20岁的马云、俞敏洪、王宝强
哪个有完美简历?
主播|雪夜
想象这样一个场景:你的公司发布了一个招聘信息,在筛选简历之后,最后确定了两位候选人。
候选人 A :名牌大学毕业,绩点 4.0 ,完美的履历,出色的推荐信。
候选人 B :非名牌大学毕业,辗转于各种工作之间,甚至做过收银员和服务生。
前提是,两位候选者对于岗位的要求都是满足的。这时候,你会选择哪一位?
以下为演讲正文:
your company launches a search for an open position. The application starts rolling in and the qualified candidates are identified. Now the chossing begins.
你的公司发布了一个公开招聘的职位。申请表开始滚滚而来,合格的人选已经被挑选出来。现在开始挑选。
Person A: IVY League4.0, flawless resume, great recommedations. All the right stuff.
候选人 A :常春藤名校绩点 4.0 完美的简历,出色的推荐信。所有好的要素都具备。
Person B: Stateschool, fair amount of job hopping and odd jobs like cashier and singing waitress.
候选人B:公立学校毕业,辗转于各种工作之间,甚至包括收银员和唱歌的服务生。
But remember—both arequalified. So I ask you: who are you going to pick?
不过请记得——两位都是符合要求的。所以我想问你们:你们会选择谁?
My colleagues and Icreated very official terms to describe two distinct categories of candidates.
我和我的同事发明了一些非常正式的术语来描述两个不同类别的候选人。
We call A “the silver spoon”, the one who clearly had advatages and was destined for success and we call B “the scrapper”, the one who had to fight against tremendous odds to get the samepoints. You just heard human resources director refer to people as silver spoons and scrappers, which is not exactly politically correct and sounds a bit judgemental. But before my human resources certification gets revoked--Let me explain.
我们把 A 称为含着“金钥匙”的人,一个明显具有优势而且注定会成功的人。我们把 B 称作拳击手,他必须努力冲破重重难关去达到相同的目标。你们刚刚听到了一个人力资源总监将应聘者比作金钥匙和拳击手,这听起来在政治上不太正确而且还有些武断,但是在我的人力资源证书被吊销前让我解释一下。
A resume tells a story. And over years, I’ve learned something about people whose experiences read like a patchwork quilt that makes me stop and fully consider before tossing their resume away.
一份简历讲了一个故事。过去的那些年,我了解到那些经历好似拼布床单的人会让我在把他们的简历扔掉之前好好考虑。
