是的。说起来你简历里的花样还真是多呢，难怪这么厚一叠。其实在简历里你只要简单清楚地阐述出你的个人经历就好，通常一页纸就能搞定，最多两页，再多加一封推荐信或者推荐人的联系方式，太多太厚了老板们也没时间和兴趣去看的。

Yeah. And come to think of it, there are a lot of frills on your resume. No wonder it's so thick. Actually, you only need to simply and clearly describe your personal experience in a resume. Usually one page is enough to get the job done, or two pages at the most, plus a letter of recommendation or the contact info for someone who's recommending you. If there's too much stuff, bosses don't have the time or inclination to read it.

That's for sure. But it's a good thing they do so many different things. Otherwise, a lot of us would have nothing to do in our spare time.
