Not an Easy Road

不容易的路

Research and follow-up are key for dream-job seekers, but you've got an advantage over less proactive job seekers. You know what you want and you can spell out why this employer is a good fit for you. That's something that most job-seekers can't do -- certainly not the people who blast out 20 resumes a day to whichever companies have posted jobs on the biggest careers sites. 研究和跟进是寻找理想工作的关键。相对于不怎么事先行动的人来说这就是你的优势。你知道自己想要什么，能清楚地说明为何这样的雇主适合你。这是大部分找工作的人做不到的一点--那些在求职网站上一天就给那些招聘单位发出20封简历的人更是做不到这一点。

It could take you six months or a year to land your dream job, and it could take a change of location. It could require an industry or functional shift and a lot of networking, hours of research, and more hours of follow-up, online and over the phone. If that sounds too daunting, you could take the next job that comes down the pike. But don't you deserve at least one dream job in your career? 要找到一份你向往的工作也许要花上六个月甚或一年，可能会要求你去异地工作。可能会改换工作内容行或改行，需要进行大量的关系往来，调研，还要花更多的时间在网上或通过电话跟进。如果你觉得这过程很吓人，你就选下一次出现的工作机会也可以。但是，难道在你的职业生涯中，至少拥有过一次自己向往的工作不是值得的吗？
