A resume is only one part of your job-hunting arsenal. But it’s an essential one because a resume is your first introduction to the company. It sums up your professional history and should make a compelling argument about why the employer should hire you.
简历只是您求职武器库的一部分。但这是必不可少的,因为简历是您对公司的第一次介绍。它总结了您的职业经历,并应就雇主为何应雇用您提出令人信服的论据。
Summarizing that history isn’t always easy, though. Which parts should you emphasize on a resume? And are there any parts of your history you’d rather not draw attention to? Your resume should tell a first-rate story about your professional life. But what’s the best resume to do that?
然而,总结历史并不总是那么容易。简历中应该强调哪些部分?在你的历史中,有哪些部分是你不想引起人们注意的吗?您的简历应该讲述有关您职业生涯的一流故事。但做到这一点的最佳简历是什么?
You’re probably familiar with a chronological resume and you’ve probably heard of a functional resume, even if you’ve never used one. But you may never have heard of a hybrid resume. And, more importantly, you may not realize that a hybrid resume can help you tell the best professional story you can.
您可能熟悉按时间顺序排列的简历,并且您可能听说过功能性简历,即使您从未使用过。但您可能从未听说过混合简历。而且,更重要的是,您可能没有意识到混合简历可以帮助您讲述最好的职业故事。
What Is a Hybrid Resume?
什么是混合简历?
A hybrid resume, sometimes called a combination resume, combines the best parts of a chronological resume and a functional resume. This allows you to draw attention to the things you want a recruiter to notice and helps you draw attention away from the things you don’t want to highlight without attempting to hide them.
混合简历,有时称为组合简历,结合了按时间顺序排列的简历和功能性简历的最佳部分。这可以让您将注意力吸引到您希望招聘人员注意到的事情上,并帮助您将注意力从您不想突出显示的事情上转移开,而不是试图隐藏它们。
Just like a functional resume, you highlight your notable and important skills at the top of a hybrid resume. And, just like a chronological resume, you list your work history in date order and include a few key duties and accomplishments from each job.
就像功能性简历一样,您可以在混合简历的顶部突出显示您显着且重要的技能。而且,就像按时间顺序排列的简历一样,您按日期顺序列出您的工作经历,并包括每项工作的一些关键职责和成就。
Why Use a Hybrid Resume
为什么使用混合简历
While the combination resume is not as common as a chronological resume, it is gaining in popularity. In fact, as the team of FlexJobs’ Career Experts point out, “Hybrid resumes have really become the standard resume in a lot of ways. They combine the best elements of chronological and functional resumes.”
虽然组合简历不像按时间顺序排列的简历那么常见,但它越来越受欢迎。事实上,正如 FlexJobs 职业专家团队所指出的那样,“混合简历在很多方面确实已成为标准简历。它们结合了时间简历和功能简历的最佳元素。”
And, it’s a format you should consider using for your next resume.
而且,您应该考虑在下一份简历中使用这种格式。
Recruiters Like Them 招聘人员喜欢他们
It’s true that a hybrid resume looks more like a functional resume than a chronological resume in terms of how it’s formatted on the page. But while recruiters dislike functional resumes, they like combination resumes.
确实,就页面上的格式而言,混合简历看起来更像是功能性简历,而不是按时间顺序排列的简历。但是,虽然招聘人员不喜欢功能性简历,但他们喜欢组合简历。
This may be due, in part, to the fact that while a hybrid resume follows a functional resume approach (highlighting your skills at the top), it also uses a chronological approach to resume writing (listing job duties under job titles).
这可能部分是因为,虽然混合简历遵循功能性简历方法(在顶部突出显示您的技能),但它也使用按时间顺序排列的方法来撰写简历(在职称下列出工作职责)。
The Career Experts explain. “A hybrid resume helps recruiters and hiring managers understand a candidate’s value quickly, get the gist of their skills, then skim the chronological work history for evidence that proves what the summary and skills section have already told them.”
