M: Well, the main purpose of a resume is to convince an employer to give you a chance for an interview. Generally, there are two kinds of resume. One is familiar to us, the one we call "tombstone". This kind of resume lists your educational background and working experience in time order. The other one "Functional" is more descriptive and fun to read. It may bring more opportunities for an interview.
F: I see. But from the prospective employers you have met, which is used more often?
M: It's convenient to have "tombstone" for certain occasions. But many prospective employers throw away most of these unrequested "tombstone" lists, preferring to interview the applicants with the lively resume rather than the dead one.
F: Can you give us some idea on how to write a functional resume that will get read?
M: As a matter of fact, it's not so difficult to write a resume that makes you come alive and look interesting to employers. First of all, in order to write a resume others will read with enthusiasm, you have to feel important about yourself. Then, try to sell what you can do rather than who you are. Translate your personality traits, character, accomplishments and achievements into skill areas. Believe it or not, there are at least five thousand skill areas in the world of work.
F: Another point is that most people tend to be modest when writing a resume. What do you think of that?
M: That's a good question. Many people think they don't have any ability. What we should remember is that everyone has ability and maybe one of yours is just what an employer is looking for if only you show it.
F: In the job market today, there are some women who want to return to salaried employment when they no longer want to be a housewife. Do you have any suggestions for them?
M: Well, if you are returning to the work force after fifteen years as a parent, simply write a short paragraph, like a summary of background in place of list of experience in time order. Don't apologize for working as a mother; it's the hardest job of all.
F: It seems that many people have no idea about how to find personal accomplishment. How do you think of this?
M: There is nothing special in it. You can simply take four or five hours off and write down every accomplishment in your life, on or off the job; that made you effective and unique. Study the list and try to spot patterns. In the process of doing so, you will identify your remarkable skills. Once you discover patterns, give names to your cluster of accomplishments, for instance, leadership skills, budget management skills, child development skills, etc.
F: Writing a resume is really a complicated job.
M: It really is. It may take four drafts or more and several weeks before you are ready to show it to a stranger for reaction. When you are satisfied, print it instead of photocopying it because it shows an employer that you regard job hunting as serious work, worth doing right.
F: Thank you, Mr Schuman. Those are really helpful advice.
?You will hear an interview with Mr Schuman, a job recruitment advisor.
?For each question 23-30, mark one letter (A, B or C) for the correct answer.
?You will hear the interview twice.
The purpose of a resume is
A.to get a chance for an interview.
B.to get a job.
C.to convince the employer.

F Well, my first job was with SHC Computer Systems. I first started working there when I was a law student. I needed work for the vacation before starting back at university in the autumn. It was so exciting that I knew I wanted a permanent post there - and not in their legal department. That's why I went there after I graduated.
M But you left SHC after a few years. Why was that?
F Well, SHC was an internationally known firm with a great reputation. But all our rivals were trying to do the same kind of thing. I felt that, if we were going to stay in that area, we should aim to create software based on companies' real needs. You know, like coming up with programs for the insurance industry.
M So you left SHC when they disagreed with you.
F Yes, but I offered my ex-boss a deal for the first three years, so that there wouldn't be any concern about winning contracts away from them. Basically, if any SHC product was available that suited my customers' needs, that's what I'd recommend. But where no standard product was sufficient, then we'd develop a product that was more appropriate.
M But it must be hard to satisfy the needs of companies as varied as, say, insurance firms and chemical companies with just a few specific products.
F That's right. That's why we focused at first on just the motor industry, or rather the companies making the parts which go into each vehicle. Now we produce packages for a slightly larger number of industries - including insurance. But we didn't broaden our range for a few years.
M And now you're a major company, And you've also taken over quite a few other large software firms. How do you think you've managed to do this so successfully?
F Well, you have to be patient. But of course if you wait too long, somebody else will get there first. What takes time is finding out such an enormous amount of information about a company you're interested in acquiring. Whether it's an unknown firm or a firm with an established reputation, you have to find out the facts for yourself.
M I was also interested to read about your pricing policy that you set prices as a percentage of your clients' turnover rather than as a fixed amount.
F Well, whatever price you offer, someone else will always offer a lower one. So I think what you need to do to succeed is to ensure that your clients want to stay with you long-term, which is what our system aims to do.
M It must be hard, though, combining being Chief Executive with bringing up two children, especially with your husband also working ful-time.
F I think if youre very organised, you can combine things. For example, if you want a full social life, or like me, if you want to spend as much time as possible with your family, you just have to organise your work so that it doesn't take over.
M And one final question. What do you enjoy most about your job?
F Well, I'm lucky that I've got such a brilliant team around me. What's really good is when they realise they can do things they couldn't do before. You need to work with them for some time before you really appreciate that. It's great when that happens.
M Oh, yes it is. I'm afraid we'll have to end there. Thank you, Victoria.
