撰寫讓人刮目相看的履歷

什麼樣的履歷十分鐘內就會丟掉

我的許多開發者朋友目前都是公司裡面的面試官。

每次公司有招人需求，都會讓他十分頭大。

因為有招人需求，通常表示現在人力吃緊了，所以他們上班都會很累。

但是更讓他們十分崩潰的是，收十分履歷履歷大概可能只有三份可看。三份裡面只有一份想約來面試。約三到四個只想錄取一個。

據大家共同的心聲都是，這些履歷要馬不是沒重點，要馬就是讓人讀了有火氣。

讓人很沒耐性讀完，何況約來面試。

摘錄句子如下：

1. 我什麼都不會。但我非常有意願學習。請讓我進貴公司學習。
2. 我的家庭有四個人。我爸、我媽、我妹....
3. ....（扯了一堆）但是就是沒有 Web 開發經驗也沒有作品

如果你的履歷有這樣的撰寫傾向。我十分建議再度修改。因為所有的面試官只有三分鐘時間看你的履歷，找到你的優點。超過這個時間，這份履歷就會被刪除。（所以有時候沒收到回信是正常的）

這不是公司殘酷，而是請你以找程式設計師的公司為出發點看這件事。幾乎所有公司都是以找「能工作的員工」來幫公司「貢獻價值」。而不是立志成為「工作補習班」，花了大把金錢「培訓」出一個工程師，在能夠做出一點小東西後就迅速離職。

面試官有三個原則不收

• 只想當「學生」的不收
• 需要花太多時間培訓的不收
• 看不出跟本公司營業項目或要解決的問題的人不收

撰寫一份有重點的履歷

著名的 37Signals 公司曾經公開過，他們收過最 impressive 的幾份履歷：Sites that landed jobs at 37signals。

當然，要做出視覺效果這麼厲害的履歷，一般人可能做不太到。

不過從這些份履歷中，可以學習到的是，寫一份良好履歷的結構方式。

以 Jason 的履歷作為示範 http://jasonzimdars.com/svn/

自介

1. 用一句話形容自己。

Not this Jason, nor this Jason, and certainly not this Jason. I love to make things — especially websites. I think we should talk.

2. 第一段用 200 - 300 字做自我介紹。

I AM A WEB DESIGNER

I’m a graphic designer who loves the web, design, beauty and things that are enjoyable to use. I am as excited by smart mark-up and clever css as I am by the single pixel that makes that button perfect. I think that “Designed by Apple in California” is the most brilliant thing to ever appear on a package.

3. 用二段話介紹自己最近 2-3 年做過的事。（與這份職業可能相關的事）

WHAT I DO

I work for an awesome company in Oklahoma City called Element Fusion. We make some pretty great products, too. We have an amazing team of designers, we use and admire 37signals’ products, and we try our best to make customers happy. I’m the creative director here which sounds fancy but really means that I help our designers be their best and ensure that the work they do is awesome. I am also in charge of making our web apps beautiful and fun to use. I think we do a pretty good job, our customers seem to think so, too.

Element Fusion is a great place to work. I have creative freedom, a good work environment, talented co-workers and am handsomely compensated. Really, I cannot think of anything that would keep me from being here a very long time. But I always want more. Not necessarily stuff or money, but I want to learn more and get better. I want to keep the pressure up. I want to take on the toughest challenges.

4. 用一段話表達你為什麼想應徵這一份工作（最好透露出你對該公司有一定的研究）

YOR ARE THE BEST

You are 37signals. You make awesome products, you piss people off, and generally make the web a better place. Heck, some of you are even a Jason.

YOU NEED THE BEST

You need a rock star. You need somebody that will tell you “no”, that will fight for an idea, and that isn’t such a fanboy that he won’t challenge years of what 37signals has established as the way to do the web.

I’ll be honest. There are tons of reasons not to try for this job. Sure, on the surface it sounds like a dream to work for 37signals. Your philosophy makes me say “right on” and the way you have described your work environment makes it sound exactly like the kind of place a creative person could soar. This is a high-profile job at a company that is put on a pedestal by the web community. Who wouldn’t covet such an amazing opportunity? I certainly do, but it’s not all fun and games — this is a tough challenge. Redesigning your marketing websites and eventually the products, themselves, will invite an incredible amount of scrutiny from thousands of users and bloggers. This is a position that requires a thick skin, amazing skills, and supernatural confidence.

5. 自己對這份職缺的競爭優勢 （相對於其他競爭者，你有什麼特殊的優點或突出的經歷）

I'M THE GUY

I didn’t make this page lightly, and have spent some time considering whether or not to really go for this. I love a challenge. I love the idea of working with people that are brilliant; whom I admire and respect. I know what it means to work together to make something great. And I look forward to making 37signals better by my addition. I want to learn from you and I want to teach you and I want to learn things together.

作品

1. 條列工作上做過哪些專案
2. 條列自己的私人項目
3. 條列自己有趣的創意作品
4. 解釋以上專案所用到的相關技術

聯絡資訊

1. 自己基本的個人資料
2. 聯絡資訊
3. 部落格 / Github 網址
4. 方便面談的時間

招募表格範例

一年前我為自己公司設計的線上應徵表單也是採取這種篩選方式：

表單內容

• 應徵職缺
• 姓名
• 手機
• Email
• 自我介紹
• 做過什麼東西
• Github 帳號（必填）
• Twitter 帳號
• Blog 網址
• 正式履歷（檔案）
• 方便聯絡時間

（解說）自我介紹

• 簡單自我介紹
• 簡單過往經歷
• 為什麼想應徵這份工作
• 自己的優勢（個性、技術）

至少 500 字

（解說）自己做過什麼東西

• 工作上的
• 做好玩的
• 練習用的

請條列網址

當初會想這樣設計的表單，主要也是我實在看煩一堆沒有重點的履歷了。

而且還有時候還會遇到以下哭笑不得的狀況：

1. 不給姓名（只有暱稱，或英文名字）
2. 不給手機（那...我要怎麼約來面試）
3. 沒寫方便聯絡時間（打過去都關機或語音信箱）
4. 根本寫不清楚他具體做什麼東西，只說自己想學 Rails

後來思考了很久，想解決這個問題。發現方法也很簡單，就是直接幫求職者畫重點，請他寫出我想要看的內容。

我誠實的說，一般就業市場上，將履歷寫的很好的人，真的非常稀少。如果你能寫出好履歷，且幫雇主在自己履歷上畫重點，相信脫穎而出的機會會變得相當高。
