Is the resume sent by email in the text or in the attachment? This problem has always been the intersection of the debates on email delivery resume, and each has its own reasons. Just this question. I suggest you handle it flexibly according to the specific situation. Before that, you should understand the background, advantages and disadvantages of sending resumes in the form of text and attachment respectively.

Text sending resume

Many companies' e-mail boxes have small capacity. In order to prevent the spread of computer viruses, many companies' e-mail systems are not allowed to add attachments to their e-mails. If this is the case, either delete the message with the attachment directly or delete the attachment. It is for this reason that many companies choose public mailboxes such as 163, Gmail, Sohu and Yahoo. When you receive your resume, or use a company email address that can't receive attachments. If it is a company mailbox that can't receive attachments, candidates need to send resumes in the form of email body.

Advantages:

1. You don't need to download the attachment, HR can open the email body to read the resume content;

2, pure text format, easy to view, not because the computer does not install some software and can not open the document resume file (such as doc, pdf, excel and other formats).

Disadvantages:

The resume format in 1. text is easily confused for various reasons (e.g. email coding, email sending and forwarding), and it is difficult to guarantee;

2. It is difficult and troublesome to post photos in the text;

Attachment send resume

Sending resumes in the form of attachments can completely guarantee the format of resumes and facilitate HR to download and print resumes. However, the mailbox size and capacity of most foreign companies are limited, and the attachments are also strictly limited.

Advantages:

1, which fully guarantees the resume format and facilitates HR to download and print resumes;

2. The photos in the resume are not affected;

Disadvantages:

3. Attachments are easily rejected and deleted by the company email system;

4. When the attachment is large, the mail sending process may fail due to unstable factors;

So, how do you choose the way to send your resume by email? It is recommended to refer to the following principles:

1. 1. Check the requirements for resume delivery in the recruitment information, whether to indicate whether to submit the resume in text or attachment, and submit the resume in strict accordance with the requirements in the recruitment information.

2. If the recruitment information does not indicate whether to use the text or the attachment, first check the email type of the resume, which is the company system email? Or 163, Gmail, Yahoo and other public mailboxes? (for example: xx @ ge.com or ***@kpmg.com.cn, etc. Whose email address is the company website @ suffix is the company system email address).

If it is a company system email, send a resume in text form;

If it is a public email address such as 163 or Gmail, it is recommended to send your resume as an attachment. Please pay attention to the following points when sending your resume as an attachment:

1. When sending your resume as an attachment, you should attach a cover letter to the body. You can't leave a blank space in the body of the email, or just mark "Attachment is my resume". You must write a cover letter in the text, explaining the job title, why it is suitable for this position and your skills and qualities. The purpose of this is to show your greatest advantage before HR downloads the attached resume.

2. The name of the attachment should be well named, which is convenient for HR to download and save directly. Don't use the words "my resume" and "resume 3". Imagine, if everyone names in this form and HR downloads and saves it directly, how can so many resumes be distinguished? The name of the attachment should be "applied position+own name", which is convenient for HR to download and save directly, and then you can access your resume conveniently. If the company also requests to send other works, certificates and other attachments, the names of these attachments must be good, preferably "work name+name". This will also show your professionalism.

3. File format with resume: It is recommended to use Word in Office to make resume. If there is no special indication in the recruitment information, it is recommended not to convert to pdf format, or use other resumes in non-Word format. Because not every company's computer is equipped with software that can open pdf files. When you make a resume in Word and save it, you should also pay attention to the saved version format of Office Word. If you use the latest version of Word software (such as office 2007), when saving the file, you must save it in a lower version format so that the lower version of Word software can be opened normally (such as office 2003). Because the office software of the computer used by HR in most companies is not necessarily the latest version, if the resume is saved in the high version format of word (such as docx format), word in office 2003 cannot be opened normally. At the same time, don't compress your resume into compressed file formats such as rar and zip, because not every company's HR computer is equipped with decompression tools.

