Job Hunting is a stressful problem for everyone. Whether someone getting a job right out of school or someone seeking a better position than the one they just left, it is not something that comes easy to most people. However, with preparation and planning, the difficulties can be focused on and the situation can become less stressful. For example, dressing correctly is an important step for any applicant. Also, if you dress correctly, you will feel more confident in your ability to get the job. Men should wear a dress shirt and tie or even a suit if they possess one. Women should wear a suit or other clothing suitable for the occasion. It is better to dress too conservatively than not conservatively enough. Always use honesty as some interviewers will be able to detect problems in your resume. Good manners and correct speech are essential in impressing the interviewer. Remember to smile and shake hands when you meet the interviewer. Make eye contact and answer questions directly and concisely. All of this will also be reflected in your attitude, so that it tells the interviewer that you are a responsible and hardworking person. This mind-set will allow you to know your ownworth with out being too proud of your accomplishments. This is also important when talking about your past working experience and your accomplishments. You do not want to be self-criticizing, but you do not want to be too arrogant of these as well. A proper balance must be struck between the two.

找工作对每个人来说都是极具压力的事情。不论是刚迈出校门在谋求第一份工作,还是寻求一份比之前的工作更为理想的工作,对于大多数人来说这都不是一件容易的事情。然而,如果进行适当的准备和计划,困难便可以得到重视,压力也会相对减少。例如,合理的着装对每一个工作申请者来说都是重要的一步。同时,如果你合理着装,就会使自己更加有信心能够得到理想的工作。男士在求职时应当穿衬衫打领带,如果有条件的话还可以穿上西装。女士则应该穿正装或者和场合相符的衣服。穿着过于保守比起穿着不够保守要好一些。一定要诚实,因为有些面试官常常可以在你的简历中发现问题。好的言谈举止是给面试官留下好印象的关键。当见到面试官时记得跟他握手并微笑,利用眼神交流,同时回答问题要做到简明扼要。所有这一切都会在你的态度中表现出来,因此这会让面试官知道你是一个既负责任又肯勤奋工作的人。这些都会让你清楚地认识到自己的价值,又不会使你对于自己的才华过度骄傲。这点在谈及你以前的工作经历和成就时尤为重要。你不必自我批评,但是也不可因为那些成绩而骄傲自大。这两者间必须要有适当的平衡。
