Current technology requires the user to wear a special helmet, viewing goggles, gloves, and other equipment that transmits and receives information from the computer.
Virus
An unauthorized piece of computer code attached to a computer program or portions of a computer system that secretly copies itself from one computer to another by shared discs and over telephone and cable lines. It can destroy information stored on the computer, and in extreme cases, can destroy operability. Computers can be protected from viruses if the operator utilizes good virus prevention software and keeps the virus definitions up to date. Most viruses are not programmed to spread themselves. They have to be sent to another computer by e-mail, sharing, or applications.The worm is an exception, because it is programmed to replicate itself by sending copies to other computers listed in the e-mail address book in the computer. There are many kinds of viruses, for example:
- Boot viruses place some of their code in the start-up disk sector to automatically execute when booting. Therefore, when an infected machine boots, the virus loads and runs.
- File viruses attached to program files (files with the extension .exe). When you run the infected program, the virus code executes.
- Macro viruses copy their macros to templates and/or other application document files.
- Trojan Horse is a malicious, security-breaking program that is disguised as something being such as a screen saver or game.

300+ Resume Skills to Use on Your Resume
Resume Skills
Wondering what skills to put on your resume? Dive into our list of 300+ resume skills we’ve extracted from analyzing over 1,000,000 resumes, learn how to include them in yours, and increase your chances of landing a job interview.
You have to curate resume skills that:
showcase your experience, but also align with the job requirements;
are just what the recruiters need, but help you stand out from the crowd;
reveal as many details about your proficiency; without going over the two-page limit.
Writing about your skills seems daunting – like you’re fighting an uphill battle.
Yet, the potential wins are worth it: from landing an interview to getting a job offer.
So, here’s our explicit guide on how to write about your skills on your resume:
What’s the perfect balance between hard and soft skills?
Why should you list your skills on your resume?
How to list skills on your resume;
Over 150 popular niche skills for over 15 industries.
The difference between hard skills and soft skills
Recruiters look for both hard and soft skills in a job application.
Before we get into the details of what both types of skills imply, we’d like to focus on how the skills are acquired, used, demonstrated, and measured.
Skill acquisition
Hard skills are attained via on-the-job experience, education, training, or certification.
While soft skills are obtained in a more intangible manner: via life or work experience.
Skill usage
Hard skills are used directly within your role – you need them to complete specific tasks.
Soft skills are most often related to how your flexible mindset is able to adapt, communicate, and excel within a new (potentially unfamiliar) work environment.
Skill showcase
It’s easy to demonstrate your hard skills through various resume sections – showing recruiters what you’re capable of.
Soft skills often complement your hard skills, thus providing unique value to your professional resume.
Skill measurement
Hard skills can be quantified based on your achievements, certifications, proficiency level, etc.
While soft skills could be a bit more difficult to pinpoint and could mainly be understood via your resume highlights.
If you’re still wondering if you should include both hard and soft skills on your resume – this should serve as your wake-up call. Yes, use both. They serve as a guiding lighthouse to recruiters.
Now, for a more brief definition of the two types of skills.
Hard skills comprise of the technical know-how and capabilities you possess: they are learned through studying and can be measured based on your performance.
Some of the more popular hard skills include:
Software Development and Programming – they include methodologies, frameworks, and programming languages;
Data Analysis and Statistics – abilities to systematize, interpret, and present data;
Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) – all concepts used to solve tangible problems;
Cloud Computing – building and managing secure cloud systems;
Cybersecurity – skills to protect networks and systems against malicious actors;
Project Management – the process of overseeing projects to reach success;
Digital Marketing – data-backed strategies for various channels;
Graphic Design – creating appealing design via different mediums;
UX/ UI Design – enhancing the user experience;
Financial Analysis – assessing financial data (potentially using software) to integrate financial models for better predictability;
Foreign Languages – opening doors to more international opportunities.
Soft skills are transferable skills: characteristics and habits that are most associated with you as a person. They indicate to recruiters just how well you will adapt, perform, and grow within a new environment.
Recruiters are constantly on the lookout for these types of soft skills:
Communication
Collaboration
Problem-Solving
Critical Thinking
Adaptability
Leadership
Organization
Negotiation
Innovation
Interpersonal Skills
Presentation
Why listing skills is important
Your skills are one of the most important sections, as they help your potential employers to identify whether you would be a good fit for the role.
