Request for a new job. What requirements must a new place of work meet?

There are three sections in a resume that, when written correctly, create the effect of live communication with the employer . They are the main advantage in your favor; they fully reflect your professionalism, strength of personality and understanding of the interests of the employer. These are sections such as " target", "professional skills ", "personal qualities ". What's the secret here?And the secret is in the logic of your actions aimed at mutually beneficial cooperation with the employer!

How it works?

Target- this is your global vision of the process of investing your professionalism in a certain business structure, your motivation, a clear explanation of your own position. The objective should be the fundamental basis for the further structure of the resume.

Professional skills - this is (remember geometry - proof of theorems) confirmation goals and a more detailed description of your own professionalism.

After professional skills comes a section on professional experience, which, logically, serves only as an intermediate link to prove the existence and deciphering of your professional skills (what exactly we practiced / did, when, where and how), so that the employer understands that with xx .xx to xx.xx, in the production company "X" you were involved, for example, in supplying production, where you received, for example, the skill of interacting with Chinese suppliers, and learned how to maintain relationships with direct manufacturers.

Personal qualities- this is what should logically complete the created structure and serve as a “proof of the theorem”.

How to do it?

Personal qualities should be the final proof because:

a) Your psychological portrait speaks of a purposeful choice of profession;

b) The character description corresponds to professional skills and logically completes the topic;

c) The personal motives you described fit perfectly with the intended goal.

Now the details...

To begin, decide on purpose, imagine what kind of company you would like to work for and what value you would add through your activities. To do this, you need to focus on the end product of your work. What are you doing? What are you a pro at? The end product of a fisherman is a caught fish, and a builder’s is a high-quality and timely delivery of an object. How can you show off, for example, if you are a secretary, accountant or manager? Here, in no case should one place emphasis on the current process of activity as such; attention should be focused on the benefits of your stay in the company , that is, move from the final product. Only this way the employer will be able to make sure that you understand your purpose for their organization. For example, if you are a system administrator, then it would be nice to read in your resume:

Target- Work in a promising, developing company interested in a well-functioning IT structure.

Desired activity: organization of uninterrupted operation of the computer network, as well as all specialized programs and the Internet. Optimization and creation of maximum convenience for users, which ultimately should help reduce the time spent by users and concentrate them as much as possible on the main tasks.

Do you see? The system administrator here does not list how he will do this, does not list his “functionally current, incomprehensible fuss,” he says, WHAT IS HE GOING TO DO for the organization, which means that he understands his own purpose and the end product of his work.

Also detailed and accessible you can describe the goal of any specialist, who does not strive to take a more comfortable place (which employers really don’t like), but is going to bring real benefits with his professionalism and knows how to do it. So think about how you can create value for the organization, then smoothly and in a language that employers can understand. describe the end product of your activity. Under no circumstances list in this section the functionality that you performed previously; there are other columns for this, for example, “professional experience.”

Target - this is what you are striving for now, what you are counting on, what you may be dreaming about. The employer has the right to know your motivation, plans, wishes for your future job, and you have the right to openly express this. Therefore, in the section " target“You can also indicate the motivation and reason for looking for a new job, since in any case this question will be asked to you first at the interview. Isn’t it better to dot all the i’s right away?!

For example:

Motivation/wishes for a new job:

Decent salary, opportunity to grow and improve your professional level, interesting projects, registration according to the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

Reason for looking for a new job:

The desire to implement the knowledge acquired at the last place of study (unfortunately at the last place of work it was not in demand), the search for opportunities for the most productive use of my rich experience in the XXXXX field. And the main thing is the desire to be a sought-after specialist, to be useful, working with maximum efficiency.

Don't think that your resume should fit on one page, that's a lazy idea. It would be better if it contained complete information, the most important thing is that what you wrote was easy and interesting to read. This is the main attraction and highlight.

Previously in the section target it was customary to write only the position for which you are applying, and not for the benefit of perception, but simply for brevity. But, excuse me, how can you explain your true goal with just a job title?! Especially if in ten different companies this position may have ten different options for functionality. Therefore, we will not do anything bad to the employer if we specifically and clearly explain how we understand this very position and what functionality we put into this concept.

Now let's summarize...

You clearly and competently described the goal. A start. But that's not all. Now your task is to make your resume logical and easy to understand. To do this, you need the goal, which contains your global goals, to logically and smoothly flow into other sections that will serve as confirmation of the correctness of your choice.

How to achieve this?

Next section - career objective .

The position must correspond to the goal ↔ professional skills (next section) must correspond to the goal and be proof that you have enough tools and methods in your arsenal to realize the intended goal ↔ personal qualities should serve as a logical conclusion.

Read more about the "professional skills" section

What is the difference?

Professional skills are what you can do, and personal qualities are what you are as a person with its potential.