职业专家解释道。 “混合简历可以帮助招聘人员和招聘经理快速了解候选人的价值,了解他们的技能要点,然后浏览按时间顺序排列的工作经历,寻找证据来证明摘要和技能部分已经告诉他们的内容。”
Machines Like Them 像他们这样的机器
Applicant tracking systems (ATS) scan your resume and look for certain keywords. The more keywords you have, the more likely your resume will rank high in the ATS, making it more likely you’ll land an interview.
申请人跟踪系统 (ATS) 会扫描您的简历并查找某些关键字。您拥有的关键字越多,您的简历在 ATS 中排名靠前的可能性就越大,从而获得面试机会的可能性就越大。
However, taking a bunch of keywords from the job description and throwing them on your resume isn’t the way to beat the ATS. Most ATSs are programmed to look for keywords in a certain pattern. Specifically, most look for keywords underneath a job title.
然而,从职位描述中提取一堆关键词并将其添加到简历中并不是击败 ATS 的方法。大多数 ATS 都被编程为以某种模式查找关键字。具体来说,大多数人都会在职位名称下寻找关键字。
That works fine for a chronological resume. But when you use a functional resume, there are no duties (and, therefore, no keywords), tied to a specific title. But with a hybrid resume, you’ve got some of the keywords tied to a job title, which improves your chances with the ATS.
这对于按时间顺序排列的简历来说效果很好。但是,当您使用功能性简历时,就没有与特定职位相关的职责(因此也没有关键字)。但通过混合简历,您可以获得一些与职位相关的关键词,这会提高您获得 ATS 的机会。
Highlights Career Growth
突出职业发展
The problem with a functional resume it that it doesn’t necessarily give you a chance to show off your career growth or career progression. When you’re only listing places of employment and job titles without job duties or accomplishments with it, the titles are almost meaningless. You can call yourself the Senior VP of Customer Relations, but what does that mean? Did you answer phones all day in a call center, or did you create customer retention strategies?
功能性简历的问题在于它不一定给你机会展示你的职业成长或职业发展。当你只列出工作地点和职称而没有工作职责或成就时,这些职称几乎毫无意义。您可以称自己为客户关系高级副总裁,但这意味着什么?您是否整天在呼叫中心接听电话,或者是否制定了客户保留策略?
Using a combination resume allows you to draw focus to all the skills you’ve learned in all your jobs over time. And it also gives you a way to demonstrate career growth. By listing off a few job duties, you can show that you were gradually given more responsibilities, even if that’s not always reflected in the title.
使用组合简历可以让您将重点放在您在所有工作中随着时间的推移学到的所有技能。它还为您提供了一种展示职业发展的方法。通过列出一些工作职责,你可以表明你逐渐被赋予了更多的责任,即使这并不总是反映在头衔中。
Smooths over Employment Gaps
缩小就业差距
One of the biggest drawbacks of using a chronological resume is that it makes employment gaps glaringly obvious, and there’s no way to downplay it. The advantage of a functional resume is that it’s easier to downplay a gap in employment history. However, most recruiters know this and immediately think you’re hiding something if you’re using a functional resume.
使用按时间顺序排列的简历的最大缺点之一是,它使就业差距变得非常明显,而且没有办法淡化它。功能性简历的优点是更容易淡化工作经历中的差距。然而,大多数招聘人员都知道这一点,并且如果您使用功能性简历,就会立即认为您在隐藏某些东西。
While there is no way to hide any employment gap, a hybrid resume gives you a chance to show recruiters that your employment gap is not that big of a deal. By first drawing attention to your skills, then demonstrating that you’ve grown and progressed in your career, you may be able to overcome any fears an employer has about your gap.
虽然没有办法隐藏任何就业差距,但混合简历让您有机会向招聘人员表明您的就业差距并不是那么大。通过首先引起人们对你的技能的关注,然后证明你在职业生涯中的成长和进步,你也许能够克服雇主对你的差距的任何恐惧。
Good for a Career Pivot
有利于职业转型
Hybrid resumes are also great for career changers. One of the advantages of a functional resume for career changers is that it gives them a format to highlight their transferable skills when they lack direct experience in their new field.
