After studying in the UK, many students want to stay in the UK for employment. So, how to write the resume of graduates studying in the UK? Let me give you a detailed introduction.

First, how to arouse HR's interest in us?

CV/Resume is a tool for friends to promote themselves, including qualifications, experience, developed skills and achievements. In short, everything different from others, or better than others, should appear in it.

Second, do you need to include self-statement and application intention in your resume?

No, because CV/Resume is a document describing facts, not a subjective explanation.

What should friends pay attention to when doing CV?

1, photo

The photos in Chinese resumes are very important (the age of the face ...), so important that many friends spend a lot of money to take pictures and then modify them with Photoshop, but they are redundant in English resumes.

The first step of English resume, please delete the photos in the document (say the important things three times). For most industries, photos are completely redundant (except for some special industries, such as actors and models, which will attach photos to job advertisements). Because British employers think that if you add photos, it will cause appearance discrimination. So, please don't be smart enough to add beautiful photos to your English resume. The employer may think that you are too scheming and refuse immediately.

2. Personal information

British bosses don't care about your date of birth, gender, height, weight, household registration and marital status. These issues are considered as privacy issues (especially like gender and marital status). When applying for a job, you may be asked to fill out a questionnaire, which will cover most of the above questions, but you don't have to answer the questionnaire.

Only the name, address, email address and telephone number are left in the personal information part of the resume, and all information related to privacy is deleted. Employers recruit talents, regardless of being tall, thin and married. Personal privacy is very important in Britain.

3. Number of pages

Many friends write Chinese resumes as papers, and dozens of pages of Chinese resumes look at all kinds of vomiting blood! However, too many pages is not a good thing for an English resume.

The most important thing in writing an English resume is conciseness, and the highest requirement of an English resume is to write all the information needed by the employer in one page, no more than two pages at most. This is obviously testing everyone's high generalization ability.

4. Experience and education

When applying for a job in Britain, employers pay more attention to relevant work experience. For people with work experience, it is more advantageous. Just list the relevant work information you have done, such as work unit, time, main responsibilities, etc.

Friends who have just graduated, if they don't have much part-time or part-time experience, can mention their contributions, achievements and studies, such as scholarships, when they join clubs at school. Note that the work experience and education in English resumes are mostly in reverse order, starting from the recent work and pushing forward (which is very different from Chinese resumes). In addition, the work unit and years should be bold, so that the recruiter can see it at a glance.

5. Format and typesetting

English resumes tend to be "simple". If you can sum it up in one sentence, don't use paragraphs. If you can explain it in two words, don't write sentences. Especially when describing the main responsibilities and personal abilities of previous work, it is best to summarize a point in one sentence, each sentence should be controlled within one line as far as possible, and a point should be added before each point. This resume looks very important, organized, plus points!

In terms of fonts, Times New Roman is the most commonly used font in English (commonly used font for writing papers). Don't make any other changes to the font (such as color or shape) except for the necessary thickening. Most importantly, if you use an electronic resume, the employer's computer probably doesn't have the fonts on your computer, which is prone to garbled codes.

Highlight "universal ability"

Many companies are looking for "ready" graduates. In addition to having a high degree, it is best to have proof of specific work skills. In order to have a competitive advantage in the job market, students need to cultivate their employability during college: it means that they can successfully play a role in a certain position, switch between different occupations, and ensure that they have sustainable employability throughout their lives.

Third, what abilities do British employers value candidates?

Prospects, the official website of British graduate employment, lists the following "general abilities" and suggestions on how to reflect these abilities in your resume:

1, good communication skills

How to express your ideas skillfully and the ability to listen to others-what employers are interested in. In addition to working in harmony, they will also observe how you persuade others and negotiate.

You can list some written and oral examples of using these skills in your resume and show how to adjust your information according to your target audience.

2. Effective leadership

Even if you don't plan to work in management, you still need to show your employer the potential to inspire others' enthusiasm and guide others to achieve common goals.

Explain in detail in your resume that you have the opportunity to plan and coordinate. Recruiters have always valued the ability to solve problems and conflicts.

3. Planning and research skills

In order to complete some work, you may need to put forward a suitable strategy and action plan. This may include looking for relevant information from multiple sources. How to analyze, explain and report these findings is the focus that employers will consider.

You can emphasize the relevant skills developed in the course study in your resume.

4. Teamwork and interpersonal skills

Most graduates have the opportunity to participate in various team work at school, and employers will consider your personal contribution to achieving common goals.

Give examples in your resume to illustrate how to achieve clear communication, mutual respect and teamwork in community activities.

5. Self-management

You can show your employer your flexibility, resilience and reliability by giving priority to your job responsibilities, working well under pressure and managing your practice effectively.

You can give an example of balancing multiple events and completing multiple tasks on time.
