What employers are looking for obviously varies from job to job, but many businesses like hiring recent graduates for one or more of the following reasons. Remember these advantages when putting together your resume and preparing for interviews。
职业的不同，老板需要的员工也不尽相同。但很多公司喜欢以下列原因聘请应届生。记着把这些优点写进简历，好好为面试做准备吧。
1.You Understand a Valuable Demographic That Is Hard to Reach
1.你了解同龄人的想法
Nearly all businesses and non-profit organizations want to capture the attention and wallets of the consumer demographic you belong to, 18- to 24-year-olds. But they often struggle to understand the demographic’s mindset, motivations, purchasing behaviors, and communication styles. Having someone like you who’s in the demographic can help the company to design products, craft messaging, and deliver delightful customer experiences to this important target audience。
基本上所有的公司以及非营利组织都希望吸引18至24岁客户的眼球和钱包。但是他们往往不了解这个年龄段的人到底在想些什么，想要什么，有什么购买习惯以及交流方式。有你这个年龄段的员工，可以帮助公司设计产品，编写信息，以及给重要的目标客户传达有用的客户体验。
2.Technology and Social Media Is Part of Your DNA
2.熟悉技术和社交媒体
Businesses want to reach prospects, customers, employees, and vendors through technology. Senior execs realize that there is untapped potential in Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Yelp, mobile apps, etc. But they may not know the most effective ways to use these tools. As someone who has most likely grown up with computers and other technology, you intuitively grasp how to use things like social media that can confuse older generations。
公司都希望通过科技来满足客户、员工以及卖家的期望。老员工意识到facebook，推特，pinterest，yelp以及手机app这一系列的平台有着无尽的潜力，但是他们并不知道如何有效地利用它们。但对于你这样在电脑和科技中长大的年轻人来说，如何利用这些传媒的运作几乎是你的本能，而老员工却对这些爱莫能助。
3.You Are Willing to Take Risks
3.你愿意冒险
As businesses innovate and experiment with new ways of doing business, they need team members who are eager to contribute and willing to take on projects with uncertain outcomes. The ability to learn from failure is particularly valuable。
当公司准备开拓和尝试新的运营方法时，他们需要有奉献精神的团队来承担一些收入未知但风险较大的项目。即使失败了，若能够从中吸取教训，也是十分难得的。
4.You Are a Blank Slate in Terms of Company Knowledge
4.对于公司的知识来说，你就说一张白纸
Many managers prefer to hire people who they can shape to thrive in a unique environment. In the past, they may have become frustrated with seemingly qualified employees who were too bound to standard industry practices and business models. Your lack of experience means that you can easily adopt your new employer’s way of doing business。
很多经理都希望雇佣那些能轻易塑造的人才以便适应不同的环境。过去，他们对那些看起来老资历的员工感到十分头疼，这些人都被产业的规则和公司模式限制得太死，毫无改变的余地了。然而对于缺乏经验的你而言，可以轻易地适应新老板处理事物的方式。
5.You Aren’t Afraid to Ask Questions
5.你不怕问问题
Long-time employees may think that asking questions reveals inadequacies, so they often keep quiet. And when you ask questions, your boss generally really appreciates it. Asking questions demonstrates you are eager to learn, have wrestled with an issue (rather than ignoring it)， desire to have a deep understanding。
大部分员工都觉得问问题就表明自己某方面有不足，所以宁愿保持沉默。但当你问问题的时候，老板通常会很赞赏。问问题就表明你愿意学习，真的重视这个问题(而没有忽略它)，希望能有更深的理解。
6.Travel Is Exciting to You
6.你热爱到处走走
Many entry-level positions involve extensive travel. Such jobs may require long hours in the field not only during the typical workweek but also on the weekend. Further, there may be an expectation that you show enthusiasm and effectively represent the company to consumers, vendors, and colleagues on these visits. When you're young (and likely haven't started a family yet)， traveling is a lot easier and more likely to be seen as a fun adventure rather than an inconvenience。
很多初级部门的员工都需要出差。这也许会要求你花大量的时间到处奔波，不仅工作日，周末也是如此。并且公司还会希望你能对客户，买家以及同事给予最大的热情。年轻的时候(还没成家)，出差很方便。而且出差对于你来说，似乎更多的是冒险的好机会而不是麻烦事。
7.Relocation Is Not a Problem
7.换职位也没问题
Employers may have difficulty attracting employees to certain locations. Hiring managers may have tried to extend job offers that were rejected because candidates did not want to uproot themselves and their families. As a new grad, you may be more likely to move for a decent opportunity. Plus, you can accept changing locales multiple times early in your career to gain valuable experiences。
老板们总会对把员工放在哪个岗位上感到十分头疼。当员工不愿与家人分开而拒绝工作邀请时，老板便不得不放宽限制。作为一名新人，你要表现出对机会的渴望，并且愿意接受任何职位的变动来获得更多的经验。