混合简历对于转行者来说也非常有用。对于转行者来说,功能性简历的优点之一是,当他们在新领域缺乏直接经验时,它为他们提供了一种突出其可转移技能的格式。
However, with a functional resume, you can’t show off your career progression. With a hybrid resume, you can show how, over time, you were trusted with more and more responsibility. While that experience may not relate directly to the new field, the soft skills you’ve picked up (and likely some hard ones, too), show that you might be the right hire.
然而,有了一份实用的简历,你就不能炫耀你的职业发展。通过混合简历,您可以展示随着时间的推移,您如何被信任并承担越来越多的责任。虽然这种经验可能与新领域没有直接关系,但您所掌握的软技能(也可能还有一些硬技能)表明您可能是合适的雇员。
Combination Resume Pitfalls to Avoid
要避免的组合简历陷阱
While hybrid resumes are gaining in popularity, that doesn’t make them “perfect.” There are several instances where you should consider skipping the hybrid format.
虽然混合简历越来越受欢迎,但这并不意味着它们“完美”。在某些情况下,您应该考虑跳过混合格式。
Doesn’t Provide Context 不提供上下文
When you use a combination resume, you’re pulling out and highlighting your top skills. But when those top skills aren’t tied to a specific job, some recruiters may pass on your resume because they want to know the context of where you obtained every single skill.
当你使用组合简历时,你就是在突出并突出你的顶尖技能。但是,当这些顶级技能与特定工作无关时,一些招聘人员可能会传递您的简历,因为他们想知道您获得每项技能的背景。
Can be Repetitive 可以重复
On a chronological resume, you list each job title and then all of the job duties and accomplishments under each job. On a functional resume, you list your skills and accomplishments in a “skills” header and don’t tie them to a specific job.
在按时间顺序排列的简历中,您列出每个职位,然后列出每个职位下的所有工作职责和成就。在功能性简历中,您可以在“技能”标题中列出您的技能和成就,并且不要将它们与特定工作联系起来。
When you create a hybrid resume, you’re listing your noteworthy skills at the top of the resume. Then, you’re listing out your job titles and noteworthy duties under each job.
当您创建混合简历时,您会在简历的顶部列出您值得注意的技能。然后,您列出每个职位的职位名称和值得注意的职责。
The job duties list on a combination resume is shorter than on a chronological resume. But that doesn’t mean you won’t duplicate yourself. While a skill is different from an accomplishment, which is different from a job duty, it’s easy to mix them all up and end up saying the same thing over and over and over again.
组合简历中的工作职责列表比按时间顺序排列的简历中的工作职责列表要短。但这并不意味着你不会复制自己。虽然技能与成就不同,成就与工作职责不同,但很容易将它们混为一谈,最终一遍又一遍地说同样的事情。
Edit yourself often and carefully. Make sure you aren’t saying “team player” in your skills sections, your professional summary, and under your job duties. Mix up the language and make sure you’re listing unique items in each section.
经常仔细地编辑自己。确保您在技能部分、专业总结和工作职责中没有提到“团队合作者”。混合使用语言并确保在每个部分列出独特的项目。
Formatting a Hybrid Resume
格式化混合简历
Formatting a hybrid resume is very similar to a chronological resume, but with a few distinct differences.
混合简历的格式与时间顺序简历非常相似,但有一些明显的差异。
Contact Information 联系信息
Like every other resume format, start with your contact information at the top. At the very least, this should be your name, email, and phone number. If you have a LinkedIn profile or online portfolio, include those links. And, if you want to include social media information, this is the section for it.
