最近有不少同学咨询找兼职，实习类等方面的事情，其实找一份兼职，不仅可以充实自己的课余时间，积累自己的工作经验还可以在一定程度上节省自己的生活开支为家庭减轻负担。对于才来英国读书的学生来说，想找到一份合适的兼职确实是一个很大的挑战，最主要的原因是对英国找工作的途径不了解，下面整理了找工作时必用的一些实用网站，时间仓促，有不全的地方请同学们补充，谢谢.
首选要确实自己是否可以打工，如果你是6个月以上大学学生签证的学生都可以打工，每周最多20小时，在假期中可以全职工作，不需要另外申请许可。对于一些学生(例如读语言，预科)，在英国期间是根本不允许打工的，因为护照上有显示禁止打工的字样。如果你护照上显示允许打工，你就可以先申请一个NI(NATIONAL INSURANCE NUMBER）, 然后就可以开始你的找工作路程了。
1 借助学校找工作
英国的院校几乎都设有职业建议中心，有专人指导学生如何选择自己理想的工作。那里还有丰富的雇主资料以及最新的就业信息。利物浦大学在学生会Guild楼2楼里面有很多工作信息，全职，兼职都有。
2 招聘会（jobfair）
校方每年都会组织招聘会，让雇主与学生直接见面。参加这类活动可以使你面对面与雇主交流，了解情况或推销自己。如果有些公司对你有好感，就会要走你的简历或记下你的联系方式，到时会主动与你联系的。利物浦好像每年有2次大的招聘会在ST George's hall 里面（利物浦火车站对面）
3 报纸杂志
英国的报纸杂志每天都会刊登很多招聘启事，其中专业性媒体针对性很强，综合性媒体范围则较广。通常比较困难。
4 工作中介 Employment Agency
留学生注册很简单，填一张表格，写下以往工作经验、留下联系电话号码就可以了。和职业介绍所有协议的企业，会把近期所需要的人员情况告诉职介，职介再根据这个数据库与注册登记的求职者取得联系。
利物浦就有一家这样的公司，他们圣诞节期间好像要招人，这2个星期他们一直在面试招人培训，有兴趣的同学可以上他们网站看看，工作基本上都是服务类的，对语言有一定要求。网站：http://www.archospitality.co.uk/
5 朋友介绍
这个就不需要解释了吧，如果你朋友在某个公司上班，如果公司正好有职位空缺，你朋友可以帮你搭个线，介绍一下，工作就很容易拿到手。
6 电脑IT网络
网络作为21世纪的求职新媒介，其作用日益突显。各大网站都有相应介绍与招聘,因自身需要所获得。对于一些公司也可以直接在公司网站上申请工作。

下面转载的是学校的资料，找工作时候学习写CV 和 covering letters 时候用的，没有翻译成中文，对于有点英文基础的相信大家都可以看的懂的。
Example CVs
There are three common types of CV which can be adopted or amended as you see fit, these are shown below. Choose the style that best highlights your relevant skills and experience (based on the specific job/company requirements).
If you are emailing your CV or uploading it to an online database:
use a common word processing package;
target your CV to the career you want to enter;
use key words and phrases from the job description to outline your relevant skills and experience;
use a normal typeface such as Verdana or Arial, and do not underline or use italics.
Chronological CV
This is the traditional CV format which directly links your education, work experience, achievements and interests to your relevant skills. Experiences are listed in reverse chronological order (i.e. your most recent studies and jobs are shown first).
This format is particularly effective if you have relevant experience because it highlights:
what you have done;
who you have worked for;
how you have progressed.

Skills-based CV
In this type of CV you briefly list your education, work experience, achievements and interests in one section and outline your relevant skills in a separate ‘skills profile’.
CVs with well-targeted skills profiles are particularly effective when:
your experiences are not obviously relevant;
you have changed jobs frequently;
you have a wide range of experiences;
you are looking to change career direction.
This is because your skills profile shows that you have addressed the needs of the employer and you have gained all the transferrable skills required.

Academic CV
If you are looking for a research role you should demonstrate your relevant academic knowledge and achievements. Your headings could be:
dissertation;
research abstracts;
research interests;
areas of expertise;
teaching experience;
administrative experience;
publications;
presentations;
conferences attended;
professional memberships;
fellowships and awards.