Here is an example of how to correctly and logically describe professional skills

Logistics specialist with a high level of English. 8 years of experience in this area.

Key skills:

Construction of optimal logistics chains for the movement of goods, development of strategic decisions, development of logistics schemes taking into account increasing competition, determination of tariff policy, successful sales and procurement skills. Knowledge of INCOTERMS, HS, as well as all transport documentation for international transport. Work in the Platinum-server program, 1C, theoretical knowledge of SAP, KPI, ERP systems.

Don't show weakness, since this is nothing more than a demonstration of infantilism and helplessness. That is, you can describe both your strengths and weaknesses in the same section, but do not be frank under any circumstances , write only what can be useful for business.

An example of a description of personal qualities:

The ability to think analytically, build diagrams and predict business processes. Developed intuition. Mobility. The ability to quickly find and establish the necessary contacts and connections in an unfamiliar environment. The ability to maintain control in crisis situations. Energy. Determination and perseverance. Business orientation. The ability to quickly see “your” team (talented youth) and the ability to motivate them and quickly train them for the tasks of the project.

Another example:

I consider myself a promising, novice specialist who can be useful and in demand for the company. I have all the necessary qualities for this: loyalty and respect for the interests of the company, patience, perseverance, desire to achieve goals, reliability. I take my job responsibilities responsibly, I will always come to the aid of my colleagues and to meet my manager. I am ready to invest my efforts in a company that is equally loyal to its specialists and is ready to invest in their development. I prefer long and fruitful cooperation.

This style of presentation has recently entered the employment environment and is already appreciated by employers.

To get the desired position at the company that seems most suitable, you should know how to write a resume correctly. The sample offered to the applicant at the end of this article can be used as a template. But the compilation process itself, of course, is a purely personal matter.

Step one: getting to know the requirements for the applicant

Before writing a resume, you should carefully familiarize yourself with the future employer:

talk to the personnel already working at the enterprise;
find information about your desired place of work on the Internet;
go to the business card website, if there is one.

All this is necessary in order to determine for yourself the range of requirements for applicants. It’s no secret that by writing your resume correctly, you increase your chances of success.

Step Two: Planning Your Resume

It is very important to know how to build a plan for creating a working resume. It usually consists of 6 points. Therefore, in order to correctly compose a resume, you can use this plan as an example:

personal information;
the applicant's goal;
education;
general experience and experience in a specific field;
Additional Information;
recommendations.

Some, especially larger companies, may ask you to disclose additional information about yourself:

indicate yours in your resume;
describe yours.

Step three: filling out the column with personal information

Before you start writing the right resume, you should understand that it must be meaningful, specific, accurate. And the first thing an employer will see when receiving a resume from a stranger is personal information about him. That is why it is so important to compose the first paragraph of the document in such a way that it is kept within the required framework.

Under point one in the resume, passport information is provided: full name, date of birth, actual and registered address, methods of communication and a clearly indicated time convenient for communication.

Sample of filling out personal information:

Vasilevsky Trifon Nikodimovich, born April 15, 1974, registered Samara region, Kinelsky district, village. Alekseevka, st. Central, no. 12. I actually live in Samara, st. Kakhovskaya, 40, apt. 6. E-mail, tel. 8-927-1234567. Call and write until 23:00 daily.

It is very important to really be in touch at the specified time, otherwise, having encountered silence on the part of the applicant even once, the employer will decide that this is an irresponsible person, not the owner of his word. But by sending him a message by email and immediately receiving a response, he will conclude that this person is an example of accuracy and responsibility.

Step Four: Statement of the Applicant’s Goal

When writing a resume, it is very important to clearly formulate what kind of work the applicant wants to do and why. You should not write general phrases that boil down to vague concepts “I dream of maximum self-realization” or “I need decent pay.”

Will tell you how to compose (fill out) the second paragraph of your resume, sample:

“My goal is to work as a HR manager at this retail outlet, since I have all the necessary qualities to work in this position. I am attracted by the career opportunity that was mentioned in the job offer.”

Step five: filling out the education column

A correctly compiled resume is one that indicates all educational institutions completed and those in which education is still ongoing. The dates of admission and completion of the education process in each specific case must be indicated accurate to the month.

Also, correctly filling out the education column requires indicating the qualifications obtained, that is, profession, academic degree, and clarifying the availability of a certificate.

But the question of whether the school should be listed can be controversial. If general secondary education is the only one, then this information is necessary. But in other cases it is permissible to omit it. Although there is a reason to include data on secondary education if the school (lyceum, college) completed by the applicant was prestigious.

Since each resume is compiled for a specific position, there is no need to list all information about additional education. You should highlight only those that can help you get exactly the job that the applicant dreams of. That is, in order to get a correct, specific resume, you can take the following template for filling out paragraph 3 as a sample:

Ulyanovsk Order of the Badge of Honor State Pedagogical Institute named after. I. N. Ulyanova - from July 1977 to July 1983. Awarded the title of teacher of Russian language and literature of secondary school;
Regional advanced training courses for teachers of Russian language and literature (Samara) - January 10, 2000 to February 10, 2000.”

