If you are graduating from college and looking for a job you wanna make sure your resume is the very best it can be. And there is a difference between the kind of resume you need as a student and the kind you wanna have as a professional. I'm Lindsey Pollak, author of Getting from College to Career and I'm here to provide you some essential Do's and Don'ts for making sure your resume is the very best it can be. First let's start with the Do's.
如果你刚刚从大学毕业，或者正在寻找工作的话，你要确保你的简历是最出色的，这样你才有可能脱颖而出。那么一份好的简历应该做到什么呢？

No. 1 Make sure that it's 100% clear when someone looks at your resume exactly what kind of job you want. A recruiter may probably only spend a couple of seconds figuring out where you might fit in a company, so make sure it's clear from how you list your experiences and it's not, you might wanna consider adding an objective statement or profile statement explaining exactly where you would like to be in their organization.

首先，当别人看到这份简历时就100%的了解你想要找什么工作。

No2. Quantify everything. If you raised money at a fundraiser for a non-profit, talk about exactly how much money you raised. If you increased sales in your retail job, talk about the percentage increase over the person who had the position before you. Numbers stand out and they make your story and make you look like a better candidate.

其次，量化每一件事，详细描述你做的每一件事取得的成绩。

No.3 Just like numbers stand out on a resume brand names stand out as well. If you worked for / impressive-named companies on an internship or a job, if you won a scholarship that has an impressive name in your community, if you've been part of a team or a non-profit organization,be sure that those names have a prominent place on your resume.

第三．正如数字是一份简历的亮点，品牌名称也一样。

No.4 Include all relevant experiences even if it was unpaid. Volunteer opportunities, extracurriculars / any job that you did where you demonstrated professional expertise or you built your skills,absolutely counts as experience and should be included on your resume.

第四．简历中包括所有的相关经历，即使是未收薪酬的工作。

No.5, perhaps the most important tip is to share your resume with people who actually work in the industry you want to join. They will have the best advice on what keywords to include, what order to place your experiencing and any mistakes that may keep you from getting a job in that industry.

第五．或许最重要的一点是把你的简历给你在你所要谋求的行业工作的人看，他们会给出最好的建议。

Now let's talk about the Don'ts.

No1. Don't let your resume go over one page.

第一．不要让你的简历超过一页。

No.2 It sounds obvious. But don't make any grammar or spelling mistakes.

第二．听起来这是显而易见的，但是不要犯任何语法和拼写错误。

No.3 It's time to get rid of those high school accomplishments on your resume unless you won a gold medal or you won a National Merit Scholar or have some phenomenal experience from high school. You wanna transition your resume into the professional world and leave off anything that happened before college.

第三．在简历中去掉那些你在学校里取得的成就，除非你获得了金奖或者你是国家级奖学金获得者。

No.4 Do your best to avoid repetition. You wanna use as many action words as possible to begin each bullet point on your resume:founded, managed, organized. But be sure not to repeat too many of those words so it shows that you have good communication skills as well as good accomplishments on your resume.

第四．尽量不要用重复的词汇。

And finally, the last Don't. Don't exaggerate or lie on your resume. Be honest. Be authentic. And let the best things about you shine through in an honest and positive way.

最后一点，不要夸大。不要在你的简历上撒谎。诚实，真诚。用诚实和积极的态度把你自己最好的一面展现出来！
