怎样写好英文求职自荐信
Be specific.
具体化。
Don't respond to an ad for a copywriter when you're really a graphic designer, says Diana Qasabian, talent director at Syndicatebleu. "It may be the tight job market, but we've been receiving more and more letters responding to a specific job from candidates who are not at all qualified for it," she says.
Syndicatebleu的天才主管Diana Qasabian建议说：“如果你是一个平面设计师，就不要发求职信给一份广告编辑的工作。也许求职市场的竞争很激励，但是我们收到了很多并不适合该份工作的求职者发来的求职信。
"We look for specifics in email cover letters, which means skills and abilities. Embellishment and fluff are not necessary. It's not necessary to write, 'I'm a hard worker.' That goes without saying," she says.
她说：“在邮件求职信中，我们需要的是专业对口的求职者，这就意味着要求技能和能力与工作相符。华丽的润色是完全没有必要的。如果你在求职信中写“我工作很努力”，那相当于是白写了。”
Keywords are key.
关键词很重要。
Because many companies use applicant tracking systems (ATS) to find and screen candidates, skill-oriented keywords will boost your chance at being discovered, a recruiter at a large technology company tells us.
一家大型科技公司的猎头跟我们披露，因为很多公司利用候选人追踪系统去搜寻和筛选候选人，技巧性的关键词能增大你呗搜寻到的机会，
"ATS tools track keywords that identify skill sets," she said. "So even if you're not right for the job you're seeking, strong keywords improve the chance that your cover letter and resume will be retrieved in a future search or be selected for a more appropriate job."
ATS系统可根据关键词追踪查询技能技巧。所以即使你不适合这份工作，优秀的关键词也可以增加你的简历和推荐信在将来被重视的机会，或者说它们可以增大你将来找到合适工作的机会。
Play by their rules.
根据他们的规则行事。
Take the time to learn the company guidelines for submitting resumes, and follow them. Many companies list these guidelines on their websites. Also, don't include attachments unless they are requested. Some companies block all emails with attachments to prevent viruses.
通过总结简历而学习了解公司的指导方针，并且遵从该公司的指导方针。很多公司都将指导方针放在网站上。并且，除非他们有要求，否则发邮件的时候不要带附件。因为很多公司为了预防病毒而阻隔带附件的邮件。
Check it again.
仔细的再检查一遍。
You must thoroughly spell-check and proofread your email letter. And remember, your email software's spellchecker won't catch grammar mistakes. Send it to a friend first and ask him or her to check for the content and style. If all your friends are tapped out, or even if they aren't, test your email cover letter by emailing it to yourself, and put yourself in the mindset of an employer when you read it.
你必需全面检查以及校正你的邮件。且记住，邮件自动检查工具不会处理语法错误。在发出之前先发给一个朋友，让他帮忙检查内容和格式是否正确。在你朋友检查完之后，或者他们不帮你检查的话，将邮件先发给自己，以一个雇主的立场去读读自己的自荐信。