If the applicant gets a job, for example, as a specialist in the housing department, then these courses should not be mentioned when drawing up a resume. But mentioning courses in computer technology today will give you a plus for getting almost any position.

It would be the right thing to do if the future teacher includes cutting and sewing courses in his data, although they do not directly indicate the applicant’s professional suitability. However, this fact can be decisive if the educational institution has an additional vacancy for club work.

Step six: filling out data on length of service and work experience

Before writing your resume, you need to read an example of how to correctly fill out this column. It would be correct if places of work are indicated in reverse order relative to chronology. An example of this order:

05/12/2000 – 11/13/2013 - Profit-plus Company - Financial Director
02/20/1997 – 04/10/2000 - “Fund for Helping Homeless Animals” - chief accountant
11/10/1995 – 01/30/1997 - Eucalyptus Company - accountant

Part-time jobs must be indicated only if the experience of this work is important for obtaining the desired position. Example: you should not indicate part-time work as an office cleaner if the applicant wants to take the position of newspaper editor. But in this case, specifying work as a freelance correspondent for a regional newspaper is not only appropriate, but also extremely profitable.

You can also briefly describe the work being performed, using this excerpt as an example of how to compile this paragraph of a resume:

“Freelance correspondent for the regional newspaper Vremya.” I was instructed to fill out the sections “Police Chronicles” and “Childhood – a Happy Time!” The article about orphans had a public outcry, and as a result, 5 children from the orphanage were placed for adoption into families.”

Step seven: filling in the column with additional data

The resume plan may not contain this column, but it will be better if the applicant finds the necessary data in his biography. This:

knowledge of a foreign language;
computer skills;
possession of office equipment;
presence of driving experience, driver's license;
having a personal car.

For teachers, this may include additional musical education or handicraft skills, their own books, or dance or theater abilities. Athletic achievements can also increase your chance of landing a desired position.

If the applicant is looking for a job for the first time, then most likely you should not include this item in your resume plan. But it is desirable that the compiled resume proves to the employer: an example of a qualified specialist, skillful and knowledgeable, talented and proactive - this is exactly him applying for the position.

Therefore, it is very important to discuss this point with former employers in advance. You can receive a recommendation in writing, but it must be certified. It will be a huge advantage for the applicant if the document contains the work phone number of the former employer.

Fityasov Vasily Mironovich worked at TTU as a depot adjuster for 2 years. During this time, he established himself as a neat, intelligent specialist. He was repeatedly awarded and had no penalties. Head of TTU Filimonova M. G. Rab. tel. 234-56-98

Step nine: volume and literacy of the resume

You should not think that it is not so important for a conductor or salesperson to have literacy and speech culture. An educated person is always valued above an ignorant person. Therefore, before taking your resume to work, you should check the template through the “editor” program in Microsoft Office or even seek help from a person who has higher knowledge of the Russian language.

You shouldn’t write too little about yourself, but an overly voluminous resume is unlikely to bring much benefit. This example will tell you how to write a resume correctly.

Fewer flattering self-assessments: “extensive work experience”, “ability to work in a team.” It is advisable that the manager himself draws the conclusions you need from the resume.

You can include in this section a brief description of your personal qualities, for example: sociable, responsible, proactive, etc. Here you can also indicate the possibility of providing recommendations.

For the applicant: requirements for future work

The list of requirements for future work presented by applicants is very diverse. Most job seekers first of all pay attention to the amount of remuneration offered by the employer. The basic requirements for future work also include wishes for the future position, schedule and place of work.

The requirements for a future position consist of the position name entered in the employee’s work book, the nature of the work and the employee’s functional responsibilities. Of course, the future position must correspond to the applicant’s profession and his career goals. If an applicant's education and previous professional experience align with their career goals, this will make it much easier for the applicant to find suitable job openings. But if the applicant decides to change his field of activity and profession, getting a job will be much more difficult. If, however, you want to try yourself in a new position, in this case it is recommended to first try to get a job as an assistant or assistant, having first studied the topic of interest in specialized courses or on your own. In addition, most likely at first you will have to give up your wishes regarding payment. And only after gaining sufficient experience will it be possible to demand from the employer an increase in remuneration for work or look for a new job with a higher salary.

For narrow and experienced specialists, the list of job responsibilities, independence in the implementation of labor functions, prospects for career growth and professional development are very important.

The formal job title must correspond to the actual job responsibilities, otherwise, when changing jobs, you will have to explain to the new employer the reasons for the discrepancies. In the latter case, letters of recommendation and oral recommendations from a previous place of work will help. Job seekers, as a rule, have a negative attitude towards the situation when the entry in the work book does not correspond or does not fully correspond to the functions they perform. The applicant’s consent to such a job may be due either to a difficult situation and an urgent need for income, or to favorable other working conditions offered by the employer.