与其他简历格式一样,从顶部的联系信息开始。至少,这应该是您的姓名、电子邮件和电话号码。如果您有 LinkedIn 个人资料或在线作品集,请添加这些链接。而且,如果您想包含社交媒体信息,这就是该部分。
Professional Headline 专业头条
Some people include a professional headline. This is not the same as an objective (which really isn’t used anymore). A professional headline explains a little about you and the type of work you’re seeking. It’s similar to a LinkedIn headline. So, feel free to use your LinkedIn headline for inspiration, but don’t copy it!
有些人会添加专业标题。这与目标不同(实际上已经不再使用)。专业的标题可以解释一些关于您和您正在寻找的工作类型的信息。它类似于 LinkedIn 标题。因此,请随意使用您的 LinkedIn 标题来获取灵感,但不要复制它!
A solid, well-written headline is great for all types of job seekers. For example:
一个扎实、写得好的标题适合所有类型的求职者。例如:
For people looking for work in the same field:
对于在同一领域寻找工作的人:
- Senior Accountant at XYZ, experienced with global accounting, financial
XYZ 高级会计师,拥有全球会计、财务经验 - Reporting, Strategic Planning, Cost Analysis, and Budget Analysis
报告、战略规划、成本分析和预算分析 - Product Manager: Cloud Computing and New Products, Strategic Partnerships, SaaS
产品经理:云计算及新产品、战略合作伙伴、SaaS - Cook with extensive fine dining experience
拥有丰富美食经验的厨师
For students: 对于学生:
- Honor roll student with tutoring experience
具有辅导经验的荣誉学生 - Graduating senior with background in customer support
具有客户支持背景的应届毕业生
For career changers: 对于职业改变者:
- Experienced editor skilled in web design
经验丰富的编辑,擅长网页设计 - Graphic designer with extensive experience in copywriting
具有丰富文案经验的平面设计师
Summary Paragraph 摘要段落
The next section is your professional summary paragraph. It’s similar to the professional summary you might use on any resume and is usually titled “Professional Summary,” or something similar. However, on a hybrid resume, the paragraph tends to be a little longer than on a chronological resume because you are taking some of your job duties and summarizing them here.
下一部分是您的专业总结段落。它类似于您可能在任何简历中使用的专业摘要,通常标题为“专业摘要”或类似的名称。然而,在混合简历中,该段落往往比按时间顺序排列的简历要长一些,因为您要承担一些工作职责并在此处进行总结。
Key Skills 关键技能
Just below the summary paragraph is the key skills section. This can be a separate section with a header of “Key Skills” or “Relevant Skills,” for example. Or they can flow right from the summary paragraph.
摘要段落下方是关键技能部分。例如,这可以是一个单独的部分,标题为“关键技能”或“相关技能”。或者它们可以直接从摘要段落开始。
On a functional resume, your skills are grouped by category, then described in detail underneath the category. On a hybrid resume, there are no categories. Instead, the skills are listed, usually in order of importance or ability. While there are no rules, try to start with your hard skills, then move on to your soft skills.
在功能性简历中,您的技能按类别分组,然后在类别下详细描述。在混合简历中,没有类别。相反,技能通常按重要性或能力的顺序列出。虽然没有规则,但请尝试从硬技能开始,然后转向软技能。
Below are some examples of summary paragraphs and key skills sections:
以下是摘要段落和关键技能部分的一些示例:
An accomplished communications leader with a passion for strategic thinking and a commitment to collaboration who excels at creating in uncharted waters. Proven track record of building tactical plans resulting in brand awareness and growth by influencing key stakeholders to reach target goals. A visionary and implementation expert consistently creating and executing events, public relations, and multi-channel marketing plans to ensure that communications strategies are effectively delivered.
一位卓有成就的传播领导者,热衷于战略思考并致力于协作,擅长在未知领域进行创造。在制定战术计划方面拥有良好的记录,通过影响关键利益相关者实现目标来提高品牌知名度和增长。一位富有远见的实施专家,始终如一地创建和执行活动、公共关系和多渠道营销计划,以确保有效地交付传播策略。
Results-driven operations and sales leader with a consistent history of growing revenue. Expertise in establishing and executing processes, procedures, and polices to increase compliance, productivity, and profitability. Skilled in team building, strategic planning, training, and analytics. Successful 10-plus year working history with remote and distributed teams.
