頻率副詞

I often get asked by clients, Linda, I've been looking for a job for the last few months or I've been looking for a job for the last year or longer.

經常有客戶問我，琳達，我過去幾個月一直在找工作，或者過去一年或更長時間一直在找工作。

動名詞

How can I talk about my career gap that doesn't hurt my chances of landing the job offer and that will still make me look good in front of hiring managers?

我該如何談論我的職業差距，才能既不影響我獲得工作機會，又能讓我在招聘經理面前有面子？

現在進行式

Regardless of how long your career gap was or the exact reason for why you had to take a career gap, in this video, I'm gonna share you the exact strategy on what you need to focus on when it comes to talking about your career gaps in front of hiring managers.

不管你的職業空白期有多長，也不管你不得不中斷職業生涯的具體原因是什麼，在本視頻中，我都將與你分享在招聘經理面前談論職業空白期時需要關注的具體策略。

For example, one of my standout and get hired clients, Sharon, was a new mom.

例如，我的一位傑出客戶莎倫（Sharon）是一位新手媽媽。

And on top of that, she was taking time off to pursue additional certifications to round out her registered dietician background.

除此之外，她還利用休息時間考取了其他證書，以完善她的註冊營養師背景。

But balancing her studies and having a baby meant that she was out of work for almost a year.

但是，要兼顧學業和孩子，這意味著她有將近一年的時間沒有工作。

Regardless of this setback, from applying the strategy that you're gonna learn today, in this video, she was able to successfully land a job offer with one of the top rated universities as a registered dietician in their nursing department, all within a few months.

儘管遇到了挫折，但通過運用今天視頻中學到的策略，她在短短几個月內就成功地在一所一流大學的護理系找到了一份註冊營養師的工作。

Now, another client of mine, Shui Yan, had to stay at home to care for an ill family member for three years, so a career gap of three years.

現在，我的另一位客戶水燕不得不在家照顧生病的家人長達三年之久，是以有三年的職業空白期。

Despite this though, she was able to use this method and strategy that I'm gonna teach today and apply it to her job search and she was able to land a job offer as an internal auditor within Silicon Valley in just a few months.

儘管如此，她還是能夠使用我今天要教的方法和策略，並將其應用到求職中，結果在短短几個月內，她就在硅谷找到了一份內部審計員的工作。

Now, really quickly, if you've been looking for a job for the last few months, you've not been getting really any luck, you've not been hearing back or you've not been getting job offers, then I encourage you to sign up for my free masterclass, which the link is down in the description box down below, where you're gonna learn my four key steps on how to elevate your presence so that hiring managers can pick you as the number one choice.

很快，如果你在過去幾個月裡一直在找工作，但一直沒有收穫，沒有迴音，或者沒有收到工作邀請，那麼我鼓勵你報名參加我的免費大師班，鏈接就在下面的描述框裡，在那裡你將學到我的四個關鍵步驟，如何提升你的存在感，讓招聘經理把你作為第一選擇。

The steps you're going to learn are going to be vital in getting you success in your job search, so make sure that you click on the link down below.

你將要學習的步驟對你求職成功至關重要，請務必點擊下面的鏈接。

All right, so now let's get into the strategy.

好了，現在讓我們來談談策略。

What you're going to watch right now is a clip of a recording from a Live With Linda group coaching call that stems from my Stand Out and Get Hired group coaching program.

你現在要看的是 "與琳達一起生活 "小組輔導電話錄音的一個片段，它源自我的 "脫穎而出，獲得聘用 "小組輔導課程。

So essentially, you're getting a sneak peek as a behind-the-scenes insider's view as to how it works in my Stand Out and Get Hired program when someone asks me a question, when one of my clients asks me a question, I'm able to provide them direct answers live over these calls.

是以，當有人問我問題時，當我的客戶問我問題時，我可以通過這些電話現場為他們直接解答。

So take a watch and let me know what you think after it's done.

All right, so now let's move on to question number two.

好了，現在我們來討論第二個問題。

Antonio says, what are the best things to say on the resume when justifying a career gap currently on break?

安東尼奧說，在履歷中說明目前正在休息的職業空白期的理由時，最好說些什麼？

So from a recruiter's perspective, what are the justification they wanna hear?

那麼，從招聘人員的角度來看，他們想聽到的理由是什麼？

How can I make a compelling statement to demonstrate what I do on my break?

我怎樣才能做出令人信服的陳述，來展示我在休息時間所做的工作？

Do we have a formula like those mentioned in the videos to follow in this section?

