口袋妖怪黑2全技能属性:有没有让职业调查变得简单（中/英）

说起调查，因特网上有着丰富得不可思议的信息资源供你使用，就好像你在家里或者办公室里拥有一个巨型的个人图书馆。但实际上，因特网的缺点之一就是拥有太多的信息。当你为自己寻找工作做调查的时候，把精力集中在某一个目标上非常重要。关注当前的某个目标，你就不会偏离正确的方向，在过多的信息当中迷失自己，从而不知所措。

寻找一辆新车——这个过程很清晰

比如说你要买一辆新的小轿车。你想让你的钱花得最值，于是在做决定之前你要研究一下市场上的情况。

你可能会采取这些步骤：

1．跟技工谈谈，了解哪些轿车的性能是最可靠的。

2．确定选择哪种轿车——型号、出厂年份和价格范围。

3．查看车价书上的定价，研究可比较的价格。

4．阅读《消费者报告》的汽车版。

5．咨询经销商，试车。

6．检查车况。

7．在自己调查的基础上提出一个合理的价格。

寻找一个新的工作——提高的空间

现在你在找一份新的工作。你明白你应该做一些研究和调查工作，但是你不清楚这个过程是怎样的。你在因特网上和分类的工作列表中查询。你申请那些你能胜任的工作，然后等待回音。

很多人买新车时所做的调查工作比他们在寻找新工作时所做的研究工作还要细致和深入。如果你在找工作时也能够像买新车时那样做详细深入的调查和研究，那么你搜集到的信息也许会让你大吃一惊。

你应该采取下面这些步骤：

•确定工作类型和地理位置

缺乏针对性是求职者犯的最大的错误之一——求职没有具体的目标。首先深入彻底的评估一下自己，然后决定你到底想要做什么工作。

•调查你感兴趣的行业

哪些行业有着很好的增长趋势？哪些正在下滑？在网上搜集一些大概的信息，查查《职业展望手册》，咨询一些特定的行业协会来对未来的趋势作一下预测。

•确定目标并且调查目标公司

查询公司网页，查看任务描述、产品和服务相关信息、领导者的背景及联系方式。通过美国证券交易委员会来查询公司的财政状况。

•建立人脉关系

任何与知情人士交谈的机会对你都是非常有益的。人脉关系依然是找工作的有利渠道。

•查看工作列表

在Monster网站上你可以按照行业、职业和位置的分类查看成千上万的职位信息。

在工作调查上花时间是值得的。我们掌握的信息越多，准备得就越充分——不仅仅是为了能够机智地应对面试中的问题，也是为了能够问出一些有针对性的问题。对于行业、公司和未来的展望做一个深入全面的调查，会让你感觉准备得很充分，从而大大增加你的信心，也会让你给老板留下更深刻、更积极和更持久的印象。

Career Research Made Easy

When it comes to research, an unimaginable wealth of information is available to you on the Internet. It's like having a huge private library in your own home or office. In fact, one downside of the Internet is having too much information. When researching for your job search, it's important to concentrate on a target. By staying focused on the task at hand, you will not stray down a tangential path, only to become lost and confused by information overload.

Finding a New Car -- The Process Is Clear

Say you're in the process of buying a car. You're looking for the best buy for your money and will research the market before making a decision.

Here are the steps you might take:

1.Talk to a mechanic to find out which cars are most reliable.

2.Decide on type of car -- model, year and price range.

3.Check Kelly Blue Book pricing and researched comparable prices.

4.Read Consumer Reports' car edition.

5.Visit dealers and conduct test drives.

6.Have a mechanic check out the car's condition.

7.Make a reasonable offer based on the research.

Finding a New Job -- Room for Improvement

Let's say you're also looking for a new job. You know you should do some research, but you're not clear about the process. You check the Internet and classifieds for job listings. You apply for jobs you are qualified for and wait to hear back.

Many people do a more thorough job of researching major purchases like a new car than they do researching a new job. If you used the same thorough process you used to purchase a car, you might be surprised at the information you would uncover.

Here are some steps you should take:

•Decide on the Type of Job and Geographic Location

Lack of focus is one of the biggest mistakes job seekers make -- the search is not specific and targeted. Begin with a thorough self-assessment to determine what you really want.

•Research Your Industry of Interest

Which industries are trending toward growth? Which are declining? Do some general information gathering online and check the Occupational Outlook Handbook and specific industry associations for future predictions.

•Target and Research Companies

Search company Web sites for mission statements, product and service information, principals' backgrounds and contact information. Check public company financials through the US Securities and Exchange Commission.

•Network

Any opportunity to talk to people who are in the know will benefit you. Networking is still the favored source for job research.

•Check Job Listings.

You can search hundreds of thousands of US jobs by industry, occupation and location right here on Monster.

Investing time in research will pay off. The more information you have, the better prepared you will be -- not only to answer interview questions intelligently but also to ask poignant questions. Conducting a thorough search of the industry, the company and the outlook will greatly improve your feelings of preparedness and confidence, resulting in a stronger, more positive and lasting impression of you.
