上进心 gumption
highly praised by boss and colleagues for excellent work
precise, earnest, and self-demanding. Strict on quality control of the products.
"竖立良好的形象"跟"获得领导和同事的一致好评"意思重复了,没必要翻出来.
"一致好评"是中国特色的话,这么说老外只会觉得有点假,说highly praised就够了.
"高标准严要求"也是官僚主义味道很重的话,英语里没有对应的词.这里的高标准严要求明显是指对自己的要求高,用self-demanding就可以了.
"严把产品质量关"虽然是个动词短语,但前面的"严谨"和"踏实"都是形容词,这里最好保持词性一致.
写英文简历应该尽量简洁,多用合成词,比如self-demanding,self-motivated之类的,不要拖拖沓沓的.另外不能死板地照着中文翻译.尤其是那些只有新闻联播和政府报纸里才用的话,老外根本不会理解的.建议你先写英文简历再写中文简历,并且多到网上搜索一下老外的英文简历.

Totally agree.
As I am not living in mainland China, therefore I am particularly aware of the cultural and political differences. “领导” is an example.
老外call their领导as boss. In written English, the Chinese term 领导 (of an organization) is equivalent to superior, supervisor, supervising officer, managing staff etc. “Leader” is seldom used, especially in private companies.
Leader also means 领袖. In fact, most of the US people agree that President Lincoln Washington was their leader, but President Bush is only an employee of the US government; a civil servant serving US people, not their leader.

Not a 错误 , just a cultural difference.
If we are translating an novel of 60’, it may be appropriate to translate the word 领导 as “leader” (with quotation mark) and add a footnote (always used in translation) to explain what a 领导 means in China in 60’. At that time, one’s marriage may have to be approved by the 领导 of his unit!
The implied meaning of 领导 in mainland China is changing and 当局者, such as you, may not be aware of.