Requirements for the schedule and location of work are, of course, very important. However, many job seekers are prepared for overtime, irregular working hours, inconvenient schedules, long travel times to work, or the need to travel to work by several modes of transport for the following reasons. Some are attracted by the salary offered, for which they agree to “overwork” or spend extra time on the road. Others - especially young specialists - strive for professional development, rapid mastery of a profession and career growth, for which they are also willing to work hard and travel far. Other reasons are also possible, for example, if there is no suitable job for him near the applicant’s place of residence.

Most applicants strive to work in stable large companies. This gives them confidence in the future. It should be remembered that in young, dynamically developing companies, employees often have much greater prospects for career growth and promotion, and in small companies - opportunities to expand their functional responsibilities and professional development.

Now about career prospects. It is important to decide whether you are planning career growth in this company or will look for a new job after working in the company for some time and gaining the experience you need. The problem is that not all vacant positions involve career growth or any movement within the company. For example, if an employer is looking for a secretary, he is unlikely to hire someone who is planning professional or career development, since this means that he will soon have to look for a new secretary. It should be remembered that some employers have a negative attitude towards the career ambitions of applicants.

Various social benefits serve as additional methods of motivating and encouraging employees. Social payments and social benefits include payment for food, transportation, cellular communication services, vocational training, housing, medical insurance, bonuses, and other additional payments. However, not every organization offers such a social package. But what you should pay attention to is whether the procedure for paying sick leave and vacations for employees in the organization complies with the requirements of labor legislation.

The psychological climate in the team and corporate culture, working methods in the organization, and the communication style of employees are also factors that can influence the choice of place of work. However, it is usually possible to study these factors in detail only after working in the organization for a certain period of time. But you can assess the age composition of the team, office clothing style, organization of workplaces, and the rhythm of work during the interview.

Most applicants have a negative attitude towards the multi-stage interview structure. They consider it inappropriate to come to the company for an interview several times. However, there are also advantages to the additional stages of the interview. The first impression of a company can be deceiving. Having arrived at the organization for the second time, the applicant can evaluate the company, its employees, the convenience of the office and other factors in a more balanced and detailed manner. At the second interview, he will be able to ask questions that fell out of his field of vision the first time. As a rule, the second interview is conducted not by the HR manager, but by a specialist holding a managerial position. It’s good if this is your immediate supervisor, since it is with him that you will work most closely and report to him.

We have provided a far from exhaustive list of applicants’ requirements for their future place of work. Each applicant's wishes for future work differ significantly from each other. Our recruitment agency was faced with situations where applicants for the same vacant position, who had similar education and work experience, presented diametrically opposed requirements for their future place of work. When selecting personnel, our recruitment agency takes into account both the employer’s requirements for the business qualities of applicants and the wishes of applicants for future work, since the conclusion of an employment contract and effective cooperation are impossible without taking into account the interests of both parties to the labor relationship.

Finding a job using the Internet. Writing a resume

Lesson plan

1. How to correctly formulate your requirements and expectations from a new job. Search for work on the Internet.

2. Sources of information about vacancies.

3. Principles of working with vacancies.

4. How to write a resume correctly. Resume structure.

5. Sending your resume by email.

6. Covering letter.

7. Interview rules.

8. Websites to help you find a job.

9. Algorithm for finding a job using the Internet.

This lesson is a clear step-by-step instruction on how to effectively search for work on the Internet.

Until a few years ago, interactions between a candidate and a prospective employer typically involved phone calls, letters, and in-person interviews. Today, more and more people are looking for jobs online by contacting employers and sending their resumes by email.

The online job market is evolving due to technological innovations, consumer awareness and increasing use of the Internet. The capabilities of technology, its range, speed and cost-effectiveness are indisputable facts in favor of the existence and expansion of online employment services.

Thus, having the ability to access the Internet and an information resource on city vacancies, anyone can try to find a job, and an employer can try to find a worker via the Internet.

In this lesson we will learn how to find a job - from searching for a vacancy and compiling and sending a resume to receiving a search result, i.e., until receiving a response.

We'll show you right on the screen how to do it quickly and easily.

Whatever method of job search you choose, you will always need a resume. How to compose it correctly, what it should be, what mistakes you should try to avoid when compiling it, how to send your resume correctly by email - this will be discussed further.

We study the demand and requirements of employers (websites, media, etc.)

Having decided on the industry, type of activity and position level, we begin to study the labor market. We stock up on newspapers and magazines about work, search on the Internet for all regional sites with employer offers and look, read, count. Having looked through the offered vacancies, you can very roughly draw the general picture: which specialties are most in demand, full-time or part-time, possible salary - from minimum to maximum. Now analyze the basic requirements that employers place on applicants: age, education, knowledge, skills and abilities, work experience, etc. Do you have the right qualities?

