Answering your advertisement …… Believing that there is an opportunity …… Thinking that there is a vacancy in your company …… Having read your ad ……
再比较下列三句。(1)句较差，经过修改后(2)句显得较恰当。
A：(1)Replying to your recent advertisement in the Boston Evening Globe, I wish to apply for the position of sales manager……
(2)In applying for the position of sales manager I offer my qualifications, which I believe will meet your exacting requirements.
B：(1)I believe after reading your advertisement in this mornings Journal that you have just the opportunity I am looking for.
(2)your advertisement in this mornings Journal for an adjustment manager prompts me to offer you my qualifications for this position
C：(1) Having read your advertisement in the New York Times for an accountant, I thought you might be interested in my application.
(2)In your advertisement for an accountant, you indicated that you require the services of a competent person, with thorough training in the field of cost accounting. Please consider me an applicant for the position. Here are my reasons for believing I am qualified for this work.
求职的在提到希望得到的待遇时，可用类似的句子：
A：I hesitate to state a definite salary, but, as long as you have requested me to , I should consider 6,500 a month satisfactory. 我对待遇总是无法定下确切数目，但既然您要我说明，我认为月薪六千五百元就满意了。
B： Although it is difficult for me to say what compensation I should deserve, I should considera month a fair initial salary. 虽然我很难说待遇应该是多少，我认为每月起薪合适。
C：I feel it is presumptuous of me to state what my salary should be. My first consideration is to satisfy you completely. However, while I am serving my apprenticeship, I should considera month satisfactory compensation. 我不敢冒昧提出起薪是多少。最初我仅想如何做好工作，使您满意。在学徒（试用）期间，月薪即可。
提起或要求待遇时不要过分谦虚或表示歉意，下列句子不宜使用。
A： As for salary, I do not know what to say. Would$4,500 a month be too much? 至于起薪，我不知怎么说，月薪四千五百元会不会太多？
B：Do you think I should be asking too much if I said 5000 dollars a month? 若要求月薪五千元，会不会太高？
C：You know what my services are worth better than I do . All I want is a living wage. 对我工作的价值您比我更清楚。我能够糊口即可。

求职信 要发挥最大的效果，语气必须肯定、自信、有创意而不过分夸张，如能事先了解雇主的喜好，或其他人格特点，根据物以类聚的原理，求职信如果能迎合雇主的特点，求职的人一定可以比其他人占上风，获得面谈的机会。
注意下面句子中语气的不同：
A：I think that I should probably make a good for you. 我想我可能成为贵公司的优秀的员工。
B：I am confident that my experience and references will show you that I can fulfill the particular requirements of your position. 我想信我的经验和别人对我的推荐可以使您充分了解我符合贵公司一职的需要。
C：I recently completed a course in filing at the School of Business. I am competent not only to install a filing system that will fulfill the needs of your organization, but I am also well qualified to operate it efficiently. 最近我在读完课程，我相信不仅可以设计一套符合您的要求档案分类系统，而且可以进行有效的操作。
D：I feel quite certain that as a result of the course in filing which I completed at the School of Business, I can install and operate efficiently a filing system for your organization. 我相信经过我在*学校的课程学习之后，我能够替贵公司设置并且操作一套档案分类系统。
第一句显得语气太弱，写信的人有点羞怯的样子。第二句有特殊风格，第三句太过自信，第四句，作者表示谦虚。
公司的老板大多认为，注重小节的人对重大的事务也会谨慎行事。一个人做人做事是否谨慎可以从一封求职信中看出来。别看轻了短短一封信，一封求职信可以显露出一个人的嗜好、鉴别力、教育程度以及人格特性。下列几个要点便是泄露一个人秘密的地方。因此，写信的人一定要留意。
A.纸张的选用：最好使用品质优良，白色的信纸。信封要配合信纸的颜色。
B.书写：求职者一般是把求职信打印出来，并加亲笔签名。签名时字体要写得庄重得体，龙飞凤舞的字迹无疑是自寻绝路。
C.格式：正文要适当地排列在信纸中，格式要全文一致，不要中途改变。
D.语法、标点和拼写：正确无误的语法、标点和拼写使读信人感到舒畅，错误的语法或拼写则十分明显，一望即知，给人留下不好的印象。尤其要注意的是，绝不可把收信人的姓名或公司名称拼错了。
E.信封：信封上面的地址要完整，称谓要合时宜，信纸的折叠要适当，大小适合信封。
F.附件：求职信通常不须附加推荐信，除非招聘时有要求。遇到这种情形，只须附上复印件即可。另外，求职信内附加邮票或贴好邮票写好地址的回邮信封，强迫对方答覆的作法不宜使用，除非对方有此要求。
需要思考的地方
写求职信需要留意几个方面：
A.陈述事实，避免表示意见：与工作经验有关的事实可以陈述出来，但不应强调将给未来工作带来怎样的好处。
B.不要批评他人：如果你要离开现职，可以说出原因但不要用批评的方式，雇主想要了解你，而非你的工作体会。
C.不要过分渲染自我：你当然认为有能力，够资格才要申请某一职位，但不要过分夸大自己的能力或表现过分的信心，尤其不要说出与事实不符的能力来。
D.留意底薪：有的雇主要你提到希望的待遇。你要作准确的判断，写出你觉得可行的最低薪金。很多人应该知道，与其寻得一份高薪的工作倒不如找待遇尚可而有升迁机会的工作。
通过上面的说明，希望能对你有所帮助，祝你求职成功！
