職場(chǎng)老兵怎樣找到新工作？
|
????沃德爾表示，要想進(jìn)入自己確實(shí)希望工作的公司，就別太在意職務(wù)或薪酬下調(diào)：“過于關(guān)注職務(wù)是錯(cuò)誤的。副總裁、董事或其他職務(wù)，誰在乎呢？如果一家公司給出的年薪比你現(xiàn)在的崗位少了幾千塊，也不要把這一點(diǎn)看的太過重要。你永遠(yuǎn)不知道在十八個(gè)月過后，當(dāng)你抓住機(jī)會(huì)證明了自己的能力之后，你的職務(wù)和薪酬會(huì)達(dá)到怎樣的水平。” ????對(duì)于是否應(yīng)該在簡歷上對(duì)某些日期撒謊，或者直接避而不談，沃德爾認(rèn)為不能。他說：“現(xiàn)在的許多雇主都認(rèn)為年齡是優(yōu)勢(shì)，所以沒有理由隱瞞。坦率承認(rèn)自己的年齡，然后把重點(diǎn)放在你能為這份工作帶來哪些競爭對(duì)手無法提供的東西，不論他們是幾零后。” ????沃德爾的建議都來自他的親身經(jīng)歷。他是一位載譽(yù)而歸的越戰(zhàn)老兵，在職業(yè)早期曾在美國運(yùn)通（American Express）、花旗集團(tuán)（Citi）等公司擔(dān)任管理職位。2011年，66歲的沃德爾成為Witt/Kieffer公司的最高領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人。他說：“其他候選人都比我年輕，但我卻被選中了。”你同樣可以做到。 ????反饋：如果你是55歲或55歲以上，你認(rèn)為自己在求職過程中遇到過年齡歧視嗎？如果你最近更換了工作，是什么讓你成功跳槽？歡迎評(píng)論。（財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)） ????譯者：劉進(jìn)龍/汪皓 |
????Don't worry if you have to take a step down in title or pay to get a foot in the door at a company where you really want to work, Wardell says: "It's a mistake to get hung up on titles. Vice president, director, or some other title, who cares? And if the starting pay a company offers is a few thousand dollars a year less than you've been earning in your current position, don't make that a sticking point, either. You never know where you'll be, in both rank and compensation, 18 months down the road when you've had a chance to show what you can do." ????As for whether you should fudge the dates on your resume, or leave them off altogether, Wardell says not. "So many employers consider age to be an advantage now, there's no reason to hide it," he notes. "Be very upfront about it, and then focus the discussion on what you bring to the job that competing candidates -- whatever their date of birth -- may not be able to offer." ????Wardell speaks from firsthand experience, by the way. A decorated Vietnam veteran who held management jobs at American Express (AXP), Citi (C), and elsewhere earlier in his career, he was 66 when he got the top job at Witt/Kieffer in 2011. "I was picked over other, much younger candidates," Wardell says. You can be, too. ????Talkback: If you're 55 or older, do you believe you've encountered age bias in a job search?
