原标题：职业空窗太久，求职信该怎么写？
简历中职业空窗期太久，找工作时，你就得在求职信里补充说明这点。
求职信是雇主与你之间的第一次沟通，你需要在其中 强调自己的空窗期并不应该成为用于衡量你是否能进入面试的决定性因素。
因此， 你要简单解释一下你在空窗期都做了什么，这样HR才不至于一看到你长达几年的空窗期、就直接把你的简历扔掉。
那么具体该怎么做呢？商英君来支招~
1
Work Experience
工作经历
The fact that you may have been unemployed for a long period doesnt take away from your professional experience and education.
即使你有较长的职业空窗期， 这也并不代表你的职业经历和教育背景会因此而打折扣。
Play up education and academic credentials in your resume.
简历中要 突出教育背景和学历，
In your cover letter, you could say, “My background includes 15-plus years experience in sales and marketing. My accomplishments include expanding into global markets in the IT industry and managing global presence in European and Latin American markets.”
并且写上：“我有15年以上的市场和销售经验，我曾成功地将公司业务拓展到全球IT市场，并成功使品牌跻身欧洲和拉丁美洲的国际市场。”
Refer the reader of your cover letter to your resume for information on your complete professional background.
要向浏览你简历的HR 展示你在行业中的整体能力。
Avoid describing your experience in past tense and definitely dont preface your accomplishments with phrases like “many years ago” or “in the past decade.”
不要用过去式描述你的经历，尤其是不以“多年以前”、“近十年来”这样的表达作为描述你成就的开头。
2
Family Responsibilities
家庭责任
If you took time off to raise a family, its perfectly acceptable to mention that.
如果你的空窗期是因为照顾家庭，那就说明这一点，大家都能理解。
In fact, if youre a former Missouri state employee looking to get rehired, youre eligible for a five-point parental preference in the competitive job selection process.
事实上（这里举的是美国的例子），如果求职者是前密苏里州雇员，为人父母后还能因此在就业市场中获得一定的青睐，
Other states might have similar laws, and some private sector employers may have policies that mirror those.
其他地区以及一些私企的雇主可能也会采取类似的法律以及倾斜政策。
3
Maintaining Knowledge
维持行业知识和技能
Employers want to know that you didnt let your skill set, knowledge or expertise atrophy during the time you were unemployed, according to Military.com.
据Military.com网站报道： 招聘人员想要的，是即使有空窗期、但职业技能也没有倒退的人。
Therefore, mention in your cover letter the ways youve maintained your industry knowledge.
所以， 在你的简历中要体现出你为了维持行业知识所做出的努力。
If youve attended professional conferences, done volunteer work, freelanced or anything that has kept you sharp in your field, absolutely mention it in your cover letter.
如果你曾参加过专业会议、做过志愿者、自由职业者，或者做过任何能提升专业能力的事情，一定要在简历中写出来。
For example, you could write, “In the two years since I was laid off when my previous employers business shut down, Ive volunteered three days a week working with the New York chapter of Society for Human Resource Management to develop its HR training and development library.”
比如，你可以写：“我在上一家公司停业后有两年的空窗期，在这段时间里，我为人力资源管理协会纽约分会担任每周三天的志愿者，帮助其开发人力资源培训及发展库。”

Avoid Making Excuses
不要找借口
Whatever you do, dont use your cover letter to give excuses about why youve been unemployed.
无论怎样， 不要在简历中为自己的空窗期找借口，
An unemployment letter of explanation is not even needed because recruiters know there are job seekers who have been unemployed for a long period.
更没有必要附上一封失业解释信，因为招聘者知道社会上存在有长时间空窗期的求职者，
Many of these job seekers have been unemployed for at least six months.
其中很多人有着长达至少6个月的空窗期。
Avoid badmouthing your previous employer or complaining about the shortage of jobs in your field.
不要说上一家公司的任何坏话，也不要抱怨行业就业难。
If youve been out of work for quite awhile, you may wish to use your cover letter to tell the hiring manager why youve been unemployed, but stick to a concise, factual explanation.
如果你有较长时间的职业空窗期，你可能想在求职信中解释自己为什么失业， 但一定要坚持用简洁的语言、基于事实的客观解释。