Let's say right away that the picture is not complete. Less than half of job offers for lower positions and no more than 10% of job offers for managerial and specialist positions are published in newspapers and the Internet. Typically, employers fill these vacancies through employment agencies, advertisements in regular newspapers, their own personnel services, and other means.

We determine the requirements for future work.

We create a resume.

Target: Please indicate the exact title of the position you would like to receive. Its wording must exactly match how it was stated by the employer.

Errors: Some people write instead of a position “I would like to receive one that would correspond to my education and work experience and could benefit your company for its further successful development.” This kind of formulation causes confusion among the employer and does not find support. It is clear that the person himself has little idea of what exactly he could do and, as it were, invites the employer to solve a crossword puzzle - carefully study the resume and find the correct answer, putting it in the “position” column.

Do not list multiple positions at once. This will reduce your chances. A company requires a specialist for a specific position.

A resume is a short form of presentation of basic personal and professional data; it is a laconic self-presentation, designed for a quick reading by the employer.

We indicate personal information.

Introduce yourself:

2. Contact addresses (including email) and telephone numbers.

Errors:

Quite often, the text gives the wrong email address from which the email with the resume was sent. If a candidate claims to be computer proficient, this is a mistake. You must send your resume only from the address that appears in the text of your resume.

Experience.

This is the most important and longest section of the resume. Only “bare” facts should be presented in detail, avoiding flattering self-assessments such as “extensive work experience”, “ability to work in a team”, “good organizational skills”, etc. The resume is drawn up so that the manager himself draws the conclusions you need. Let the facts speak for you.

If your work was of a project nature (programmer, designer), then list all your projects that lasted more than one month. If the work is homogeneous or is not of a project nature (manager, salesperson), then highlight some features and types of work in your work (for example, working with a certain large customer or supplier).

It is in your best interest to make the list as long as possible. The more experience you have, the better your chances of getting a job. Do not neglect to mention coursework, diplomas, scientific papers, all kinds of extra jobs, etc. All of this - large projects or small ones - one way or another constitutes your real experience, which must certainly be reflected in your track record.

Works (projects) and employers must be listed in reverse chronological order, i.e. the last work should be recorded first, the penultimate work second, etc.

Career. Place of work, position for 5-10 years. Your career growth.

Use action verbs as much as possible.

It is necessary to be extremely specific in the choice of wording:

You should not write:

was engaged in training;
helped reduce errors;

· I quickly learn new knowledge

· trained two new employees;

Don't be verbose and avoid passive forms:

You should not write:

· was responsible for implementation;

· found application for the following possibilities;

· was responsible for.

· completed;

· used effectively;

· was responsible for.

Prefer positive information over negative information

You should not write:

· resolved complaints against;

· prevented a decrease in the share of sales;

· transferred from his position.

· assisted clients in;

· increased the potential of the product on the market;

· promoted to position.

Focus on your achievements

You should not write:

· worked there for three years;

· did extra work.

· received a promotion and two pay increases;

· always completed the work on time.

Education.

Indicate where, when and what educational institution you graduated from, and also (if you recently graduated from a university) what your grades were, if, of course, they are your “plus”. If you studied at a university or are currently engaged in science, indicate your scientific specialization, academic degree, academic title.

It is necessary to list all kinds of awards from various competitions, olympiads, conferences, the presence of honors diplomas, etc. Write in detail, indicate the faculty and specialization. Don't forget also about advanced training courses and internships, even if they were one-day ones.

You should not write which school you graduated from and with what grades: you may get the impression that you have nothing else to boast about.

Additional data.

If the specifics of your future work require this, be sure to indicate:

Proficiency in a foreign language. You should not overestimate the level of your knowledge of a foreign language: you will have to work; a preliminary check of your level of knowledge by an employer or recruitment agency is possible. The following gradation is usually accepted: entry level, good knowledge, fluency.
Work with computer. If you are not a programmer or an advanced user, we would recommend consulting with someone knowledgeable about the correct names of the packages you are working with. You must indicate your knowledge of accounting programs, as well as special programs, for example, graphic editors. It is also necessary to note knowledge of the Internet and the ability to use e-mail, which are not quite the same thing, as some people think.
Knowledge of office equipment. Assumes the ability to work with office mini-PBX, copier, and fax.
Driver's license, availability of a car.

First case- if your recommenders agree to communicate with your future employers about you and your successes. Of course, you can only place the phone number of a former director on your resume if the director has given his consent.

Thus, you inform the potential employer that by calling the indicated numbers, he will receive personal recommendations from people you have previously worked with.

Second option- when a former manager or partner (or maybe a client) writes you a letter of recommendation in full form: on letterhead, with signatures and seals, and so on. You can photograph such a letter in several copies and show the original at interviews, and attach a copy to your resume.

