職場(chǎng)秘籍：假期應(yīng)該如何找工作？
While the holidays might seem like a slow period for hiring, career experts say the season also presents an opportunity for job applicants to make an impression.
雖然假期看起來(lái)是求職的緩慢期，但是職場(chǎng)專家說(shuō)假期也是求職者給雇主留下深刻印象的好機(jī)會(huì)。
"Around the holidays, many job seekers are preoccupied with family gatherings and other distractions that keep them away from their searches," says Shawn Graham, author of "Courting Your Career" and director of MBA career services at the University of Pittsburgh. "As a result, the volume of applications for non-seasonal work is often lighter -- and that gives you, as a candidate, a greater chance of being seen."
匹茲堡大學(xué)的MBA職業(yè)發(fā)展辦公室的主任以及《追求你的職業(yè)》一書(shū)的作者Shawn Graham說(shuō)：“在假期時(shí)間，很多求職者都因?yàn)榧彝ゾ蹠?huì)或其他的事情使他們?cè)谇舐毶戏中�。最后的結(jié)果就是產(chǎn)生了非季節(jié)性的工作職位空缺，而這會(huì)讓身為求職者的你有很大的機(jī)會(huì)表現(xiàn)自己。”
Adds Mary Rosenbaum, a career coach and personal branding strategist at Your Career by Design, "Most companies work on their strategic plans during the fourth quarter and tend to be more open to a variety of potential hires that might fit with their strategic goals for the coming year."
“Your Career by Design,”公司的職業(yè)教練兼?zhèn)�人品牌策略師Mary Rosenbaum補(bǔ)充說(shuō)：“大部分公司都會(huì)在第四季度制定戰(zhàn)略規(guī)劃，并且會(huì)招聘更多適合他們下一年戰(zhàn)略目標(biāo)實(shí)現(xiàn)的候選人。”
Industries that use a bonus structure, like legal or financial firms, also anticipate turnover during the first quarter, because some employees leave after collecting their annual bonus.
采用獎(jiǎng)金制度的公司，比如法律或金融公司，也會(huì)在第一季度做營(yíng)業(yè)額的預(yù)算，因?yàn)楹芏嗦殕T都會(huì)在拿到年度獎(jiǎng)金之后離職。
So, how can job seekers stand out during the holiday season? Here are four ways to start:
所以，求職者怎么樣在假期脫穎而出呢？以下四個(gè)方法教你如何開(kāi)始：
Call during off hours.
在下班時(shí)間致電。
"As the holidays approach, people are in and out of the office, and those who are at work often use that time to play catch up," says Graham. "Recruiters could use that time to give applicants of interest a longer look."
“因?yàn)榧倨趯⒔�，在辦公室或不在辦公室的人，以及上班的人都會(huì)利用下班時(shí)間來(lái)趕計(jì)劃。招聘人員可能會(huì)用下班時(shí)間給有興趣的候選人更長(zhǎng)的應(yīng)聘時(shí)間。” Graham如是說(shuō)。
Since support staff may be out of the office, job seekers have a better chance of reaching an actual hiring manager or recruiter. One of the ways Graham suggests reaching managers when they aren't running in and out of meetings is to call before the start of the business day or after 5 p.m.
因?yàn)橹砣藛T可能沒(méi)上班，所以求職者有更好的機(jī)會(huì)見(jiàn)到實(shí)際招聘經(jīng)理或招聘人員。Graham推薦的.一個(gè)方法就是，如果你想找到不是在繁忙之中或會(huì)議中的經(jīng)理的話，那就在上班之前或5點(diǎn)之后給他打電話吧。
Avoid holiday gimmicks.
不要耍假期小聰明
Some job seekers use cutesy ideas like sending a plate of Christmas cookies along with a cover letter or printing their resumes on holiday paper in the hopes that they'll get noticed. But Graham and Rosenbaum warn that these gimmicks can backfire.
有的求職者為了引起招聘者的注意，會(huì)想一些做作的主意，比如在發(fā)送求職信的時(shí)候附送一籃圣誕餅干或用假日紙張打印簡(jiǎn)歷。但是Graham 和Rosenbaum都警告說(shuō)這些小聰明可能會(huì)起反作用。
