What’s interesting is that the buzzwords vary, depending on the country. The word “creative” was overused in Australia, Canada, Germany, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, and the United States. “Effective” was used by too many job hunters in India. And Italians, it seems, are fantastic at “problem solving.

有意思的是，不同的国家对于上述词汇的滥用程度还有不同。在澳大利亚、加拿大、德国、荷兰、英国和美国，有创造力这个词被滥用得最多。而在印度，求职者最爱用“有效率”这个词。在意大利，简历中最常见的就是“有解决问题的能力”。

What shall I do?

那我该怎么做呢？

Banish buzzwords from your profile. Use language that illustrates your unique professional accomplishments and experiences. Give concrete examples of results you’ve achieved whenever possible and reference attributes that are specific to you.

在你的简历里，放弃使用这些已经被滥用了的流行词，转而用语言来描述那些你的特别经历和获得的成绩。只要有可能，就尽量举一些具体的例子来说明，多用一些专属于你的形容词来描述自己。
