【Email Template】搵工必學!5步寫好電郵 廣邀朋友介紹筍工
臨近年尾,轉工辭職的心總是蠢蠢欲動,如何利用電郵(Email)使用人情牌,邀請他人幫自己打聽筍工資訊呢?
據非正式統計,有7成職位空缺都是由人脈介紹而成,靠閒聊傳遞資訊當然不壞,但用電郵的效率自然更高。打工仔要謹記,最重要是言之有物,重點地表達自己的想法和想要找的工作類型,別人才能清楚你的意向。
更新了履歷表與LinkedIn資料,那就是時候在自己的人際圈子中下手了!但這一步其實會令不少人生畏的,因這要求你先擁有不錯的人緣,然後就要想:應與誰聯絡?應該怎樣做第一步?怎樣開口才不會尷尬?
有求於人似是會為人帶來麻煩,但相信其實仍有很多人樂意提供協助的,就是要先把自己的要求與期望整理好,然後詳細及清晰地告訴對方,讓別人在幫忙時懂得更準確地「收風」,使你所得的命中率都會高一點。
要善用自己的人脈幫忙搵工,用Email是一個效率高且方便的方法。以下所介紹的5個步驟,應能助你眾志成城齊搵工!
第一步:起草你的對話重點
雖然你已經準備好最新的履歷,但比起詳細的履歷,大家會想看到一個更簡短和精準、關於你工作經驗與以往工作範疇,以及將要尋找什麼類型工作的列表。建議內容長度以不會需要別人閱讀超過10分鐘為理想。
列表內容需包括三點﹙按圖了解﹚:
第二步:發送大量email
第二步是聯繫你人際網絡中的所有人。寫一封email,告訴大家你正在尋找工作,並希望尋求協助。
Email所包含的訊息應包括你當前的職位和公司、你在此工作了多久、你在找哪類型工作及你想加入哪些公司等。即使你的朋友早已知道你的背景及要求,也不要介意重覆多寫一篇,因為若他們替你轉發這Email,你所不認識的人亦會輕易地對你有了解。當然,記得在這email內附上你的履歷表。
請求別人幫忙搵工email範例:
Hi friends and colleagues,
I hope all is well!
As many of you know, I have been at my current position as Account Executive for Smith PR for almost 3 years. I have recently decided to look for a new challenge in the public relations field and am reaching out to you to ask for your help with any leads or contacts.
I am looking for a mid-level public relations position in San Francisco, ideally in the tech or consumer products field. I am particularly interested in joining an agency, but would also consider interesting in-house work.
If you know of any job opportunities or leads that you might be able to share with me, please send them my way. Below, I have included a list of my past experience, my target positions, and my list of dream companies. I have also attached my resume for your reference, and feel free to pass it along.
Thanks in advance for your help! I hope you all are doing well and hope to catch up with you individually soon
第三步:發送針對性的email
有意尋求前老闆、前上司或正在你心儀公司上班的朋友幫忙,可以發送針對性的email給他們,以尋求他們一些實際及特定的幫助。
這些特定的email要度身訂造,除了要寫上對方的姓名外,也應列舉你希望他們提供哪些幫忙,並要愈具體愈好。你可以問他們會不會有工作介紹的機會,亦可查問有關職業的行情及公司資訊,也可以請教他們對應徵心儀職位的建議和就自己的履歷表給予意見等。

Hi Susan,
I hope all is well! I saw the photos of the conference you held last month on Facebook—it looked like a fantastic event.
I’m reaching out because I’m currently seeking a new position. As you know, I have been Smith PR for almost three years, but I’m ready for a new challenge in the tech PR world.
I know that you used to do work for Ogilvy, which is on my short list of dream companies. Do you still have any contacts there, and if so, is there someone that might be willing to do an informational interview with me? Any introductions you could make would be greatly appreciated.
In addition, if you know of any job opportunities or leads that you might be able to share with me, please send them my way. I’ve attached my resume for your reference, and feel free to pass it along.
Thanks in advance for your help! Please keep me posted on how things are going and if there’s anything I can do to return the favor.
第四步:耐心等待
你當然希望在發出email後的兩小時內收到朋友轉介工作機會給你的回覆,但得明白,在現實中,這些詢問過程是需時的,所以在發出email要有耐性。即使得不到即時的回覆,但風聲一出,有心的朋友自然會默默地替你留意。
如果等了一個月都沒有太多消息,也可以發送一個友好的電郵提醒,不過緊記要用友好的語氣,並不是催促他們,所以一封就夠!
友好提醒email範例:
Hi everyone,
Thanks so much for the great leads and feedback you’ve sent so far. I just wanted to update you that I’m still searching for that perfect opportunity, so if you have any leads come your way, please pass them along. I hope all is well!
第五步:有禮貌講謝謝
一定,一定,一定要對每一個回應你email及幫助你的人說謝謝,即使他們提供的聯絡未必有用,但都要表示你的謝意!得到幫助不是必然的,但他們既然願意幫忙,也好應讓他們知道你很感謝他們所伸出的援手。