我們是否有類似視頻中提到的公式可以在本節中遵循？

Where on the resume should we put the career break to best position the Stand Out strategy?

我們應該把職業中斷放在履歷的哪個位置，以便為 "脫穎而出 "戰略提供最佳定位？

Okay, this is my personal opinion, Antonio.

好吧，這是我的個人意見，安東尼奧。

I know that from what you've sent to me in the past, you've told me that you took this break in order to pursue your CPA exams, I believe, and that you believe that you could find another position easily because of your previous role, and that's great, and it just hasn't been happening.

我知道，從你過去給我的信中，你告訴我你這次休息是為了參加註冊會計師考試，我相信，你相信你可以很容易地找到另一個職位，因為你以前的角色，這是偉大的，但它並沒有發生。

So what I say is that for you, considering the fact that it's only been a few months, I know for you it might seem like a long amount of time, but three months, it's not that long, okay?

所以我想說的是，對你來說，考慮到只有幾個月的時間，我知道對你來說可能看起來很長，但三個月，並不長，好嗎？

So you don't necessarily need to be filling that in and highlighting that on your resume that you haven't been employed for the last three months.

是以，你不一定要在履歷上填寫和強調你在過去三個月裡沒有工作。

What you need to do instead is go back to the job that you did have previously and heavily, heavily emphasize that work on that piece, meaning the overarching statement.

相反，你需要做的是回到你之前的工作中去，大力強調那份工作，也就是總體陳述。

Make sure that is as robust as it can be, and again, you learn that in Stand Out and Get Hired.

確保這一點儘可能強大，同樣，你可以在《脫穎而出，獲得聘用》一書中學習到這一點。

You learn the formula for what to include in that overarching statement within your professional experience, and then from there, you're also going to go through the formula for those secondary daily task bullet points, and you're gonna make sure that those are as compelling and robust as possible.

你要學習如何在你的職業經歷中的總體陳述中包含哪些內容的公式，然後，你還要學習那些次要的日常任務要點的公式，你要確保這些要點儘可能令人信服和有力。

Now, I believe you've already done that based on your comment earlier that your resume, based on the strategy, already looks super compelling, which is fantastic.

現在，我相信你已經做到了，因為你之前說過，根據你的策略，你的履歷看起來已經超級引人注目了，這真是太棒了。

That's what you wanna focus on is the role that you previously had.

Don't worry so much about the fact that you've been unemployed.

Now, if they ask you in the interview, you're going to twist it and make sure it's a positive thing and say that during this time, I have been actively looking for the next opportunity.

現在，如果他們在面試時問你，你要曲解一下，確保這是一件積極的事情，並說在這段時間裡，我一直在積極尋找下一個機會。

I've also been pursuing my CPA certification, and so that has kept me busy, but the reason why I'm interested in this opportunity is because from my experience, I have A, B, C skills or experiences or qualifications.

我還在攻讀註冊會計師證書，這讓我忙得不可開交，但我之所以對這個機會感興趣，是因為根據我的經驗，我擁有 A、B、C 三種技能或經驗或資格。

Essentially, you're looking for the keywords that this job specifically wants you to have.

從本質上講，您要尋找的是這份工作特別希望您擁有的關鍵字。

You're going to incorporate that in this answer.

你要把這一點融入到這個答案中。

You're gonna say, I have A, B, C skills and experience as outlined for this position, and that is something that I know I can contribute and add value to in this position and on your team.

你會說，我擁有這個職位所需的 A、B、C 三項技能和經驗，我知道我可以為這個職位和你的團隊做出貢獻並增加價值。

So I'm saying it in a very high-level way.

所以，我說的是一個非常高層次的問題。

You're going to make sure that you speak the way that is natural to you, but the goal is that you're not focusing and highlighting and emphasizing the fact that you've been unemployed.

你要確保自己說話的方式是自然的，但目標是你不要專注、突出和強調自己失業的事實。

It's more about what do you have, what do you bring to the table that is going to be valuable for them?

更重要的是你有什麼，你能為他們帶來什麼價值？

Remember, when it comes to interviews, it's always about what is your value for them?

請記住，在面試時，關鍵是你對他們有什麼價值？

How can you contribute for them, contribute to them and their company, their organization?

你如何才能為他們做出貢獻，為他們和他們的公司、組織做出貢獻？

Don't worry so much about your potential shortcomings.

It's really about where can I add value, and you wanna focus their attention on that.

