很多人或許會認為，雖然很多大公司要求遞交中英文簡歷，但是HR大都是中國人，所以只要把中文簡歷締造好，英文簡歷只是走個過場，隨便弄一下就可以了。但是外企HR告訴我們其實一名求職者最初發送的中英文簡歷會跟著他求職的整個過程，或許第一輪把關的是中國人。但是，一旦到後面幾輪面試，面試官很可能是以英語為母語的人士，他們跟之前的面試官可能並沒有交流，而是完全根據你的簡歷和你的表現來作判斷。這個時候，如果你的英文簡歷如果出現任何差錯的話，那麼就會使你的印象大打折扣，這樣的後果往往可能變得非常嚴重。
從英語簡歷中，企業還可以看出求職者的英語水平。如果簡歷中有拼寫錯誤，那麼用人單位既會質疑求職者的做事的認真程度也會質疑他的英語水平。除了拼寫錯誤，文法錯誤也是學生經常會犯的毛病，有的錯誤非常明顯，讓求職者糟糕的英文水平暴露無疑。
英語簡歷也能體現求職者對於外來文化的瞭解和接受程度。很多詞語或說法是中國特有的，HR視角：外國人是絕對無法理解的。

對ZMZ英文履歷的點評
博管理諮詢(香港)有限公司總經理張慶
從我們獵頭公司的角度看這篇英文簡歷，感覺還是不錯的。可以用這樣幾個字來概括：條理比較清晰，結構比較完整，用詞也比較規範。如果說還有哪些地方需要提高的話，可能在“賣點”上需要花一點功夫。從比較專業的眼光去品判一篇英文簡歷，我想簡單概括以下幾點，也可為想寫好英文簡歷的經理人作參考：
1、 英文簡歷的格式其實很簡單，可以根據自己的經驗和專業能力搞得新穎一點。但基本上不外乎以下幾個要素，如：
Name:
Address:
Tel:
E-mail:
Objective:
Summary:
Professional Experience:
Education:
Qualifications &Professional Designations:
Hobbies(If need):
在Professional Experience 之前的要素，描述不用太長篇，高度概括即可。面試人，特別是老外，可從中看出你的英文概括能力(長句的使用)。
2、英文簡歷中，專業經驗、經歷(Professional Experience)部分是重頭戲。因為這個部分是面試人最感興趣和關心的，以後即使在面試時，也差不多圍繞這個在說話。寫簡歷的人需要花大“手筆”去描述這個部分。
怎樣才能描述好，要抓住以下幾個關鍵：
工作職責Responsibility
工作業績Achievement: 如完成了多少指標，如何完成的?管理多少人，利潤提高了多少?等等。
在A，B 中，要不厭其煩地用比較數字說明問題，因為獵頭或面試人可能對你的專業不很瞭解，但每一個人都對跳躍的數字感興趣，並且記得住，如：團隊由最初的3人發展到現在的15人，經銷商由99年的3家擴充套件到20xx年的23家等等。
不要光寫成功經驗，也要提及曾經走過的彎路和失敗。最好是寫一個例子，說明原先某個事件看上去已經失敗，但通過你的努力，提高很快，很顯著，你也從中學到很多。告訴面試人或寫在簡歷上你是通過哪些辦法去改變的。老外往往對這一些很感興趣，因為走過彎路再成功的人更吸引人，也對他的公司更具有實際操作意義。
這個部分用詞也有講究，能令人興奮和印象深刻的詞很多，如：rebuild up, developed, exceed, participated, enhanced, coordinated, conducted, assisted processed, implemented, management,prepared, consolidated, contributed more than % for, over, revenue, growth, excellent performance,top,strategy, awarded, significant increase, milestones, etc.
3、 Education
Qualification & Professional designation 這兩部分，可按照標準的一些格式如實附上，如：
Education
California State University, Fullerton
Master of Business Administration degree with a finance specialty. May 20xx
Bachelor of Arts degree with concentration in Accounting, May 1993
Professional Designation
Certified Management Accounting, October 1999. Member of IMA since 1994.
Certified in Financial Management, April 20xx.
CPA candidate, passed the entire CPA Exam in May 1994. Member of CACPAs since 1995.
最後一個部分可以簡單寫一些你的個人愛好(Hobbies)和個人情況(Personal Information).面試時，面試人(包括很多老外)，通過對你這部分看似平常的，非工作性的情況的瞭解，(特別是請高階管理層)，更能評估你這個人目前的狀態和你對社會、家庭的一些看法，以及看出你解決一些實際問題的思路和能力。