So, if you have a letter of recommendation and if you are sending your resume by fax or email, the body of your resume can indicate that you have letters of recommendation from such and such people and that during a personal meeting you can demonstrate these letters.

What's better?It's hard to say for sure. Some employers believe more in personal contact with the recommender and are confident that the letter can be forged. Some people do not trust telephone calls, being sure that dummies can answer, but at the same time they trust letterheads. Thus, you can simply not guess for a single vacancy...

Design (font, style).

CV writing style:

· brevity;

· specificity;

· honesty.

Avoid using a pronoun I.

Make sure your resume is formatted in the same style.

Choose a style that is easy to read (large margins, not small font, sufficient space between lines, etc.).

Use good quality white paper.

It is very important to fit your resume on one, maximum two pages.

Credibility.

There is not and cannot be a single resume for all occasions that could be sent to all companies without changes. Each time, you should first think about what qualities will be valued in a new job, and modify your resume in accordance with them.

The information provided in the resume must be accurate. Don't leave any blank spots on your resume. And most importantly, the resume should be short: no more than one to one and a half pages. Your ability to clearly formulate and present briefly is an indicator of a high level of general culture.

After writing your resume, you need to start searching for the right vacancy. We look for vacancies, send resumes, post resumes on websites.

The finished resume can be sent to potential employers by mail, fax or e-mail.

Typically, job seekers are concerned about the correct composition and formatting of their resume, but few think about how to correctly send it to the employer. If you make mistakes when submitting, there is a chance that your resume will not be read. What should you consider when sending your resume to an employer by email?

Pay attention to accuracy and technical competence. The letter will create a good first impression about you with the employer.

Technical Tips:

When setting up your email, the installation program will ask you for your first and last name, write them in Latin letters. For example, Ivan Ivanov. The recipient will see the data you entered in the "From" field. The use of Russian letters in the first and last name is undesirable - due to discrepancies in encodings, the employer may see a set of unreadable characters in this field. The use of pseudonyms is not recommended.

Your mailing address should be neutral, preferably short. For example: mailing addresses with the words “little devil”, “honey”, “macho” will cause negativity from the employer;

In the "Message Subject" field, write "resume" followed by the position name. Large companies often ask you to indicate the job code on your resume. Sometimes it is necessary to indicate the name of the HR manager. There may be other requirements, since the company may have several dozen vacancies open. Failure to comply with the requirements indicates the inattention and lack of discipline of the applicant, and ultimately, a disrespectful attitude towards the employing company.

Usually the resume is located in a file attached to the letter. In this case, the file must be in either TXT or RTF format. You should not use the Microsoft Word DOC format - viruses can be transmitted through it. Some employers do not consider resumes in DOC format as a matter of principle. To save a document in RTF format in the Microsoft Word editor, in the "File" menu, select "Save as..." and then in the "File type" field, select "Text in RTF format". Ignore the message that some formatting may be lost. After saving, close the file, then open it again and check its readability. Name the resume file in Latin letters, for example "resume.rtf" or "Ivan Ivanov.rtf".

When writing a resume, do not get carried away with complex design or inserting tables and pictures into the document. Use Arial or Times New Roman fonts. Other fonts may not be available in the recipient's settings, and the resume will be impossible to read.

The body of the letter contains a brief covering note with a greeting and indicating the purpose of sending the resume. It is advisable to send it in plain text format (text with minimal functionality) in Windows-1251 encoding. It is allowed to use K0I-8R encoding. Otherwise, there is a high probability that the letter will be erased without reading. The best way to start a cover note is with an address. If the name of the employee is unknown, limit yourself to a general address: “Dear employees of the company’s personnel service...” Next, your covering note should include the name of the position for which you are applying. It would be useful to indicate where the information about the vacancy came from. Don't forget about the signature "with respect...", "I hope for further cooperation...".

After sending your resume by e-mail, check your mailbox daily. Promptness is important if you are sent an invitation to an interview by email.

A widespread mistake is preparing a resume in the form of a single faceless multi-page table-questionnaire, consisting of certain assessments of the candidate that he gave himself.

The main disadvantage of this solution is that a sample application form is usually taken on the Internet from the website of a specific organization, which has its own characteristics and specific requirements for the candidate.

When replacing a resume with a table, it is impossible to assess the professional and human potential of the candidate. Only free form and the presence of a track record make it possible to evaluate individuality and practical skills and separate them from formalized self-esteem.

If the employer has requirements for resume formatting, strictly follow them. If the site only has a table, then attach a regular resume to it, which will significantly increase your chances of being hired.

Electronic resume submission form:

A worthy candidate sends a resume by email with a short cover note and an RTF or DOC file attachment with the name as their last name.