這其實就是我在哪裡可以增值，你要把他們的注意力集中在這一點上。

You have to remember in interviews, you are the one that has full influence.

你必須記住，在面試中，你才是那個擁有完全影響力的人。

You are the one that has the full control because really what they're doing is they're sitting back and they're listening to every word that's coming out of your mouth, just like you are doing right now.

你才是那個擁有完全控制權的人，因為他們真正在做的是坐在後面，傾聽你嘴裡說出的每一個字，就像你現在做的一樣。

Everything that I'm saying, you're listening to intently, hopefully, and they're gonna do the same as long as you're able to structure your answers and responses in a way that what you're trying to do is you're kind of, I don't wanna use this word, but it's the one thing that really, you're essentially brainwashing them, okay?

我說的每一句話，你都在認真地聽，希望他們也會這樣做，只要你能把你的回答和迴應安排得恰到好處，你要做的就是，我不想用這個詞，但有一點是真的，你基本上是在給他們洗腦，好嗎？

You're influencing them, you're persuading them, you're convincing them that you are exactly the right fit for this position.

你在影響他們，你在說服他們，你在讓他們相信你是這個職位的不二人選。

And so you need to come up with all the right, the full treasure chest of stories, examples, and key reasons why you're the right fit for them.

是以，你需要提供所有正確的、完整的故事、例子和關鍵理由，說明你為什麼適合他們。

And you need to have conviction in what you say because that conviction turns into confident answers.

你需要對自己所說的話有信心，因為這種信心會轉化為自信的回答。

And that confidence is what then will translate to you getting the next round interview and hopefully the job offer, okay?

有了這種自信，你就能通過下一輪面試，並有望獲得工作機會，好嗎？

Anytime where you focus on your shortcomings and your insecurities and all of that, I'm not saying to suppress them.

任何時候，只要你關注自己的缺點和不安全感，我並不是說要壓制它們。

If you have an issue, of course, you address it.

You ask, okay, I don't understand how to answer this question or I'm worried about this.

你會問，好吧，我不知道如何回答這個問題，或者我很擔心這個問題。

Again, the strategy is, how can I turn it into a way that I can talk about how I can contribute to them, how I can add value to them, even if it's a negative question?

同樣，我的策略是，即使是一個負面的問題，我如何將其轉化為我可以談論如何為他們做出貢獻、如何為他們增加價值的方式？

So for example, I'm going off on a tangent here, but if you were, let's say, fired from your last job and they ask you that in the interview, most people are terrified of answering that question.

舉個例子，我在這裡扯遠了，如果你被上一份工作解僱了，面試官問你這個問題，大多數人都會害怕回答這個問題。

You, instead of focusing on all the negative things that happened, okay, that is the last thing you wanna do.

你，不要把注意力放在發生的所有負面事情上，好吧，這是你最不想做的事情。

Actually, that is not a thing you wanna do at all.

事實上，這根本不是你想做的事。

You're gonna focus more on what you learned, what you gained from that experience, and that it just didn't, that you were at a point where you were ready to move on, and then you're going to talk about how you can add value to them, how you can contribute to them, what you're bringing to the table for the future, for this position, and what they can benefit from you.

你要把重點更多地放在你從這段經歷中學到了什麼、收穫了什麼，以及這段經歷並不適合你，你已經到了準備繼續前進的時候，然後你要談談你如何能為他們帶來價值，你如何能為他們做出貢獻，你能為未來、為這個職位帶來什麼，以及他們能從你身上受益什麼。

Okay, so you're always trying to maneuver them in that positive direction.

好吧，所以你一直在努力把他們往積極的方向引導。

So it really is a technique that you wanna get used to doing, but that's hopefully gonna answer your question.

所以，這確實是一種你要習慣去做的技巧，但希望這能回答你的問題。

Now, I really hope that helped, and I want you to remember one thing.

現在，我真的希望這對你們有所幫助，我希望你們記住一件事。

Hiring managers won't make a big deal out of your career gaps if you don't make a big deal out of them first.

如果你不先大做文章，招聘經理就不會對你的職業差距大驚小怪。

Okay, so if you have been looking, once again, for a job for the last little while, the last few months, you've been going on interviews, but you've not been getting job offers, and you are wanting to elevate the way that you present and show up and communicate to hiring managers, then feel free to comment below the word elevate, and I will send you the link to my free masterclass where I'm gonna teach you the four key steps on how to elevate your presence so that hiring managers can pick you as the number one choice.
