The university-level college, founded by philosopher Professor AC Grayling, says nearly 500,000 graduates will flood the job market this month - but thousands will make silly mistakes on their CV, which in turn dampens their chances of becoming employed.

这座大学水平的学院由哲学家AC·格雷宁教授建立。该学院的研究发现,将近50万名毕业生这个月将涌向就业市场,其中几千名学生在简历中犯一些愚蠢的错误,而这也缩小了他们求职成功的可能。
Unsurprisingly, the worst mistakes to make on a CV are typos and grammatical errors, especially using 'there' 'their' and 'they're' incorrectly, and 'your' and 'you're'.
不出所料,这些英文简历上最严重的失误就是打字错误或语法错误,尤其是错误地使用there、their和they're以及错用your和you're。
This is followed by a casual tone, such as using 'you guys' in email correspondence or signing off with 'cheers' to a prospective employer - as well as coming across as laid-back on the CV.
第二个常犯的错误是语气随便,例如在邮件交流中使用“你们这帮家伙”或者在邮件结尾向未来的雇主写道“祝健康”(cheers),以及在简历中让雇主觉得你很散漫。
In third place is the use of jargon and clichés, such as 'thinking outside the box' and stating perfectionism as your weakness.
排在第三位的错误是使用术语与陈词滥调,例如“跳出思维定式”以及将完美主义列为自己的缺点。

Here are the top ten pet hates:

In terms of worn clichés, almost half of CVs typically state the person tends to 'work well independently,' and a third say they are a 'team player.'

在陈腔滥调方面,近一半的人在简历中会将自己表述为“善于独立工作”,三分之一说自己“有团队精神”。

Almost twice as many women lie about their hobbies and interests compared to men.