The fact is that after reading, the manager usually places the file with the resume on his computer, usually under the candidate’s name. Therefore, you should not send a file named RESUME.RTF or RESUME.DOC - after all, such a file will definitely have to be renamed.

This file is only for you, perhaps it is the only resume, but for the manager it is one of dozens or hundreds. Only a very few candidates will think of saving managers’ time and naming the resume file with their own last name, which indicates that the human factor is taken into account and predisposes the manager to himself.

You should not send your resume to Microsoft Excel: not everyone uses it. In addition, as already mentioned, a table, including an electronic one, is not the best form of presenting a resume.

At the same time, the absence of any formatting can make it difficult to perceive the text of a resume, so Microsoft Word formats are somewhat preferable than, for example, the plain text format (txt or plain-text), which a rare candidate manages to format so that it is easy to understand and looks good. This is easier to achieve with Word.

2. The listing of management positions indicates fairly high ambitions, and perhaps the position of financial manager is considered as a “passing” or reserve position, in which the candidate does not plan to work for a long time.

3. It is not clear from the resume sample what professional experience the candidate has in the field of financial management.

4. It can be assumed that he worked in small companies, where, in addition to financial issues, he also resolved economic and organizational issues.

5. The candidate does not have a Moscow residence permit, which is important for many companies during the initial selection of candidates. It is at the initial stage, when a lot of resumes are received, that this criterion is decisive for many. However, if the candidate is a professional in his field, registration is often not remembered.

6. It is obvious from the resume that the candidate does not have basic specialized education.

This resume could look different (see option below).

Sample resume No. 2

Advantages of the new resume sample:

1. This is a single position, so there is no obvious reason to assume that the candidate is considering other positions.

2. In the “Education” section only information about professional education is left. The agricultural university is specifically indicated by an abbreviation in order to focus the employer’s attention on the specialty, and not on the profile of the educational institution.

3. The number of employees in the companies is indicated. A managerial position in a small company often corresponds in terms of the level of required qualifications and scope of tasks to a specialist position in a large company, and this is the position Sergey is applying for.

4. A more precise formulation of the position at the last place of work places emphasis on professional activities and allows one to move away from the interpretation of the position of deputy director as a manager responsible for a wide range of issues.

5. The dedicated section “Professional Experience” not only reveals in detail what you had to do, but may be of interest to those employers who are looking for an employee to perform a similar range of duties.

6. Salary is indicated. This is exactly the salary of a financial manager in a large company. The given bar is realistic for Sergei and cuts off unattractive offers.

The list of requirements that you present to your future job and employer is extensive and varied. In the first place, of course, are financial problems: the size and regularity of wages. And then let's figure out how much your job requirements correspond to reality and are feasible in the conditions of the modern labor market.

To make your dreams come true, first of all think about what you yourself are ready to offer employers. People with solid professional experience have no difficulty answering the question: “What can you do?” usually not experienced. But those who are looking for work for the first time are at a loss: “I don’t know anything and I can’t do anything. Nobody needs me". We assure you that you are mistaken in assessing yourself so categorically.

First, take a blank sheet of paper and try to remember everything - what kind of education you have, in which subjects studied at school or college you achieved the greatest success. Add to this list the various clubs and electives you attended, participation in conferences and olympiads.

Do not rush to immediately admit that you have no professional experience. Perhaps you helped someone organize their own business, made urgent calculations, typed voluminous text. Or they were on an internship, working part-time during the holidays, or doing practical training.

Try to objectively assess your business and personal qualities. It is worth listening to what your family and friends say about you. You may not agree with their comments, but there is no need to mislead the employer with your “diligence and accuracy” if you lack them.

We hope that such a comprehensive analysis of your capabilities will allow you to gain self-confidence and determine where you should look for work and what professional skills you lack.

Now you can formulate your requirements for future work.

Realistic approach

The standard wishes of applicants look like this:

Company stability. But the stability of the company and the stability of your position are not the same thing. There are organizations where high staff turnover is part of the corporate culture. The average duration of work of their employees ranges from two months to six months. In addition, even very stable companies experience periods of staff reduction, disagreements between founders, etc.

The proximity of the future place of work to the place of residence. Spending 3 hours every day on a one-way trip by public transport is unrealistic for most workers. And the employer himself usually does not agree to such compromises: “You will be so tired that you will not be able to work.” However, an hour and a half on the road to the place of work is normal for most residents of Moscow and the surrounding Moscow region.

I once had to observe how a graduate of a foreign exchange cashier course with no work experience refused a very attractive offer: “I can’t travel an hour and a half to work. Find me a similar place closer to home.” The HR specialist explained for a long time that this was a rare success for her, because such working conditions and such a salary are not offered to beginning specialists. The girl remained unconvinced and missed a good chance.

