往届受训学生心得体会

2007年，20多个人申请参加华思道培训项目，我很幸运的最终成为了该项目的成员并且完成了所有培训项目。我觉得如果你从来没有去国外留学或者工作过，这个培训项目就像是在你去跨国企业或外资法律事务所工作前必须参加的一堂预备课程。通过这个培训项目你将会学习到许多你在大学里学不到，但却对你的职业起步非常重要的东西。这个培训将会帮助你理解西方人的逻辑思考方式，系统化一致性的写作方法以及熟练的求职技巧。除此之外，你将会在培训过程中发现很多乐趣。和同学，老师成为朋友，可能还有老师的小狗Scott。不要错过这么好的培训项目。总有一天你会想念这个培训。

——邵颖君， 华东师范大学2009年法律硕士，现中国持证律师

我于2006年参加了华思道的项目培训，从我敬爱的导师Nestor Gounaris以及其他客座讲师。我学会了如何写好一份好的简历和一些其他的技能。一份成功的简历必须将所有有益的信息比如学历背景及经验有系统的清晰的列明。同时，简历中不应该出现一些非专业及不合理的信息例如兴趣爱好之类。相信我，一份工整且内容充实的简历会让你在求职时显得与众不同。我依然记得当我第一次将这样的一份简历递给一家大型国有船舶公司的人事经理时，他赞叹道：哇，你的简历写得非常工整。然后我顺利的得到了这家公司的实习生岗位。

Testimonials from Previous Mentorees

In 2007, more than twenty candidates applied to take part in the CS Mentoring Program. I was lucky enough to become a member of the Program and luckier to complete the Program. If you never study or work abroad, the Program is somewhat like a preparatory class you must take before working for MNCs or foreign law firms. In the Program you will learn a lot of things that are never taught in college, but are essential for you to start your career, such as the western logical thinking style, organized and consistent writing methods, and sophisticated job-hunting skills. Besides, you will have a lot of fun in the Program making friends with your peers, the mentor and probably Scout, the mentor’s dog. Don’t miss the Program!

I took part in China Solutions Mentoring Program in 2006 and I learned a lot from my dear mentor – Nestor Gounaris - and other guest instructors. Among other skills, I learned how to write a successful resume. For example, all useful information such as educational background and legal experience should be included in an organized manner while unprofessional nonsense such as one’s hobbies should not appear. Trust me, such a neat and informative resume will make your application outstanding among others. I still remember the first time I handed over such a resume to the HR manager of a large national shipping enterprise and the manager said to me, “Wow, you have such a well-organized resume,” and  I got the internship I wanted.
