Perfect Resume(英語履歴書)を作るため
英文履歴書こそが、書類選考勝ち残りの鍵
近い将来あなたは英文履歴書(レジュメ)を作成し、面接を受けるでしょう。
レジュメは定型フォーマットがなく千差万別ですが、ライバルとの書類選考に勝ち残るために押さえるべきポイントが存在します。レジュメは普段他人と見比べる機会が少ないだけに、基本的な勘違いに気づかないケースも多いため、作成には注意が必要です。
レジュメはあなたの経験・スキルをアピールし、外資系企業にあなたを売り込む自己広告です。
レジュメの出来が良ければ、面接に呼んでもらえます。特に、「Personal Data」「Objective」「Education」「Skill&Qualifications」「Experience」「References」の項目欄に、不備があると書類選考で落とされる確率が高まります。
また、レジュメでは表現しづらい自分のパーソナリティーを伝える「Cover Letter(応募理由書)」の提出が求められる場合、応募先の企業が重視する経験やスキルを適切に伝え、自身の積極性と興味性を自然にアピールする必要があります。Eigoheroはあなたのキャリアアップを応援します!
