Answer When Opportunity Knocks
機(jī)會(huì)敲門時(shí)懂得回應(yīng)
Three years of unemployment didn't prevent Michele (who asked us not to use her last name) from getting a job as a management consultant with a Big Four firm.
三年待業(yè)并沒有阻擋Michele在一家“四大”公司得到業(yè)務(wù)顧問(wèn)工作。
She landed her permanent job by accepting a temporary solution. "My thinking became short-term. [I asked myself]: How do you survive in this market?" she said.
她是通過(guò)接受一份臨時(shí)工作得到這份長(zhǎng)期工作的。她說(shuō),“我的打算變成短期的了。我問(wèn)我自己:你怎么才能在這個(gè)行當(dāng)中生存呢?”
Through a friend, Michele landed a contract position. It wasn't her ideal job, and she was overqualified for the position. But she was willing to work for people who had less experience than she did.

Craft a Cover Letter That Stands Out
寫一封出眾的求職信
After graduating from law school, Autumn Leach wanted to find a job quickly. She drafted a cover letter that accentuated her unique experience and made her stand out as a candidate.

"I had the standard entry-level lawyer resume that you have to use, but I used the cover letter to introduce myself more," said Leach.
Leach說(shuō),“我有標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的入門律師簡(jiǎn)歷,這你也得用,但是我用了求職信更多的介紹了我自己。”

“我提到了我曾參與過(guò)圣地亞哥的一場(chǎng)政治選舉中,我現(xiàn)在的老板正想進(jìn)入安克雷奇的議會(huì),這讓他對(duì)我很感興趣,這一步我走的很對(duì)。”

在被一家廣告公司任命為創(chuàng)意總監(jiān)的時(shí)候,Curtis Potter甚至還沒積極的尋找全職工作哪。他把這份新工作歸功于他可靠的職業(yè)人際關(guān)系。
Potter had left his most recent job on good terms and had stayed in touch with his boss when he moved cross-country.
Potter離開最近一份工作的時(shí)候氣氛是很愉快的,他搬到另外一個(gè)城市的時(shí)候也和老板保持了聯(lián)系。

Potter說(shuō),“不管我什么時(shí)候回到西海岸都會(huì)去拜訪他,他來(lái)紐約的時(shí)候我們也會(huì)一起吃飯。”

Potter還在紐約內(nèi)外都打造了強(qiáng)大的人脈。

Potter說(shuō),“一位前同事從一家當(dāng)?shù)刂薪榻o我打電話告訴了我這份工作,我發(fā)了簡(jiǎn)歷過(guò)去,她跟她的老板提到了我,他們看了我的簡(jiǎn)歷,結(jié)果發(fā)現(xiàn)他們認(rèn)識(shí)我以前的雇主。”
