上大学报选修课的时候,有人会根据个人的兴趣爱好做选择,有人则会考虑哪门课会对自己将来求职有帮助。后面的这种人往往就会发展成我们今天说的“哈证族”,他们会考取各种各样的证书来为自己的简历增加砝码,应该是“艺多不压身”那句话的最好实践者了,只是不知道效果如何。
Certificate maniac refers to many job-seeking youngsters, like graduating college students, who devote their time to preparing for exams that award an array of certificates proving their language and computer skills in the hope of securing an edge over other applicants in the job market.
“哈证族”指正在求职的年轻人,也包括大学毕业生,他们投入大量时间考取能够证明他们语言能力或者计算机技能的证书,希望这些证书可以帮助他们在求职时比其他应聘者更具优势。
For example:
This is the 5th certificate you’ve got in one year, you are really a certificate maniac.
这已经是你一年内拿到的第五个证书了,你可真是个“哈证族”。
