The reporter learned that when enterprises are recruiting, job seekers with the same experience are overwhelmed, and HR people will basically not consider job seekers who change jobs, because their experience gap in the target position is undoubtedly a risk for enterprises. Of course, if your resume is "unusual" enough to express your strong interest in the position, your perfect career planning and working ideas for the target position, I believe that a discerning HR will give you an interview opportunity.
Here is an example of successful job-hopping and career change. Maybe you can learn a trick from these two resumes.
Example 1: Write a cover letter for the "target position"
Mr. Jin, 10 years working experience, has worked in manufacturing, electronics and service industries, and has been engaged in training, consulting and project management. Although he has worked in different jobs, Mr. Jin has always been interested in human resource management. Not long ago, he handed in his resume, hoping to get a position as HR manager or manager of organizational development department.
Characteristics of resume writing:
At first glance, Mr. Kim's resume breaks the traditional writing format. He simplified the description of past experience, but focused on the understanding of the position and his own experience, which looked like a combination of resume and cover letter. His resume looks like this:
The first part is the introduction of personal basic information;
The second part immediately wrote "job intention"-HR manager. He expounded his interest in human resource management, his long-term experience, and the experience gained from working with many human resources in other positions. In addition, Mr. Jin participated in interview recruitment activities when he was engaged in project management, so he also highlighted his experience and experience in talent selection.
In the third part, Mr. Jin summed up what measures he would take if he could engage in HR work and what effect he hoped to achieve.
The fourth part briefly lists the previous 10 years' work experience. Since most of these experiences have nothing to do with HR, let's briefly describe them.
The fifth part lists some personality traits that conform to HR work, such as patience, meticulous, good at listening, good at cooperating with various departments and strong learning ability.
After this resume is submitted, due to its unique writing format and clear job hunting intention, it is easy to attract the attention of HR and get an interview opportunity.
Example 2: Skillfully use skills and change angles.
Mr. Xie, with a college degree, has worked in the electronics industry for nearly 65,438+00 years. He has worked as an electronic technical engineer, senior engineer, project manager and factory director of component procurement and production. He was sent to Canada by the company for 3 years, engaged in electronic engineering and process management, and fluent in English.
After returning to China this time, Mr. Xie feels that he has been engaged in the electronic industry from technology to project management, and it is difficult to make a greater breakthrough. Attracted by the golden income and high social status of consulting industry, Mr. Xie hopes to become a "consultant" and engage in consulting work. However, he realized that even if his 10 years of technical work experience could fill three pages, none of his experience was related to consulting. How can such a resume be favored by HR? Besides, I only have a junior college degree, and the consultant gives people the impression that he is a highly educated person. Can I realize my wish? Mr. Xie is very upset about this.
Characteristics of resume writing:
After the guidance of experts, Mr. Xie realized that the consulting work was not unattainable. Although Mr. Xie has never been engaged in real consulting work, his years of experience in the electronics industry is essential for consulting work in the electronics industry. Teacher Xie has a technical background, production experience, familiar with the workflow, familiar with the production and sales departments of electronic enterprises, foreign training and work experience, and fluent English, all of which are the capital for job transfer. Moreover, his work in the next few years has gradually acted as an "internal consultant".
Inspired by experts, Mr. Xie's idea of job-hopping suddenly became clear. So he used some "skills" in his resume writing and changed the narrative angle. When listing many years of work experience, he weakened the specific work of technology and highlighted the work experience of technical support and technical consultation; Weaken technological advantages, but focus on the advantages of being familiar with enterprise operation, understanding enterprise operation process, understanding the work of various departments, and often participating in process management and problem solving of various departments; Finally, I emphasize my love for consulting work, list some consulting training and courses I have participated in abroad, and show my work style in line with the consulting industry, such as being willing to work under high pressure, finding solutions to problems, enjoying challenging work and having good communication skills.
Shortly after the revised resume was submitted, Mr. Xie received an interview notice from a well-known foreign-funded consulting company.
