简化英文简历

Fill out everything.

　　把表格填满。

　　Don’t leave blanks in the application, even if they’re not required. Some ATS only accept candidates who complete the entire application, so you’re improving your chances at getting noticed if you do.

　　即使没有填写要求，也不要在申请表上留下空白处。一些ATS只接受完整填写申请表的申请人，所以这样可以增加你受关注的机会。

　　Uncomplicate your resume.

　　简化简历。

　　Don’t include pictures, graphics, or other fancy formatting that’s unnecessary. While it might make your resume look pretty, the ATS might not like it—and you’ll lower your chances at landing an interview in the process.

　　简历中不要包含图片、图表或其它没有必要的花俏格式。这些东西可能使你的简历看起来很漂亮，但ATS可能不喜欢这一套，这样会减少你获得面试的机会。

　　Include abbreviations.

　　解释缩写词。

　　However, it’s also important you include the non-abbreviated terms. Although you might know what the abbreviation stands for, the person reading your resume might not know—just like I did when opening this article explaining about applicant tracking systems (ATS).

　　解释缩写的术语同样很重要。虽然你可能知道这个缩写词代表什么，但读简历的人不一定知道，就像我在文章的开头解释缩写词ATS代表求职者追踪系统一样，对缩写术语进行解释。
