写下你对理想工作的要求

The point is, dream jobs aren't a one-size-fits-all kind of deal. And that means that your ultra-customized dream job is the perfect job for you, not the whole world of job-seekers. So your task is first to understand what you're looking for, and decide which elements in your wish list are most critical for you; and then to make and execute a plan to go out and find that job. The very worst way to land a dream job is to wait for it to find you. 关键的一点是要知道理想的工作并不是“一刀切”的买卖。意思是说为你量身定做的理想工作对你来说是完美的，但对全部人来说却并不如此。因此，你的首要任务是要去了解你想要什么，你的“愿望清单”上哪些元素最适合你；然后再制定一个计划加以执行，找到那样的工作。寻找理想工作的下下策就是等工作来找你。

As you create your dream job must-have list, it's helpful to think about your wishes in two separate categories. In your first category, you'll list the \"hard\" attributes you're hoping to find in a dream job -- company size, industry, job function, local or global enterprise, level of management, division vs. headquarters role, etc. Geography is perhaps the \"hardest\" -- the least flexible of dimensions. Would you move across the country or abroad for your dream job? Will you move across town, doubling your commute? Think really hard about these questions, because these factors aren't likely to change. 在你开出一张理想工作要素清单时，将你的期望要素分成两类。在第一类中，列出的是理想工作中的“硬指标”——公司大小，行业，职能，当地或全球企业，管理程度，部门还是总部，等等。地理因素也许是最“硬”的因素——它的灵活度最小。你愿意为了理想的工作而搬家甚或搬到国外吗？你愿意让上班往返行程增加吗？好好的想清楚这些问题，因为它们是不太可能改变的。

Be as specific as you'd like as you create your dream job profile. For instance, \"I want to manage human resource information systems for a global employer with 10,000 or more employees and a proactive, forward-looking management team in the apparel industry in the New York metro area.\" In fact, the narrower your scope, the easier it will be to identify potential employers and begin to research them. But before you do that, let's back up and list the 'soft' attributes of your dream job. After all, it's these soft elements that make these jobs so dreamy. 要尽可能明确地描述理想工作。比如：”我希望在纽约大都市地区为这样的公司管理人力资源系统.
