How to Ask for a Promotion

如何开口？

 

1. Be Prepared to Ask

. 1. 准备好去说。

Your employer may recognize your star qualities and offer you a promotion. Of course, it's much easier when it happens that way. However, for some jobs and at some organizations you may need to apply for a promotion. Expect that you may have to ask or apply for the promotion you want. 你的雇主可能发现了你的星级员工特质就给你升职了。当然，如果真的是这样，事情就变得容易多了。然而，对于某些职业和某些公司机构来说，你还得自己申请升职。所以要做好心理准备，你可能需要自己申请想要晋升的职位。

 

 2. Discuss With Your Boss.

 2. 与老板讨论。

 Be sure to let your boss know that you are interviewing for a new position. You'll want him or her on your team because your references will be checked. It's not a good idea to keep it a secret because your boss is going to find out. It's better that he or she hears it from you than from human resources. Do offer to help with the transition if you're selected for promotion. 请注意，如果你在面试一个新的职位的话，要告知你的老板。你可能会需要他/她，因为你的推荐信会被纳入考核的环节。保密不是一个好的方法，因为你的老板总会发现的。你宁可亲口告诉他/她，也不希望他/她从人事部得知消息。如果升职落实了，切记主动协助职位调动的过渡期。

 

 3. Check Open Job Listings.

3. 看看公司有哪些职位空缺。

 Most large companies and many smaller companies list job openings on the company website. Some positions may be open to internal candidates prior to being available for external applicants, so you'll have a jump on the competition. Check regularly for new listings and apply for jobs that are a good fit for your background and experience. 大多数的大型公司和许多小型公司都会在公司的网站上发布职位招聘的消息。有些职位也许会在开放给外部求职者前，优先照顾内部的员工，那么你就有必要拼一拼了。多留意最新的招聘信息，然后申请一个符合自己背景和经验的职位。

 

4. Follow the Application Process.

4. 遵循求职流程。

Don't presume you're going to get the job. The company may be considering external candidates as well as other employees for the job. Also, don't presume that the hiring manager or department manager reviewing your qualifications will know your background. Take the time to update your resume and to write a targeted cover letter for the job you are interested in. Follow the application process, if there is a formal procedure for applying for internal job postings. 不要认为自己真的能够得到升职的机会。公司机会考虑内部员工也会考虑外部求职者。再者，不要以为审核你升职资格的招聘经理或部门主管会了解你的背景。花点时间更新你的简历，写一份符合你目标职位要求的求职信。如果有一个正式的内部求职流程的话，记得要遵循它。

 

5. Get References.

5. 寻求他人的推荐。

Ask your supervisor and other managers you've worked with for a letter of recommendation. References, especially from high-level staff, carry a lot of weight. 请求你的主管或与你共事过的经理撰写一份求职推荐信。推荐信，尤其是高层管理人员的推荐信，在面试的时候会起到举足轻重的作用。

 

6. Ace the Promotion Interview.

6. 搞定升职面试。

When you are being considered for a promotion or applying for a new job within the company, you may be required to interview for the position. 如果你想要申请升职，或者在公司内部转换工作岗位，那么你有可能需要进行一次职位的面试。

 

7. Send a Thank You Note.

7. 发送感谢信。

 Send a thank you note or thank you email message to everyone you interviewed with reiterating your interest in the position. 给参与面试的人员发送一封感谢信或致谢电子邮件，并在信件里重申你对该职位的求职意愿。

 

8. Take the Time to Say Goodbye.

8. 找时间好好道别。

 If all goes well and you're offered the promotion, take the time to say goodbye to your current co-workers and to let them know you'll stay in touch. Do wait until after the company formally announces your promotion to tell them. It's important that the company makes the announcement first before you tell your colleagues. 如果事情进展顺利，你得到了升职机会，那么要记得找时间与现在的同事好好道别，让他们知道你会与他们保持联系。在公司正式发出晋升公告时，再告诉他们这个好消息。请记住，最终结果要让公司正式发布了，你才能通知大家，这是很值得注意的细节。
