Resume(简历)tips:4 ways to stand out on paper
According to a recent study,recruiters(招聘人员)only spend six seconds looking at your resume. So how do you make it into the callback pile in those mere seconds?1.Here is a bunch of ways to do just that.

When recruiters look through resumes, they're looking for key words that match the job description, including basic key words will get their attention, but you can take it a step further.2.Then include those key words in your resume as well.

My friend is a chef. Her resume looks a lot like any chef's resume with one surprising difference.Under personal accomplishments she wrote, “Won the 2007 St. Bernard Parish Pie Eating Contest.” It isn't something you'd expect. She's been asked about the contest on several interviews, which is the perfect time to tell the recruiter that she also baked all of the pies for the contest.
3. Turn your resume into an infographic.
4.Just ask college journalist Chris Spurlock. Last year he turned his resume into an infographic. Not long after, Spurlock's resume was posted on both blogs and twitter. If you're in a creative field, make your resume look different from the standard one-page list.
4. Make a video resume

Researchers have studied how birth order affects kid’s personalities in the past, but one study out of the United Kingdom has found that firstborns may have an educational advantage over their younger siblings (兄弟姐妹).
Researchers at the University of Essex’s Institute for Social and Economic Research surveyed 3,553 individuals and 1,503 groups of siblings, and discovered that firstborn children tended to have higher educational aspirations and attainment. Only children and firstborn twins were not included in the study.
For each family involved in the study, researcher Feifei Bu examined sibling birth order, the number of children in the family, age spacing, sex, health, relationships with one another and educational aspirations. She found that firstborns had a greater probability—16 percent higher—of attending further education, compared with later-born sibling.
“The advantage of firstborns in educational outcomes may be partially explained by the fact that firstborns tend to have higher aspirations which push them toward high education levels,” Bu wrote in the published study.
She further explained to The Guardian that parenting could play a role. “It could be that the parents simply devote more time and energy to them; it could be that they are actually more intelligent. For me, I tend to lean towards the theory that the amount of time, energy and involvement that parents put into caring for their children is possibly at work here,” she said.
She also found age spacing to be a contributing factor. The further apart in age the siblings—for example, a six year instead of one year difference—the more likely both kids were to be successful. The idea is that with widely spaced siblings, parents have the ability to spread out their resources. In other words, they have time to give each child more time and money.
But younger siblings shouldn’t worry. The world is full of successful middle and youngest children willing to prove this study wrong.

2.What is possibly important for kids’ educational achievement according to Bu?
