让你的简历更抢手（中/英）

让我们面对这个现实吧：所有的其他条件都一样，老板们会更愿意招聘那些住在当地的求职者，而不愿选择那些住在城区以外的应聘者。因为这样能够更方便的安排面试，也不用为员工安排住宿而费心伤财了。但是来自Monster的数据表明，大约有一半的求职者愿意为了工作方便而迁移自己的住所。
　　如果你正打算搬家或者有迁移住所的想法，按照以下这些贴士说的做，你就可以让你的简历更容易被招聘者注意到了：
　　写上所有你愿意定居的地方
　　在简历制作程序的“志愿工作地区”一栏里列出所有你愿意工作的地点。在这一栏里，你也应该回答你愿意为了工作而搬迁。当招聘者在查看简历的时候，他们可以选择那些住在本地或者愿意在本地工作的求职者。所以一定要确保自己能够榜上有名。
　　把愿意迁移住所放在简历的开头
　　在简历制作程序的工作目标部分详细叙述你可以搬迁到哪些地方。如果你准备搬到某一个具体的地区，像“寻找达拉斯地区的工作职位”这样的陈述能够很好的表达你的意思。如果你的选择比较灵活，写上一句：“愿意搬到全国的任何地方”或者“可以搬到东北地区”。如果你有很明确的搬迁计划，你可以说“2004年10月将会搬到芝加哥。”
　　在说明信里表明自己的情况
　　你的说明信是说明你的情况的最合适的地方。这里给出表达自己搬迁意愿的几种方式：
　　?准备到某个地方工作和生活：“我愿意在2004年9月搬到洛杉矶居住。你提供的工作正是我所追求的挑战，并且我也非常希望能够有机会和您面谈。”
　　?回到你的家乡（这能够显示出你的根在那儿，因而你会长久的留在那里）：“尽管我在现在的职位上取得了一些成绩，我还是期望能够回到爱荷华州的博伊西长久工作。”不用担心，你可以幽默一些，或者提及家乡与众不同的地方，比如说球队或者天气等。
　　?让自己有更多的选择：在我职业生涯的这一重要时刻，我正在寻找一个最适合自己的工作岗位，所以我愿意为合适的工作机会而搬迁住处。
　　参加面试
　　如果你打算在某个地区工作，先准备好在那个地方呆上一个星期左右的时间来参加与老板面对面的面试。你的说明信里可以提到你在某一段时间内可以在这里参加面试。你也可以向招聘者建议用电话面试的方式来进行沟通。如果双方彼此都有兴趣的话，再安排见面。
　　考虑提出自付搬迁费用
　　有些拥有特殊才能的专业人员非常的抢手，并且有些老板也非常乐意支付员工的搬迁费用，提供婚姻住屋补贴，甚至为员工在这个地区找一个新的房子。这些专业人才通常能够通过谈判得到一份不错的搬迁补贴方案。
　　而其他的应聘者在寻找工作的过程中则要面临更多的竞争，面临当地的条件相同的求职者的强力挑战。如果是这样的话，考虑一下，如果你愿意支付搬迁费用，你能够得到更多的机会。在说明信里，用一句话说明你的这一“卖点”，比如：“我对您提供的这个工作机会非常感兴趣，我愿意自己支付所有的搬迁费用”，或者“我愿意9月份自己支付费用搬迁到杰克逊维尔。”
　　不要使用别人的地址
　　有些人为了在找工作的过程中占得先机，胡编乱造自己的地址。这有可能会导致一些问题。如果你现在的工作在某个城市，而你真正的住址却在很远的地方，招聘经理可能会感到很疑惑或者觉得你的地址会让人误解。如果你被要求参加一个面试，而你不能够马上赶到那里，更多的问题就会接踵而至。然后谈话就会很令人尴尬——你并不真正住在市区里。对于你住在哪里最好诚实一点，用上面给出的这些策略来告诉老板，你已经做好准备为这个不错的工作机会背起行囊了。
Rev Up Your Resume to Relocate
Let's face it: All other things being equal, employers would rather recruit local applicants than out-of-towners. It's more convenient to schedule interviews and there are no hassles or cost concerns associated with relocation. But according to Monster data, about half of all job seekers are willing to move for the right job.
If you're planning to move or just open to the idea of relocation, follow these tips to get your resume noticed.
Add All Target Locations
List all potential locations in the Resume Builder's Target Locations field. In the same section, answer yes to the i am willing to relocate. When employers search resumes, they have the option to include job seekers who both reside in or are willing to work in the selected locations, so be sure your name makes their hit list.
Mention Relocation at the Top of Your Resume
Use the Resume Builder's Objective field to specify your relocation availability. If you're targeting a specific area, a statement such as searching for a position in the Dallas area?gets the point across. If you're more flexible, include a line such as available to relocate nationwide or open to relocation to the you have firm plans to move, you can say relocating to Chicago in October 2004.
Elaborate in Your Cover Letter
Your cover letter is the perfect place to explain your situation. Here are a few ways to word your relocation preferences:
?Targeting a specific area: at lease note that I will be relocating to Los Angeles in September 2004. Your opening presents the precise challenge I am seeking, and I would welcome the chance to discuss this opportunity with you.
?Returning to your hometown (this shows that you have roots in the target location, so you're more likely to stay put this time): although I have been successful in my current position, I am eager to make a permanent move back to 't be afraid to use humor and mention something unique to the town, such as the home team or weather.
?Keeping your options open: at this point in my career, I am searching for a position that would be a perfect fit, so I am open to relocating for the right opportunity.
Be Available for Interviews
If you're targeting a specific area, plan to be available in the location for a week or so to attend face-to-face interviews. Your cover letter can mention that you will be available for interviews in the location for a certain period of time. You may also suggest an initial phone interview, and then arrange to meet in person if there is mutual interest.
Consider Offering to Pay Relocation Expenses
Some professionals with desirable credentials are aggressively recruited, and some employers are more than willing to pay for relocation, offer spousal relocation assistance and even help find a new house in the new location. These professionals can usually negotiate an attractive relocation package.
Other candidates face a more competitive job search, going up against local job seekers who may have comparable qualifications. If so, consider that more doors could be opened if you are willing to pay relocation costs. Use this as a selling point in your cover letter with a line such as, at lease note that I am very interested in your opportunity and am willing to incur all relocation expenses or i will be relocating to Jacksonville in September at my own expense.
Don't Use Someone Else's Address
Some folks try to get an edge in a long-distance job search by fudging the address. This can cause problems; if your current job is located in one city and your address is far away, the hiring manager will probably be confused or concerned that your address was misleading. More problems may ensue if you're called for an interview and you're unable to get there right away. Then there's the uncomfortable discussion that you don't actually live in town. It's better to be honest about where you're living and use the above resume and cover letter strategies to show you're ready to pack your bags for the right opportunity.
