Check LinkedIn and Naukri for top skills
Use ResumeGyani's AI suggestions
Prioritize both hard and soft skills

Tip: Use keywords from the job ad!

Show, Don't Just Tell

Back up your skills with examples. Instead of just listing 'Communication', write 'Led weekly team meetings and presented project updates to management.' Quantify your impact where possible.

Use action verbs
Give context for each skill
Quantify achievements (e.g., 'Reduced errors by 30%')

Pro Tip: Numbers make your skills credible!

Keep It Relevant and Updated

Tailor your skills section for each job. Remove outdated or irrelevant skills. Use ResumeGyani's ATS checker to ensure your skills match the job requirements for 2025 roles.
