4. How to write the best cv to get the job that you want
When you graduate from university you have to a job hunting. The first step in a successful job search is to decide on the kind of job you want.
Your CV is the first point of contact with a possible employer. You must show that you have good interpersonal skills. You are ready to show your ongoing resilience and ready to grasp new ideas.
Apply for a job only if you think you can do it. You must work only on your own initiative. If you want to get the position of manager or director, you need to have an approach to challenges and be able to meet tight deadlines. You must be able to process new information quickly and adjust to it.
Next, you need to indicate your work experience, you need to write not only your work placement, but how long you worked there, then write about your studies and achievements, perhaps you have a core knowledge, or maybe you do postgraduate degree, the higher your education, the better the position you can apply.
After this, indicate whether you have had internships or exchange programs, this is very useful information that will help the employer asses what experience you have. Additional skills such as language skills should also be included. At the end, you should indicate your hobby and attach references.
5. Your experience of a summer internship
I had the experience of doing an online internship at a Chinese university. It all started with the fact that we filled out student profile. Then, the experts on the Chinese streaming us into groups, depending on our language proficiency. That's how our studies began.
Day after day, we studied at 2 universities, it was quite difficult to study, we had to meet tight deadlines, have a holiday job, consistently show ongoing resilience, be able to have an approach to challenges. All this should be possessed by students who want to have a highly paid prestigious job in the future.
Our curriculum was standard, we learned Chinese in the morning and afternoon, and in the evening, we joined online lessons at Moscow University. I had to rote learning all the new information, then to process the information and be able to apply this knowledge in the life. Some students prefer to learn at their own pace, but sometimes it could lead to lagging behind the curriculum and student had a bad grade. Some of us were probably whiz-kid, and even managed to let their hair down or to live it up.
The purpose of my participation in this internship was to learn more about Chinese culture and improve my language proficiency. I hope in the future this experience will give me an advantage in job hunting, as well as the opportunity to work abroad with a confident language base.
6. The best types of holidays
It seems to me that every person has their own best type of holiday.
I am one of the people who like a calm and measured holiday. I love to unwind by going on a sightseeing tour. I enjoy a resort holiday where I can let my hair down and get away from it all. When I'm on vacation, I try local speciality and pamper myself with delicious food.
My friend loves adventure holidays. She enjoys backpacking, sleeping under canvas. I think that she's prefer to live it up. However, if you want to plan a holiday, it's worth using a self-catering holiday because if you decide to go let, there may be supplements. But if you like to make unexpected decisions, you can always find a last-minute package deal with a budget airline.
