透視企業家是美國的一個在線社區，美國創業界最睿智、最有影響力的一些大咖會在這里及時回答與創業和職場有關的問題。今天的問題是：招聘者對求職簡歷最關注哪三點？回答者是電信軟件與服務供應商Amdocs的總經理加里?米爾斯。

對每位創業者來說，組建合適的團隊，平衡好人才的優勢與劣勢都是一件困難的工作。初創公司生存的頭號法則就是，單打獨斗必然失敗，招募新鮮血液時面試環節很關鍵。

假如你有意投身一家剛成立的初創公司，以下三點能助你脫穎而出。

表現頑強精神，而且無懼失敗

企業家天生有韌勁，就算其他人放棄，他們也會一直堅持追求夢想。但頑強精神既是優勢也是劣勢，你要顯示出不會盲目相信公司的產品天時地利。如果你的設想行不通，就應該當機立斷收手。鼓勵創新的優秀領導者不會將偶爾放棄當成缺點，所以你可以在簡歷中大方列出重要的失敗實例。只是要確保面對面交流時，多強調從失敗案例中吸取了哪些教訓。

迅速承認失敗并著手下一個項目也是本事，比死守想法冥頑不靈最后釀成巨大損失好得多。另外還得指出，我還喜歡能不斷改進想法的應聘候選人，他們能邊推進邊調整方向。

具有團隊精神

創業階段的公司拼的就是團隊合作，要求員工迅速融入工作流程，在扁平化管理的環境中鼓勵并維持合作。這時團隊合作精神就很關鍵。你應該表現出愿意與優秀的人才相處，信任他人，不會擔心觀點不一。沒有積極的領導風范和正面的態度很難成功，只盯著自己的一畝三分地也難成大器。你可以在簡歷中展示處事的靈活性，強調你曾在不同的環境下工作。

早年創業時，我總要處理管理層的爭斗，感覺常常要調解很多經理、各種角色、職責和創意的摩擦。后來我發現總是調解不是辦法。如今我在Amdocs就向大家公開表明，不會介入經理之間的爭端，要求他們彼此配合，共同找到解決方案。

有信心開疆辟壤

能抓住擴大業務規模的應聘者會引起我的興趣。許多出色的企業家創業之初都小有成績，可怎樣擴大公司，獲得商業化的成功并達到一定規模？你的簡歷應該向我展示你的好創意，并且如何充分利用創意，如何吸引適合的人才和必要的資金，采取措施推動大幅增長，不管是自然發展還是用什么野路子。你應該用案例介紹如何實現一些可以量化的成果，比如開拓了銷量或者潛在客戶，或是開發了新的合作關系。然后面試時詳細解釋為何你決定聘請某些人，或者做出某些決策。

另外別忘了，即便你打算跳槽，要競聘更大的公司，或者你服務的初創公司要被另一個品牌兼并，以上重要技巧也都用得上。就算身在大公司也不要丟掉開拓進取的意識，因為只有不斷進取才能孕育創新。（財富中文網）

The Entrepreneur Insiders network is an online community where the most thoughtful and influential people in America’s startup scene contribute answers to timely questions about entrepreneurship and careers. Today’s answer to the question, “What are the top three things you look for on a resume?” is written by Gary Miles, general manager at Amdocs.

One of the most difficult jobs for any entrepreneur is hiring the right team to properly balance strengths and weaknesses. The first rule of startup life is that if you go at it alone, you’re doomed to fail, making the interview process critical when hiring new talent.

If you’re interested in a new startup opportunity, here are three tips to get you noticed:

Show tenacity, but that you’re not afraid of failure

Entrepreneurs by nature are persistent and will pursue an idea long after others would have given up. However, tenacity can be both a strength and a weakness—you need to demonstrate that you won’t be blinded by a belief that your offering is in the right place at the right time. If you’re in a situation where your idea isn’t working, you have to allow yourself to quickly put it to rest. A good leader who creates an environment of innovation will not see this as a weakness, so don’t be shy to list key examples on your resume. Just be sure to couple the failed attempts with lessons learned during your in-person discussion.

Failing fast and jumping on the next great idea is a virtue, and much better than holding onto something well into expensive losses. On the same note, I like to see that potential candidates have flexibility to evolve an idea and pivot from where they originally started.

Show you’re a team player

In a startup environment, it’s all about the team and the ability to work in a fluid, less hierarchical environment that encourages and safeguards collaboration. Being a team player is key. Show that you’re willing to surround yourself with the right talent, trust others, and not be intimidated by conflicting ideas. You won’t succeed without positive leadership and attitude, or by getting territorial. You can showcase this flexibility on your resume by highlighting that you’ve worked in different types of work environments.

In my early startup days, I used to struggle more with conflict at the management level. I felt like I was a frequent arbitrator between managers, roles, responsibilities, and creative friction, and I can see now this wasn’t the right approach. Now, in my current role at Amdocs, I make it a public point not to get in between my managers, and make it clear that I expect them to collaborate and find a solution.

Show you can scale with confidence

To pique my interest, I need to see that a candidate can scale their business when the time is right. A lot of good entrepreneurs have some initial accomplishments, but how do you expand your organization into a commercial success and size? Through your resume, show me good ideas you’ve had, how you harnessed them, and how you attracted the right people and capital to make bold growth steps forward—whether through organic moves or inorganic ones. Use this as an opportunity to demonstrate some quantifiable results—like increased sales or leads, or new partnerships developed—and further expand upon why you made specific hires or decisions during your in-person discussion.

Keep in mind that you can use these key skills at larger companies should you shift careers, or if the startup you’re working for should be absorbed by another brand. There is a lot to be said for keeping entrepreneurial values in a large corporation as a way to foster innovation.
