Making the decision to change careers is a huge undertaking.

　　做出转行的决定属实不易。

　　Not only do you have to be willing to acquire new skills and step outside your comfort zone, but you also have to be able to sell your past experience to recruiters and hiring managers.

　　你不仅要愿意学习新技能，走出舒适区，而且还必须能够将过去的工作经验推销给招聘人员和招聘经理。

　　While the majority of this “selling” happens in person during interviews, a well-crafted resume is a key to getting yourself actually called in for one.

　　虽然这种“推销”的大部分都发生在面试过程中，不过一份精心设计的简历是让你收获面试机会的关键。

　　There are definitely some special guidelines to consider, according to resume-writing pros.

　　根据简历写作专业人士，你需要参考一些特殊的写作指导方针。

　　1.Do Your Research1.

　　做好研究准备

　　It's critical to talk to those who are in the careers you want to go into to find out what they would want to see in a resume.

　　与那些已经身处你目标岗位上的人交谈，了解他们希望在简历中看到什么，这一点至关重要。

　　What are the hot terms in the field right now? The most in-demand skills and relevant knowledge?

　　目前这一领域的热门术语是什么?急需哪些技能和相关知识?

　　These are things you need to find out, then incorporate into your resume where you can.

　　这些是你需要找到的内容，然后尽可能将其体现到你的简历中。

　　2.Hightlight Transferable Skills

　　2. 突出可转移技能

　　When you're changing careers, it's assumed that your recent work experience will not perfectly align with the role you’re now targeting. 在你转行时，假设你最近的工作经历与你目前想去的岗位并不完全吻合。

　　That's where transferable skills come in.

　　这就是可转移技能的用武之地。

　　Some transferable skills are universal, regardless of the field: leadership, communication, analytical skills. But to find industry-specific ones, you'll want to conduct informational interviews and review the job descriptions you're targeting.

　　无论什么领域，可转移技能都具有普遍性：领导力、沟通能力、分析能力。不过要找到行业特定的技能，你需要通过信息访谈并查看相应的职位描述。

　　3.Show. Don't Tell

　　3. 用数据展示，而非空谈

　　This is good advice for any resume, but it's especially important for career changers.

　　这对任何简历来说都是一条很好的建议，对于转行人士来说则尤为重要。

　　Why? Well, you'll be able to not only highlight transferable skills, but also prove that you're excellent at them.

　　为什么?你不仅可以突出可转移技能，还可以证明你非常擅长这些技能。

　　Use statistics and numbers to show concrete information about the value you bring.

　　使用统计数据和数字来展示你创造的价值的具体信息。

　　Instead of just saying ‘developed and implemented innovative process improvements,’ say ‘increased operational efficiency and annual revenues by 13% by developing and implementing innovative process improvements.’

　　不要仅仅写“开发和实施创新流程改进”，而要写“通过开发和实施创新流程改进，将运营效率和年营收提高了13%。”
