A plucky candidate recently listed the Almighty as a referee on his CV, according to a survey by careerbuilder.co.uk, Metro.co.uk reports.

The divine reference joins a long list of silly things employers have read on job applications recently. One candidate boldly claimed that his experience included being the Master of Time and the Universe while another listed the Vikings as his direct descendants. Another person simply listed his name and address and wrote underneath it: "I want a job." Obviously such stunts are not really the way to sell oneself to a potential employer.

What recruiters do want, according to the survey, are applications that highlight candidates' problem-solving abilities, communication skills and computer software know-how. (点击《英国都市报》网站查看原文)

求职者将上帝列为推荐人

       据《英国都市报》网站消息,在线求职网站careerbuilder.co.uk做了一项调查,列出了一系列雇主们在阅读求职简历时发现的蠢事。

       比如,一位大胆的求职者在简历中将上帝列为他的推荐人;有的在介绍其工作经验时冒冒失失地宣称自己是时间和宇宙的主人;有的甚至将北欧海盗列为自己的直系后裔;还有的则只简单列出自己的姓名和地址,并在下面写道:“我想要份工作。”很显然,这些愚蠢行为都不是向潜在雇主推销自己的好方式。

       调查发现,雇主们真正想要的是那些能突显其解决问题能力﹑沟通能力和电脑软件技能的求职申请。
