你们怎么定义该职位的最佳候选人的呢？

The best way to get an edge on the competition? Make yourself a more competitive candidate.
获得竞争优势的最好方法是什么？那就是让你自己更有竞争力。
Don't Request Special Treatment 不要要求特殊的待遇
Although you may wish you were, you're probably not the only candidate for the job.
虽然你非常希望自己是该份职位的唯一候选人，但遗憾的是情况并非如此。
And, while recruiters are often happy to help, their aim is not to be your advocate to the hiring manager. Their aim is to fill a position.
而且，虽然招聘人员经常乐于助人，但是他们的目的却并不是将你推荐给招聘经理，而是为该份工作职位找到合适的人选。
Never ask a recruiter to put in a good word for you with the hiring manager. If they think you're a strong candidate, they'll probably sing your praises anyway.
绝对不要要求一位招聘工作人员在人力资源经理面前帮你说好话。反正如果他们觉得你是一位优秀的候选人，他们也会自主赞美你的。
Also, don't ask them to relay a message to the hiring manager for you. Instead of saying, "Tell So-and-So it was very nice to meet him ...," send a thank you note.
另外，也不要叫他们帮你向招聘经理传话。不要说“告诉某某某、某某某很高兴认识他”，正确的做法是发一封感谢信。
Taking the initiative and speaking for yourself shows the hiring manager that you're capable, confident and conscientious.
主动为自己说话能够向招聘经理展示你是有能力的，自信而尽职的。
Remember, if you treat the recruiter well, chances are they'll treat you the same way.
记住，如果你善待招聘的工作人员，他们以同样的方式对待你的机会就越大。