Remember - your research interests should be comprehensible to people outside your field but scholarly enough to interest fellow researchers.
Do not neglect your transferable skills and always use a professional layout. Academic employers want academic staff who are motivated team players, and can manage projects, bring in funding and communicate concisely and professionally.
Writing a CV
Your CV is a great chance to prove that you have the specific skills and experience required by an employer. To promote yourself effectively, identify the skills required in the vacancy and provide evidence of you having them.
For example, you could prove your teamwork skills by describing a specific activity at university and outlining how you:
Listened to colleagues, encouraged them and responsibly carried out my personal role, resulting in a mark of 71% and a business recommendation.
You should use positive power words and any headings you want to promote your specific skills and experiences - here are some of the headings you should consider:
Personal details
This is usually the first heading on a CV and you should keep it short.
Print your name at the top in a large font.
If necessary, include both your term-time and home addresses (with dates when you will be at each).
Create a professional voicemail reply message and email address incorporating your name.
As a rule, do not include information relating to your age, sex, nationality, marital status or health.
Education
Provide details of your education going back to your GCSEs (or equivalent). For each school, further education and higher education institution you have attended (or are attending), list the following:
the institution’s name;
the town (and country, if it is overseas);
when you were there (from start to finish);
your qualifications and grades (especially if they are good), and their UK equivalents if they were taken overseas).
Summaries GCSEs, but promote your recent education and training more fully. Relate your degree(s) to the job you are going for. For example, you could list relevant modules, outline related projects and/or promote the skills you have gained.
Experience/work experience
All work experience counts, whether paid, voluntary or shadowing (working alongside someone for a short time to see what their job is like). Outline your responsibilities and achievements that were/are relevant to the job you are seeking. Provide more information for recent and relevant roles. Some experience can be grouped together. For example:
Summer 2009: A variety of customer service roles including bar work, waitressing and telesales. Developed an awareness of customer relationship management and improved my teamwork skills whilst working with challenging customers in high pressure environments.
Positions of responsibility/achievements/interests
Choose one of these headings to outline extracurricular accomplishments which demonstrate your personal initiative and career motivation. Briefly describe what you have done, how you have succeeded and the relevant skills you have gained. For example:
As president of the university karate club I organise regular meetings to discuss possible events and successfully collaborate with a wide range of people including undergraduates, postgraduates, administrators, senior academics and sponsors.
Referees
You can either provide the contact details of two referees or tell the employer that your references are ‘available upon request’. One of your referees should be work-related, e.g. a manager at work, and one should be an academic at university - most people use their personal tutor.
Optional headings
You can also create any other headings which highlight your particular attributes for the specific job. Some options are shown below.
Personal profile/career objective
This is a short (three/four line) summary of your relevant attributes and specific career aims. Well targeted profiles can attract attention but general statements often create a bad impression.
Follow these rules:
use the third person (do not use ‘I’ or ‘my’);
focus on just one or two of the key skills and experiences required.
For example:
Pro-active marketing graduate with over three years' experience organising and publicising successful events. Created a popular marketing campaign during internship with Virgin Airlines. Looking for a challenging and creative marketing position in the airline industry.
Relevant experience and Additional experience
If you have a wide range of employment experience, you may want to highlight your most relevant work history under a ‘Relevant experience’ heading and list your other jobs in an ‘Additional experience’ section.
Other possible headings
You may want to include any number of additional headings such as: ‘Career summary’, ‘Technical skills’, ‘Publications’, ‘Additional skills’ and ‘Accountancy experience’ (if relevant to the job role).
Layout
It should be easy to scan your CV and see your key skills and experiences. To do this effectively:
use an appropriate type of CV (chronological, skills-based or academic);
highlight relevant skills and experiences;
place key information at the top of the CV where it can be easily seen;
use bullet points to break up text;
use positive headings such as ‘Skills gained’ and ‘Relevant experience’;
list your experiences in reverse chronological order (most recent first);
make dates easy to see and leave no unexplained gaps in time.
Presentation
To create a good impression:
use good quality paper (if sending a hard copy);
in most instances, use two full pages (investment banks may expect a one-page CV, and academic institutions may want a longer academic CV for academic roles);
use a simple consistent format;
promote yourself with positive words and phrases;
spell everything appropriately and use correct grammar;
avoid graphics and tables as they can look cluttered;
use a larger font size for headings and use bold for emphasis (but do not overdo it);
keep it simple and attractive even if a job calls for artistic creativity (you can always provide a portfolio of your work);
avoid too much white space.
Ask a careers adviser for further help and feedback.
Covering letters
Whenever possible, send a covering letter with your CV which demonstrates your motivation, commitment and relevant skills.
Always tailor your covering letter to the specific role.
Show you have researched the role, the organisation and the industry.
Outline why you are attracted to the specific opportunity.
Highlight your unique selling points.
When applying by email, add the letter as an attachment.
Style
Use one page of A4 paper and four or five paragraphs.
Address your letter to a named person, even if you have to contact the organisation to ask who deals with recruitment.
Include your contact details and the employer’s (including their title).
Make sure your grammar and spelling are perfect.
Use a professional tone.
Link your writing style to the industry, e.g. covering letters for a job as a waitress will be less formal than those for an internship at a bank.
Content
Use the following format as a guide for your letter. You may also want to include an extra paragraph to explain any personal circumstances or anomalies such as low grades or a career change.
Paragraph 1: a positive, formal introduction outlining how you heard about the opportunity, listing the documents you have enclosed (such as your CV).
Paragraph 2: outline why you are interested in the role and the organisation, demonstrating indepth research and mature reflection on how the opportunity fits into your career plans.
Paragraph 3: highlight your key skills and experiences.
Paragraph 4: highlight your key skills and experiences.
Paragraph 5: end positively outlining when you will be available for interview.
Disclosure of disability
Legally, you do not have to declare your disability before you start a new job, but failure to do so on an application or medical form, when you are specifically asked, could give rise to dismissal later on.
If you decide to disclose, stress your positive attributes and outline the benefits of your disability, for example:
highlight your relevant skills;
outline the extra skills you have gained as a result of your disability.
In your covering letter you could also give examples of how you have successfully dealt with challenges in the past brought on by your disability. |