4. Attachment size: To send a resume as an attachment, you only need to send a resume, and you don't need to send transcripts, certificates and other attachments. Unless the recruitment information clearly indicates that these materials are to be provided. Make the attachment file not too big. Try to be smaller. Because not every company's network is connected to the external network quickly.

What's particular about the email address where job seekers submit their resumes?

When submitting your resume to the employer, you should use your own private public email address, not the email address of the school education network.

Choose a reliable email, especially a free email. It would be a pity if it is unstable, the resume sent by the other party is not received, or the letter is lost in the process of the other party's reply. It is recommended to use public mailboxes such as Gmail and Yahoo.

Email ID should be professional, mature and professional. In the setting of email ID, you can generally use English name+Chinese surname; You can use hanyu pinyin+numbers (registration date, birthday and other numbers). The principle is not to look stupid, such as Superman and littlegirl. It's better for the other party to know who you are immediately when they see the mailbox.

How should I write the email title?

As for the title of the email, if the other party has explained which format to use as the theme when recruiting (in the recruitment advertisement), try to follow it as much as possible, because this is the standard for its preliminary screening.

Don't think that an HR only receives a few or dozens of resumes a day. In fact, there are hundreds or even thousands of letters applying for different positions. If your title only says "application" or "job application" or "resume", you can imagine how much attention your resume has received. So at least write down the position you are applying for, and it is best to write your name in the title so that HR can review your resume.

One more thing: the title should be written in Chinese, unless English is required when applying! HR not only receives a lot of resumes every day, but also receives a lot of spam. Many emails have English titles, so if you use English as the title, it is likely to be deleted as spam. If you want to prove that your English level is good, show it on your resume, instead of making a fuss about the topic. And don't use some strange symbols, such as "~ ~" and "&"# "* *" and so on. The reason is the same, and they are all caused by spam.

So a standard title is: the position you want to apply for-your name-the work place required by this position. This will at least ensure that your email can be read. It's actually very simple: just write down the position you want to apply for and your name. If you have obvious advantages, or rich work experience, or a well-known school, etc., you can also write like this: the position you want to apply for-your name-8 years of work experience; The position you want to apply for-your name -XXX University.

How do you write the position you applied for?

According to the company's writing in the recruitment information, the title of the position you are applying for is definitely no problem. Don't play by yourself. The proportion of this problem among students is still relatively small, but even for interns, there are several kinds of big companies, and you can write whatever he wants.

Don't broadcast it without authorization, even if the job content is similar, the job name must be as required in the job advertisement. For example, the recruitment of "assistant to the general manager of the channel department" should not be written as "assistant to the general manager" or "channel assistant"; Don't write "Secretary to the President" or "Secretary" when recruiting "Secretary to the Vice President" ... There are countless examples like this. Many times, the words invented by yourself have no corresponding positions, so no matter how well your resume is done, you should put it aside.

It is also very important that you at least know what position you want to do, at least what kind of position. Don't post multiple jobs in the same company, especially those that are not close. In fact, many generalists who send resumes aimlessly seem to increase their opportunities. In fact, such people are usually not considered. How does the company help you decide what kind of position you want? !

By the same token, there are few job opportunities if you don't specify the position in the title or resume, write any job-seeking objectives or just write "market-related positions" and "software development-related positions", because the company has no obligation or time and energy to consider which position you are suitable for regardless of hundreds of resumes.

The language of submitting your resume, Chinese or English?

The choice of language for submitting resumes and cover letters is only a matter of the order of Chinese and English resumes, that is, both Chinese and English resumes must be available when submitting resumes, but the order of display depends on the specific situation. It is recommended to refer to the following principles:

1. If the language of receiving resumes is clearly indicated in the recruitment information, the language of submitting resumes shall be selected in strict accordance with the requirements in the recruitment information;

2. If the language of the resume is not indicated in the recruitment information, a cover letter in Chinese is attached to the body of the resume, followed by an English cover letter, followed by a Chinese resume and an English resume;

3. If resumes are submitted as attachments, Chinese and English resumes will be merged into one document, with Chinese resumes on the first page and English resumes on the second page. There is no need to make two attachment documents, otherwise HR will score two downloads.
