Everyone knows how to introduce themselves, right? It's just like those name tags organizers pass out at networking events, "Hello, my name is…" Unfortunately, a lot of job seekers have a tough time getting beyond that very basic introduction. Sure, they can chat about where they grew up or their favorite book or movie, but when it comes time to say something smart and relevant about their job search interests, it gets a little tricky.

大家都知道怎么做自我介绍吗？大多时候我们都像是给自己贴上宣传标签，“你好，我叫……”，悲剧的是，大部分求职者都很难跳出这个基本的框框。当然，他们可以介绍自己来自哪里，或者喜欢的书籍或电影。但当要他们表现一番，谈谈工作见地时，一切又好像变得复杂起来。

Do you have a pitch about you, your skills, and accomplishments ready to use the next time someone asks what you're looking for? While conventional wisdom used to dictate you prepare a two-minute "elevator pitch," most elevator rides don't last two minutes, and most people's attention spans certainly don't.

下次面试官问你想做什么的时候，你能对自己的特长和成就对答如流么？一般情况下你都需要准备一个两分钟的“电梯游说”（小编注：电梯游说又叫电梯法则，即假设你在电梯里，只有30秒的时间来向一位关系公司前途的大客户推广产品且必须成功）。 但实际上正如电梯行驶不超过两分钟一样，人的注意力也持续不了这么久。