以结果为导向的运营和销售领导者,具有持续增长的收入历史。拥有建立和执行流程、程序和政策以提高合规性、生产力和盈利能力的专业知识。擅长团队建设、战略规划、培训和分析。与远程和分布式团队有超过 10 年的成功工作历史。
Keywords 关键词
One of the best job-hunting strategies you can use is to tailor your resume for each job. This doesn’t mean rewriting your resume every time you apply to a new job. It does, however, mean reading over the job description to make sure you are using the right keywords on your resume.
您可以使用的最佳求职策略之一是为每项工作量身定制简历。这并不意味着每次申请新工作时都要重写简历。然而,这确实意味着仔细阅读职位描述,以确保您在简历中使用了正确的关键字。
For example, if a job listing wants someone with “client service” skills, make sure you don’t say you’ve got excellent “customer service” skills. While those might be the same thing to you, they might not be the same thing to the employer. And, if the ATS is programmed to look for “client service,” it won’t see “customer service” and may rank your resume lower.
例如,如果职位列表需要具有“客户服务”技能的人员,请确保您没有说自己拥有出色的“客户服务”技能。虽然这些对您来说可能是同一件事,但对雇主来说可能不是同一件事。而且,如果 ATS 被编程为寻找“客户服务”,它就不会看到“客户服务”,并且可能会降低您的简历排名。
Work History 工作经历
Next up is your work history. You list it just like you would on a chronological resume. Start with your current or most recent job and work your way backward about 10 to 15 years (or to the very beginning, depending on your work history).
接下来是您的工作经历。您可以像在按时间顺序排列的简历中一样列出它。从您当前或最近的工作开始,向后追溯大约 10 到 15 年(或追溯到最开始,具体取决于您的工作经历)。
And, just like a chronological resume, you list relevant duties and accomplishments under each job title. However, on a hybrid resume, you don’t list every skill or duty. Hopefully, you covered most of those in the skills section.
而且,就像按时间顺序排列的简历一样,您可以在每个职位下列出相关的职责和成就。然而,在混合简历中,您不会列出所有技能或职责。希望您已经涵盖了技能部分中的大部分内容。
For this section, pick out a few relevant duties and skills you’d like to highlight in relation to that job. Then, explain what you did and how it benefited the employer. For example, instead of saying, “addressed customer complaints,” consider saying, “proactively addressed customer concerns, resulting in a 92% retention rate.”
在本节中,选择一些您想要强调的与该工作相关的职责和技能。然后,解释你做了什么以及它如何使雇主受益。例如,不要说“解决了客户投诉”,而是考虑说“积极解决客户疑虑,从而实现了 92% 的保留率”。
If approaching your job duties in this method seems daunting, the career experts offer some advice. She tells people to follow the STAR method, and it works like this: “Don’t stop writing after you explain the tasks you performed. Keep writing to include the results of your work. Why was it important to do that task? What was the result? What happened or didn’t happen because of it? Was money or time saved? What was different and better as a result of it?”
如果用这种方法履行你的工作职责似乎令人畏惧,职业专家会提供一些建议。她告诉人们遵循 STAR 方法,它的工作原理是这样的:“在解释完你执行的任务后不要停止写作。继续写下去,包含你的工作成果。为什么完成这项任务很重要?结果如何?因此发生了什么或没有发生什么?节省了金钱或时间吗?结果有什么不同和更好的地方?”
Education and Training 教育和培训
List any education you have in this section, just like you would on any other resume. Mention the name of the school, the dates you attended, and any degree you received. Also, if you have any specialized training, this is the section to mention it in.
在此部分列出您所受的所有教育,就像在任何其他简历中一样。提及学校名称、您就读的日期以及您获得的任何学位。另外,如果您接受过任何专门培训,请在本节中提及。
