Corcodilos started out in the headhunting business 20 years ago, he had a keen eye for trackin

4、g talent. From his base in Silicon Valley he would send all-star performers to blue-chip companies like Xerox, IBM and General Electronic. But while he would succeed in his part of the hunt, the job-seekers he located would often fail in theirs. They were striking out before, during or after the int

5、erview. So instead of simply scouting for talent, Corcodilos began advertising job candidates as well. He helped improve their success ratio by teaching them to pursue fewer companies, make the fight contacts and deliver what companies are looking for in an interview. In his myth-busting book, Ask t

6、he Headhunter (Plume, 1997), Corcodilos has reinvented the roles of the job search, from preparation to interview techniques. Here are his six new principles for successful job hunting. Your resume is meaningless. Headhunters know a resume rarely gets you inside a company. All it does is outline you

7、r pastlargely irrelevant since it doesnt demonstrate that you can do the work the hiring manager needs done. “A resume leaves it up to the employers to figure out how you can help their organization,“ Corcodilos says. “That s no way to sell yourself.“ Recalling the marketing adage (古训 ) that a free

8、product sample gives customers a reason to want more, he suggests you do the same: give employers an example of what you can do for them. “Create a new area in your resume. Call it value offered. In two sentences, state the value you would bring to that particular employer.“ For example, “I will red

9、uce your operations costs by streaming your shipping department.“ Be specific, creating a separate resume for each company you approach. Dont get lost in HR. Headhunters try to get around the human-resources department whenever possible. “Most HR departments create an infrastructure that primarily i

10、nvolves processing paper,“ Corcodilos says. “They package, organize, file and sort you. Then, if you havent gotten lost in the shuffle, they might pass you on to a manager who actually knows what the work is all about. While the typical candidate is waiting to be interviewed by HR, the headhunter is

11、 on the phone, using a back channel to get to the hiring manager.“ Do the same in your job search: apply directly to the person who will ultimately make the hire. The real matching takes place before the interview. A headhunter sends a candidate into an interview only if he or she is clearly qualifi

12、ed for the position. In your own job hunt, make the same effort to ensure a good fit. Know the parameters (范围 ) of the job when you walk into the interview. Research the company, finding out about its culture, goals, and competitors. One of the best ways to learn about a company is to talk to people

13、 who work there. Kenton Green of Ann Arbor, Mich., used this technique while completing a doctoral program in electrical engineering and optics in the university of Rochester: “I would find an article published by someone in my field who worked at a company I was interested in. Then Id call that per

14、son and ask to talk, mention my employability and discuss the companys needs. One of the two things happened: Id either get an interview or learn we werent a good match after all.“ As you investigate a prospective employer, you will often find you and the company are not made for each other. “And th

15、ats good,“ Corcodilos says, “because when you do find the right fit, you will walk into an interview with confidence, having decided this is where you want to work.“ Remember, the employer wants to hire you. “A company holds interviews so it can find the best person for the job,“ Corcodilos says. “T

16、he manager will be extremely happy, if that person turns out to be you-because then he or she can stop interviewing and get back to work.“ So give yourself an attitude adjustment. “If you convince yourself the manager wants to hire you, youll have a positive attitude at the interview, and your attit

17、ude might influence the manager to feel good about you.“ Pretend the interview is your first day at work. Most people treat an interview as if it were an interrogation (审问 ). The employer asks questions, and the candidate gives answers. Headhunters go out of their way to avoid that outline. “Your at

18、titude should be that of an employee whos there to talk about a new project, rather than the more obsequious attitude of a candidate whos hoping to get .an offer,“ Corcodilos says. Consider how Corcodilos coached Gerry Zagorski of Edison, N.J., who was pursuing an opening at AT inventions such as st

19、eel plows and mechanized harvesters allowed one farmhand to perform work that previously had required several, thus making farming capital-intensive rather than labor-intensive. The United States economy underwent a massive transition and the nature of work was permanently altered. Whereas cottage i

20、ndustries relied on a few highly skilled craft workers who slowly and carefully converted raw materials into finished products from start to finish, factories relied on specialization. While factory work was less creative and more monotonous (单调无聊的 ), it was also more efficient and allowed mass prod

21、uction of goods at less expense. 63 What aspect of life in the United States does the passage mainly discuss? （ A） The transition from an agricultural to an industrial economy. （ B） The inventions that transformed life in the nineteenth century. （ C） The problems associated with the earliest factori

25、r mean when stating that certain inventions made farming “capital-intensive rather than labor-intensive“ (Line 7, Para. 3)? （ A） Workers had to be trained to operate the new machines. （ B） Mechanized farming required more capital and fewer laborers. （ C） The new inventions were not helpful for all f
