一、读懂广告要求
基本方法选取适当的工作后，须看清招聘广告上所列出的每项要求，再将自己的学历、能力与兴趣逐一与之比较，作一张balance sheet. 例如，一则关于marketing management trainee和job requirement 是这样写的：
We are looking for a competent person to fill the captioned position：
University graduate majors in Marketing Management. Prepared to develop career in the commercial field
-outgoing personality
-Able to communicate with different levels
-Good knowledge in PC operations -Proficiency in written and spoken English/Mandarin
则你相应地考虑自己的qualification的选择和表述，如你可写(与上列各项对应)：
-University graduate with major in Marketing
-Having actively participated in Business club‘s activities and learned accounting and management
-Good in communication with people and like a lot of out door activities know how to tackle with people from all walks of life
-Skillful in operating Words,Excel,Lotus1-2-3,etc
-Fluent in English and studied advanced level of Mandarin
这个方法的好处是可让求职者清楚了解该职位是否适合自己，而本身资料又是否切合要求，而且，明白了各项要求后，就可依据每一点在履历表上重点提出自己在该方面的强项。突出卖点(selling point)，将之放在最吸引别人的地方，使招聘者一眼可见，有利于present自己。
二、关于工作经验的陈述