Strictly standardized working hours. Some companies do not tolerate delays after business hours. It is believed that you do not know how to properly plan and organize your working time. But many organizations have a different point of view. As a rule, secretaries (their working day is focused on the manager) and personnel officers (10-12 interviews a day, and also paperwork!) are late at work. For recruiters and training center managers, their workday continues at home, on the phone. Some of their clients can only be reached late at night. If you find yourself in a company where there are no restrictions on working hours, you should either accept such conditions or immediately refuse to work in this organization.

Career prospects. Your statement that you are planning professional growth is worthy of respect. But sometimes it is not entirely consistent with the goals that the employer sets for itself. One day I was asked to find a secretary for the director of a commercial company. Among the standard professional requirements, one sounded unusual: “No career ambitions.” "What's the matter?" - I asked. “We changed four secretaries over the past year. All of them were promoted and now work as managers. We are tired and want to find someone who likes this particular job.”

Social benefits. High requirements for the social package are justified only if we are talking about highly professional specialists applying for responsible positions. At the same time, it is somewhat strange to hear the extensive list of social benefits that those who are just starting their careers count on during their work.

Nice friendly team. At the same time, specific wishes may be expressed regarding the age of its members (“youth”) or composition (“mixed”). It remains to be reminded that when hiring, the professional qualities of the applicant are first taken into account. Of course, they pay attention to the ability to work in a team, adapt to a team, and non-conflict character, but “a good person” is not a profession.

Competent, polite, understanding chef. The boss, as a rule, demands that his subordinates carry out their instructions, sometimes without explaining anything. Get used to finding and correcting your own mistakes, and then the number of problems will significantly decrease. Note that loyal and democratic leaders usually have tough and authoritarian deputies and vice versa. This is the law of balance in nature and management.

The list of applicants’ requirements for future work does not end here, but try to reduce them to a reasonable minimum and develop compromise solutions in case the answer is: “No, we cannot promise you that.”

Prioritize

Take a clean sheet again and fold it in half vertically. On the left, write your requirements for your future job in order of their importance to you, and on the right, the inconveniences that you are willing to endure in order to fulfill them.

If you are serious about finding compromise options, your list will be reduced to an acceptable minimum and will gain clarity and harmony. Agree, it’s nice to deal with an organized person who is objective about himself and his capabilities.

For all applicants, a resume is their personal file, submitted for review and evaluation to persons involved in personnel selection. It indicates all the data related to work experience, skills and knowledge. But in addition to the fact that in your resume you offer yourself as a future investment for the employer, indicating data that meets the requirements, you can also put several of your requirements, even small ones. For this there is a section “work wishes” or.

First, you indicate the position for which you are applying. If you want to participate in the selection for several open vacancies in a company at once, then make a separate resume for each, or in the purpose of the resume, list all the vacancies for which you are applying. The position must be specified specifically and clearly; you should not use vague phrases like “any highly paid job” or “position to demonstrate creative abilities.” This point is about brevity, so the fewer words, the greater the chance that they will be read.

Here you can also indicate your desired salary level. Of course, most companies, when posting a vacancy on various portals, indicate the future salary, but if you are a really good specialist and adequately evaluate your work, then you can indicate the word “from” in this paragraph, so you will have the opportunity at an interview to convince the employer to pay you a little more now , or after some time, when you demonstrate your abilities.

In addition, in the “work wishes” you can leave your wishes for the work schedule. So, for example, if the vacancy announcement indicates a schedule from Monday to Friday, and you are ready to work on Saturday until lunch, then you can indicate this in this paragraph, you never know, maybe the employer will like such zeal to work. Or if you have a small child in kindergarten, and you cannot work until 17:30, but only until 17:00 in order to have time to pick him up from kindergarten, then you can write this in this paragraph, reducing lunch time by half an hour, or by indicating the start of the working day half an hour earlier than indicated in the vacancy announcement.

This way, the employer will know what you expect from the proposed position and will be able to immediately assess the pros and cons of your candidacy, which will save time for both him and you.

Personal details of the applicant

Contact information (address, phone, email). City of residence. It is also advisable to indicate your age - if it speaks in your favor (despite the legal prohibition of discrimination by gender, age, etc., many HR managers are wary of “age” candidates). Photos can also be considered personal data. Include a strong color photograph on your resume. This is especially important for positions where appearance plays an important role: director, office manager, sales consultant, promoter.

87% of employers prefer a resume with a photo.

additional information

For the applicant: requirements for future work

The formal job title must correspond to the actual job responsibilities, otherwise, when changing jobs, you will have to explain the reasons for the discrepancies to the new employer. In the latter case, letters of recommendation and oral recommendations from a previous place of work will help. Job seekers, as a rule, have a negative attitude towards the situation when the entry in the work book does not correspond or does not fully correspond to the functions they perform. The applicant’s consent to such a job may be due either to a difficult situation and an urgent need for income, or to favorable other working conditions offered by the employer.
