The Difference Between Rsums and CVs These two names descr
34、ibe the same document and they both have the same purpose, although there are technical differences. “Rsum” is the name mostly used by the US and Canadian companies. Britain and other English-speaking countries tend to use “Curriculum Vitae”(CV). Non-English-speaking foreign companies operating in C
35、hina will expect job applicants to submit an English- language Rsum with their job applications and interviews are conducted in English.,Part two,Communication Skill Training,Step 1,It is considerable to list more skills in your Rsum than you express in the interview. Your Rsum should be clear and a
36、bove all it should be brief. For new graduates, the Rsum should not be more than 1 page. It is your most important job hunting document and will be updated from time to time during your whole career. Another important point is that your Rsum is competing with many othersperhaps hundreds of. It takes
37、 great effort to produce a Rsum that stands out and says to the employer: “I must invite this young man/woman into the office for an interview”.,Part two,Communication Skill Training,Step 2,Equally important, is the Cover Letter. You should never send your Rsum to an employer without one. Until you
38、add some work experience, your Rsum will remain unchanged for many job applications. The Cover Letter will change for every job application and should highlight the skills and grades/subjects that seem most relevant to the position you are applying for. Remember, the Cover Letter is your first point
39、 of contact with the employer and importantly lets you address the employer by name. In general, a personal photograph should appear in the top right corner of your Rsum. It is a good idea to use a Rsum photograph that is taken for this purpose.,Part two,Communication Skill Training,Step 2,You shoul
40、d not use your student ID or drivers licence photograph for your Rsum as these require you to be serious and without a smile. Your student ID photograph taken when you were a freshman will be out-of-date by the time you graduate. You want to have a “young adult who is ready for work” image, not a ch
41、ildish image. A suitable photograph will be “head and shoulders” with a pleasant expression which could be described as a “partial smile”. It should be full face but not look like an ID picture. Typeface and font size should be considered carefully. Ariel typeface is the most popular for your Rsum.
42、It is particularly easy to read on screen. Font size11 or 12 fits on one page. The text should be “justified”, i.e. right margin should be straight.,Part two,Communication Skill Training,Step 2,Do you have some other ideas about the job interview? Try to find more information about it on the Interne
43、t and discuss interview taboos with your partner.,Part two,Communication Skill Training,Step 3,When you are fully confident about the speaking requirements for interview questions, proceed to the Real World Practice below.,Part three,Real World Practice,Step 1,Rsum Example:,Yujia Wu (Leona) (pic) 12
