1.increase one's employability
增加就业能力
e.g. Hands-on-experience acquired through community service will not only be an asset on their CV, but also increase their employability.
社区服务中所获得的实践经验不仅能成为简历上的亮点,而且还能增强他们的就业能力。
Notes:
not only…but also…“不仅,而且”,注意not only和but also后面所接的语法成分要一致。
acquired through community service是分次结果做后置定语,修饰hands-on experience,相当于定语从句that are acquired through community service。
service作“服务”是不可数名词,作“公共事业”是可数名词,比如:public services。

注意词组make the most of sth.充分利用。
be more likely to do sth.很可能做某事。
mass of表示“大量,许多”,相当于a considerable number of。

近几年来,很多毕业生都找不到工作,或者只能找到与专业无关的工作。
Notes:
注意词组:a considerable number of很多,后接可数名词复数。
end up doing sth. 表示“最后处于……”。
找工作:work in positions = find jobs / employment。
