名人教英文：写好应征信
最近，我招聘助理，和许多雇主一样，除了看应征信的内容之外，还会留意应征者的文笔。今次就讨论常见的应征信用语。
?i am writing to express my interest in the position of ... as advertised in/on....
interest配in，而非for或of。advertised可配in或on，视乎广告出处，报章或杂志配in (in a newspaper/a magazine)，网页配on (on a website)。
?i graduated from xxx university.
有应征者说：i was graduated from xxx university. 现代英语已弃用这个说法，应该改用active voice的i graduated from...。
?in my previous job, i was responsible for administrative work.
responsible for something/ doing something 不能写成responsible to do something。work解「工作」时，为不可数名词，不加s。
?my experience in the field of public relations qualifies me for the position.
experience解作「经验」时，属不可数名词；解作「经历」时，属可数名词。谈工作经验，应该用experience，后面不加s。把「工作经验」直译成work experience，不及experience简洁、地道。working experience、work experiences等说法就更不妥当。
