五點助你登上職場高峰

2. Sweat the small stuff.
2. 關(guān)注小細節(jié)

Tiny missteps may derail your career. You appear unpolished when you talk like an adolescent, curse at colleagues or proffer a sweaty palm.
有些小小的失誤也許就會令你的事業(yè)發(fā)展偏離你的預(yù)期軌道。講話像個小孩子、說同事的壞話、跟人握手時手心汗津津的，都會顯得你這個人很沒有教養(yǎng)。

Outdated clothes, frayed cuffs, messy hair, scuffed shoes or excess cleavage also signal poor judgment. 'Looking your best at any age is what you should aspire to,' advises Patricia Cook, an executive recruiter in Bronxville, N.Y.
過時的衣服、磨損的袖口、凌亂的頭發(fā)、破舊的鞋子或者領(lǐng)口開得太低都會令別人感覺你缺乏應(yīng)有的判斷力。紐約州布朗克斯維爾的獵頭庫克（Patricia Cook）建議，“應(yīng)當以適合自己年齡的最得體的裝扮呈現(xiàn)在他人面前。”

Even bathroom habits count. High-tech recruiter Dora Vell once worked for a major search firm where the receptionist alerted partners if candidates using the guest toilet near her desk failed to wash their hands. (She could hear the faucet.)
就連上洗手間的習慣也會產(chǎn)生影響。高科技人才獵頭韋爾（Dora Vell）曾供職于一家大型獵頭公司，公司前臺辦公桌旁邊就是客人專用洗手間，如果求職者上過廁所后沒有洗手，前臺接待員就會給合伙人發(fā)出警告。（她能聽到水龍頭是否有開過。）

This lesson also applies to cover letters. Inspirica, a New York high school and college tutoring concern, found mistakes in 93% of 220 letters from tutor applicants over the past year. Many flawed letters came from experienced writing tutors.
求職信同樣也需要關(guān)注細節(jié)。紐約Inspirica高中和大學補習班去年收到了220封應(yīng)征補習教師的求職信，其中93%都是有錯誤的，而且相當一部分是出自經(jīng)驗豐富的寫作教師之手。

'Pay attention to everything you write in cover letters,' warns Lisa Jacobson, Inspirica's CEO. 'Otherwise, you will get weed whacked right out.' Her firm hired just 15 tutors in the fiscal year ended in June.
Inspirica公司首席執(zhí)行長雅各布森（Lisa Jacobson）表示，“求職信的每一處細節(jié)都要非常留意。否則的話，就很可能會錯失良機。”她的公司在6月份結(jié)束的這個財年里僅招聘了15名教師。
