Microblog job seeking refers to a new form of job searching. Netizens post their resume on a microblog site and tweet the posts to their desired employers. It's fast, easy and doesn't cost anything, but it also has a very slim chance of success.

微求职是一种新的求职方式，网民把简历发到微博上，给心仪的雇主留言。这种方式快捷、简单而且没有成本，但是成功几率很小。

Getting your dream job after university isn’t just about a first class degree and a killer¹ CV, these days it is also about networking and contacts. Here are some strategies for you to get a better shot.

大学毕业后想获得理想的工作，不仅需要一个一流大学学位和一份超级简历，在如今的时代网络和沟通也很重要。以下是提高求职成功几率的一些策略。

While setting up your microblog account, spend some time on deciding a strategic name, picture and biography. If you’re after a professional appearance, you won’t be taken seriously if your name is ‘fluffybunii123’ and your profile picture is of you and your friends on a drunken night out. Go for a simple picture and your full name. Your biography is only 160 characters, so make it snappy, witty² and add your personal aspirations³. Employers in your particular industry will spot this straight away.

创建微博个人账号时，请花些时间认真考虑后再决定用户名、头像和个人简介。如果你想树立一个良好的职业形象，但你的微博名是“毛绒兔123”，头像是你和朋友晚上在外喝得烂醉的照片，那么别人将不会认真对待你。选择一张简单的照片，用你的全名作为用户名。你的个人简介最多只能写160个字，所以应写得简短、风趣并加上个人抱负。和你同一行业的雇主会立刻识别出你的微博。

Most of the big names and companies you follow won’t follow you back straight away. The best way for you to get noticed by them is to re-tweet or reply to some of their posts, but try to avoid looking like a stalker, and only choose tweets that are relevant to you or your career.

大多数你关注的大人物和大公司都不会很快关注你。想被他们注意到，最好的方法就是转发或回复他们的微博，但尽量别让自己显得像跟踪者一样，只选择那些和你或你的事业相关的微博来回复。
