Among the most common types of career advice that people toss around are tips for job hunting. But be careful who you take advice from, because the workplace is changing very fast right now. As the new generation makes its voice heard at work, a lot of the old rules no longer apply. Here are two job-hunting rules that will hold you back if you're not careful:

Bad Rule No. 1: Draw a clear picture of yourself. A résumé is not supposed to give the story of your life; it's a marketing document. So the goal is not to tell every single thing about yourself, but rather to get an interview. And the best way to land an interview is to make the employer want to find out more about you.

Bad Rule No. 2: Don't be too narrow. If you're not narrow, then what are you selling? Think about cars. Is a BMW the car that meets every need for every person? Is a Saturn the car for high-end and low-end markets? You're no different from a car. You can't be everything to everyone.

Q 11: What is the passage about?

Q 12: What can we infer from the passage?

Q 13: What does the author think about résumés? Q 14: What is the best way to get an interview? Q 15: In what sense are people like cars?
