英文求职信写作中常见语句问题
写求职信的目的在于获得职位,一封求职信无论如何文辞并茂,令人心动,公司HR主管不见到应聘者本人是不会给予工作机会的。因此,求职信的实际目的在于获得面谈的机会。许多人都会copy网上的求职信范本,导致千篇一律,这是非常不可取的。我们已经讲过怎样写求职信,这次我们来谈谈求职信写作中容易被忽略的细节问题。
一、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句子,比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。
Replyingtoyouradvertisement...
Answeringyouradvertisement...
Believingthatthereisanopportunity...
Thinkingthatthereisavacancyinyourpany...
Havingreadyourad...
再比较下面三组例句。每一组里面(1)句较差,经过修改后(2)句显得比较恰当。
A:
(1)ReplyingtoyourrecentadvertisementintheBostonEveningGlobe,Iw ishtoapplyforthepositionofsalesmanager.
(2)Iamapplyingforthepositionofsalesmanager.Ibelievemyqualificatio nswillmeetyourexactingrequirements.
B:
(1)Ibelieveafterreadingyouradvertisementinthismorning'sJournaltha tyouareofferingjusttheopportunityIamlookingfor.
(2)Youradvertisementinthismorning'sJournalforanadjustmentmana gerpromptedmetoapplyforthisposition.
C:
(1)HavingreadyouradvertisementintheNewYorkTimesforanaccounta nt,Ithoughtyoumightbeinterestedinmyapplication.
(2)Inyouradvertisementforanaccountant,youindicatedthatyourequir etheservicesofapetentperson,withthoroughtraininginthefieldofcost accounting.Pleaseconsidermeanapplicantfortheposition.Herearemy reasonsforbelievingIamqualifiedforthiswork.
二、在提到希望得到的待遇时,可用类似的句子:
I'dprefernottosetasalary,butsinceyouask,Iconsider6,500amonthtob esatisfactory.
It'shardformetosaywhatmysalaryshouldbesetat,butifpressedIwould havetoaskforamonthasaninitialsalary.
Idon'tfeelthatIshouldsetmyownsalary,asIamhappyenoughtohavethe privilegeofworkingforyou.However,Iwouldconsideramonthsatisfact orypensationformyapprenticeship.
三、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:
Asforsalary,Idonotknowwhattosay.Would$4,500amonthbetoomuch?
DoyouthinkIwouldbeaskingtoomuchifIsaid5,000dollarsamonth?
YouknowwhatmyservicesareworthbetterthanIdo.AllIwantisalivingw age.
四、关于求职信的结尾用语,下面也有三组例句。每一组里面(1)句较差,经过修改后(2)句显得比较恰当。
A:
(1)软弱、羞怯的:IfyouthinkIcanfillthepositionafteryouhavereadmyletter,Ishallbegladt otalkwithyou.
(2)改写后(较佳):Ifmyqualificationsmeetyourstandards,Iwouldbehappytospeakwithy ouinperson.
B:
(1)怀疑,不妥、不安全的:
Ifyouareinterested,pleaseletmeknowimmediately,asI'msureaninterv iewwillconvinceyouI'mthemanforthejob.
(2)改写后:
Iwouldliketorequestaninterview.YoucanreachmebytelephoneatBeiji ng123456betweenthehoursof7-9a.m.and5:30-9:30p.m.anyevening.
C:
(1)哀求式的句子,不够完整(漏掉面谈时间):Iwouldappreciatetheopportunityforaninterview.Icanbereachedbyca llingBeijing12345678.
(2)改写后:MayIhavetheopportunitytodiscussthismatterfurtherwithyou?Mytel ephonenumberisBeijing12345678.Youcanreachmebetweennineand fiveo'clockduringtheday.
