7. Notarizing
7、公证人资格
Becoming a certified notary public is a lot easier than most people think. Depending on state regulations, there is an exam followed by and an oath. Requirements include a clean record and being a legal resident of the state in which you are seeking certification.
成为一个认证的公证人比大部分人想的要容易许多。依据州法规,只需要在申请后进行一次考试和一次宣誓。要求包括无犯罪记录并且在你申请认证的州是守法公民。
8. Scuba Diving
8、深潜
It isn't likely that scuba diving will be tied directly to your prospective field, but it's important to develop your interests as well as take steps to achieve your professional goals.
潜水并不是直接与你潜在的职业相关,但发展兴趣和逐步实现职业目标一样重要。
It takes less than six months to learn how to scuba dive, and it shows that you're not only naturally curious but you also understand the importance of following regulations and safety codes. You can also learn to cook or earn a pilot's license in six months, all of which have benefits and lessons you can bring to an office or other professional setting.
学会潜水花不用超过6个月,并且它显示你不仅天生地好奇,而且也明白遵守法规和安全准则的重要性。在6个月时间内,你也能学会做饭或者获得一个引水员证书,这些都是你可带到办公室或者其他专业场所的经验和教训。
9. Public Speaking
9、公开演讲
There's nothing quite as useful as being able to speak with confidence and poise to a room full of people, getting your point across in the most effective and persuasive way possible.
没有什么能像沉稳自信地面对一屋子人演讲、用最高效和有说服力的方式使人抓住重点那么有用处。
Public speaking is a crucial skill to develop, especially in a field where you need to present information or communicate with others frequently. There are typically classes at local colleges or other learning institutions, but you can also attend Toastmasters meetings to become more eloquent while working on leadership skills.
公开演讲是一项需要学习的关键技能,特别是在需要陈述信息或者经常与其他人交流的行业。在本地大学或者其他学习机构有许多典型课程,但在学习领导技巧上,你也可以参加Toastmasters的会议以变得更有口才。
10. Foreign Language Basics
10、外语基础
Maybe you still remember a little Spanish or French from high school or college. Perhaps you picked up German or Italian from big dinners with your relatives all these years. Or maybe you just have a passion for Japanese or Korean media and have learned some basic phrases. If you have an interest in a foreign language, you can increase your linguistic prowess in a matter of months.
可能你还记得高中或大学学的一点西班牙语或者法语。可能这些年在与亲戚们大聚餐时你学会了一些德语或者意大利语。抑或者你对日本语或者韩语媒体感兴趣并学会了一些基本词组。如果对外语有兴趣,你可以在数月内增加语言造诣。
Improving your language skills to get up to a working proficiency can really help pump up your resume. If you have no background in other languages, consider taking sign language classes. Even though some countries have region-specific sign languages (American and British sign languages are different, despite both intended for English), it opens up the possibility to communicate with even more people.
提高语言运用能力到精通的程度可使你的简历脱颖而出。如果没有其他语言背景,你可考虑参加手语班。即使有些国家有区域特定手语(美国和英国虽然都是英语,但手语不同),它使你与更多人交流成为可能。
Not all languages are used for communicating person to person — there are various programming languages that you can learn. If your field is mainly online, it's good to start with HTML. There are code-specific classes you can take, and there are great online lessons on sites such as Codecademy. If this is your first coding experience, note that it may take a little longer than six months to understand it fully.
不是所有的语言都用作人与人之间的交流,你也可以学习许多其他程序语言。如果你的行业主要是在网上在线,最好从HTML语言开始。有许多特定代码班你可以参加,也有许多譬如Codecademy比较棒的在线课程。如果这是你的第一次编码经历,注意,你可能需要花6个月以上才能全面地理解。
