Background:
個人的興趣愛好其實主要體現在業餘活動上,對於剛入社會的學生來說,業餘活動主要就是課外活動。
課外活動包括社會活動和業餘愛好。
豐富多彩的課外活動表示你希望豐富自己的社會經驗,發揮多方面的才能。通過你所參加的課外活動,可以看出你的交際能力、價格修養、成熟程度和健康狀況。比如說你當學生會主席的經歷能夠表明你人緣好、善處人際關係、有領導才能等。
因此,如果你曾參加什麼課外活動,就如實寫出來。這些活動可以幫助僱主瞭解你,成爲有利的條件。課外活動對於剛走出校門的朋友來說,是找工作時的一個相當重要的條件。
擴展:展示個人能力
Background:
個人能力集中表現在社會榮譽、工作業績、科研成果、著作等,這裏最主要的是著作和工作成果。
著作包括所有出版過的書,發表過的論文。這一項對科研、學術工作者尤爲重要。如果內容與所申請的職位密切相關,作者不僅應列入其中,而且可扼要介紹作品內容、社會影響和效果。面試時,應帶上作品的原件或複印件。
瞭解到到底什麼是個人能力以後,我們再來看一段對話:
