如何提高英文简历制作水平
在竞争激烈的现代社会里,写好个人简历(curriculum vitae)是求职的一个重要手段。一般说来,简历是有关个人情况的简述,要求包括与所申请职业有关的所有细节。写英文简历没有一定的格式,你可以根据自己的实际情况来设计各部分的标题,下面就来看看如何提高英文简历制作水平:
如何提高英文简历制作水平
一、标点符号一律使用半角
二、逗号、句号、分号、冒号、感叹号、问号和它们后面的字符之间必须留一个半角空格。
错 误:Hi,I'm an entrepreneur.Can you make this app for me for free?Because,you know,I have this brilliant idea but I don't know how to code.
正确:Hi, I'm an entrepreneur. Can you make this app for me for free? Because, you know, I have this brilliant idea but I don't know how to code.
三、逗号、句号、分号、冒号、感叹号、问号和它们前面的字符之间不可留任何空格。
错误:I think our current version is too skeuomorphic ,why don't we ,uh ,make it flatter so that it looks more metro-ish?
正确:I think our current version is too skeuomorphic, why don't we, uh, make it flatter so that it looks more metro-ish?
四、将长串数字分开写,降低辨识的难度。
错误:13927396856
正确:139 2739 6856 或 139-2739-6856
五、书名、杂志名、电影名、音乐专辑名、英文中出现的外文(包括拼音,人名除外)用斜体。
错误:In 2008, I created this amazing service during my internship at Playboy which is totally LBS avant la lettre.
正确:In 2008, I created this amazing service during my internship at Playboy which is totally LBS avant la lettre.
六、对于电话区号应用不同的符号区分。
错误:+86-139-2739-6856
正确:(86) 139 2739 6856 或 (86) 139-2739-6856
七、对于有序列表,应采用“阿拉伯数字 + 英文句点 + 半角空格”的方式。
错误:
Three words I hate:
1.Innovation.
2, Leverage.
3 Synergy.
正确:
Three words I hate:
1. Innovation.
2. Leverage.
3. Synergy.
八、括号弧线外要留空格,弧线内不要。
错误:Byte Press(née Tangcha ) is the best Chinese-language eBook app. Period.
正确:Byte Press (née Tangcha) is the best Chinese-language eBook app. Period.
但同一个单词内的括号例外:
错误:After the linguistic turn, people are getting addicted to pretentious bracketed words such as ‘(ex) plain (ed)’.
正确:After the linguistic turn, people are getting addicted to pretentious bracketed words such as ‘(ex)plain(ed)’.
九、用弯引号,不要用直(的弯)引号。
错误:"Bazinga!" 'You are pwned!'
正确:“Bazinga!” ‘You are pwned!’
十、正确使用各种短横:em dash (—) 是破折号,en dash (–) 用来连接年份、时间,是「到」的意思,hyphen (-) 是连字符。
错 误:Glenn Gould (1932-1982) is probably my one and only hero - the person who taught me to think differently well before Steve Jobs.
正 确:Glenn Gould (1932–1982) is probably my one and only hero — the person who taught me to think differently well before Steve Jobs.
注意:
1. 若写作时用两个 hyphen (--) 代替破折号,Word 等字处理软件会自动将其转为 em dash (—) 。有鉴于 em dash 输入不便(Mac 上是 shift + option + -),这也是英文写作通用的替代法。(注:hyphen - en dash – em dash —)
2. 破折号(em dash)两端可各留一半角空格,亦可不留。此乃英美习惯之不同,无对错之分。惟请在同一份简历中保持统一。
