十大滥用词语——responsible(有责任心的)、strategic(擅用策略的)、creative(有创造力的)、effective(有效率的)、patient(有耐心的)、expert(经验丰富的)、organizational(组织能力强的)、driven(奋发图强的)、innovative(有创新性的)、analytical(善于分析的)。

　　"Responsible", "creative" and "strategic" are just some of Linkedin’s most overused words in users’ profiles – adjectives that the professional networking site says no longer carry any weight to prospective employers.

　　据职业社交网站Linkedin统计，“有责任心”“有创造力”和“有策略”在网站用户的个人简介中使用最为广泛，但可能对潜在的雇主毫无说服力。

　　Culling from a list of words used by its 259million members worldwide, Linkedin discovered that "expert" and "driven" are also among its most popular -- and most nebulous -- words.

　　基于Linkedin对全球2.5亿用户的词语使用调查，“经验丰富”和“奋发图强”也位列词语滥用榜单。

　　The annual list’s top buzzword, "responsible" was used almost twice as much as its number two spot, "strategic."

　　在今年的年度热词排行中，位于榜首的“有责任心”的使用量几乎是第二名词语“有策略”的两倍之多。

　　The social media site, which is used as a professional tool for networking, job search, and recruitment, often provides employers with a first impression of what someone’s work ethics are all about.

　　Linkedin是一个以保持社会关系、求职和找工作为目的的职业社交网站。公司通常会通过网站上的个人简介对求职者的职业素养留下第一印象。

　　For that reason, the site cautions: "Your Linkedin profile is your professional brand, so make it count. Demonstrate your skills and experience by providing examples of your talent rather than using buzzwords." In the case of the word "responsible" Linkedin says that "rather than saying you are responsible for something, demonstrate how that responsibility delivered results."

　　正因如此，网站告诫大众：“你在Linkedin上的个人简介同时也是你的一张个人名片，所以不要做无用功。你应该用一些具体的例子来证明你的能力，而不是一味地使用一些形容词。” 以词语“有责任心”为例，网站指出：“不要陈述你对哪一件事情很负责，而是要设法向雇主证明你的责任感带来了哪些工作成果。”

　　Linkedin also broke down users’ buzzwords by country and found that "enthusiastic" is only popular in Great Britain, while "passionate" is exclusive to Australia and New Zealand.The U.S. – which accounts for 50per cent of Linkedin’s usership – is the only nation with "patient" in its list of top ten buzzwords.

　　除此之外，Linkedin也按地域对用户使用的词语进行了分类。有意思的是，“充满热情”只在英国比较流行，而“激情四射”受到了奥地利及新西兰用户的青睐。同时，占据Linkedin用户一半以上的美国是唯一一个“有耐心”在十大热词排行榜中上榜的国家。
