Dear Annie: A couple of years ago, I applied for a job at a company where I've always wanted to work. At the time, they had a hiring freeze in effect, so I got nowhere. But now I hear through the grapevine that they've started adding staff in the area where I would be working (brand management). So I'm thinking about trying again. My question is, since they told me they would keep my information on file, should I assume they already have my resume, etc., or start over from scratch? I'm sure lots of people apply for jobs there all the time, so I'd appreciate any suggestions on how to move to the front of the line. — Mulligan 亲爱的安妮：几年前，我曾经申请过一个职位，那是一家我一直梦想进入的公司。后来由于该公司冻结招聘计划，事情不了了之。现在，我从小道消息得知，当初我应聘的这个部门（品牌管理）已经重启招聘。我想再试一试。我的问题是，当初他们说过会把我的信息存档，我是该假定他们早已有了我的简历等信息，还是一切从头再来？我知道现在很多人都在找工作，如何在竞争中占据优势，希望能听听您的建议，不胜感激。——附加一击 Dear Mulligan: First, assume nothing. "If you applied two or three years ago, there is no guarantee that the same hiring managers or human resources people you contacted before are still there," notes Roy Cohen, a New York City career coach and author of The Wall Street Professional's Survival Guide. "Many companies have experienced so much turnover in the past few years that there is not much institutional memory anymore. So even if you got to the interview stage the last time around, you may now be having a completely new conversation." |