Consider the whole recruitment process from the recruiter’s point of view.
You have a thousand applications for the same role.
You’ll either briefly skim the document to identify relevant skills. Or work with an Applicant Tracker System (ATS) to identify relevant keywords.
So, including a separate skills section, gives recruiters the opportunity to familiarize themselves with:
a snapshot of your core (and other) competencies;
transferable skills that will help you thrive within a new environment;
how your resume qualifications (professional background and education) are supported;
the specific (or unique) potential you’ll bring with your in-demand, rare, or relevant skills.
Lack of relevant skills (keywords), placed at the top of their resume, often leads to a rejection from the ATS.
To avoid this, include this separate skills section to hint that:
you possess the relevant competencies for the role;
meet or even exceed the job requirements;
you can bring the desired skill set to the table.
The best skills to put on your resume
Building your skills section would very much depend on the role you’re applying for.
For example, say you’re applying for a Cloud computing architect job. In this case, your ability to implement relevant technologies are a prerequisite for recruiters.
But if you do include instances where you’ve had to present information to stakeholders, this would set you apart from other candidates.
The more real-life examples you’re able to narrate through your resume (with relevant skills and achievements), the better recruiters start to understand your professional profile.
Software Development and Programming
With the rise of technologies, these will continue to be one of the most in-demand hard skills for the next decade or so.
Demonstrating your software development knowledge could be via various resume sections – as long as you’ve noted the outcome of your use of the particular skill.
As this is a pretty vast field that includes numerous abilities – Web and Mobile Development; Version Control; Various Frameworks and Databases; Agile Methodologies; Software Testing and more – we’ve listed some of the most popular technologies:
Python
Java and JavaScript
C++ and C#
Ruby
Swift
Go
PHP
HTML and CSS
Java or Kotlin for Android apps
React
Angular
Vue.js
Node.js
Data Analysis and Statistics
Data has become one of the most valuable assets – those with the ability to understand and interpret it will discover many opportunities ahead.
This field again includes various hard skills, from Data Manipulation and Mining to Big Data and Machine Learning.
Discover a list of some of the most popular Data technologies:
Statistical Analysis
SQL
Python (with libraries like pandas)
R (with packages like dplyr)
Excel

How to list skills on your resume
To list skills on your resume, consider what works in light of the job requirements and will match your authentic skill set (and voice).
We’ve discovered six best practices that highlight strategy, space, and thought process, so you could make the most of your resume skills.
Find skills the company is looking for
First, read the advert job description.
It is most often the case that recruiters include all relevant keywords under the requirements or qualifications section.
Take this exercise one step further by assessing other aspects of the job advert (e.g. company history and mission, and even its style and tone of voice). This will help you to better understand the organization’s values and the soft skills you could include.
Find the ones that are applicable to your experience, that you excel in – skills that will best sell your niche expertise. Apart from within a dedicated section, find ways to include all relevant skills naturally throughout your resume.
As a final step to your research process, check out the company’s website for even more gold nuggets related to what the company is all about.
This way, you’ll be able to identify if you’ll be a good match for the company culture (and vice versa – if it’ll match your expectations).
What if the job advert you have doesn’t provide enough information?
Search on other popular recruitment platforms for the job advert. The missing link is out there somewhere – you just need to find it.
Another option, in this case, will be to reach out to recruiters on LinkedIn – ask them just a few questions about the desired, specific skill set.
Match your skill set with the company’s ideal profile
The ugly truth is that when every single company is hiring, they have an ideal candidate profile in mind. They might make a couple of compromises for an “out of the blue” Cinderella, but…
… practice goes to show that skill alignment is no fairy tale.
Here’s where you have to learn to read between the lines of the advert.
Not just because you have to consider the technical capabilities as described, but also because you have to look deeper into the tone of voice, soft skills, and preferred culture.
Aim to synthesize this information for yourself, so you can better understand what is it that the company needs from the specific candidate:
Whose shoes do I need to fill and how?
A climb up the beanstalk – how do I bring the fairy tale vision to life?
A nod to the future – what would my potential be in the job?
Ultimately, your application shouldn’t be set to just fill in a tangible (or not) vacancy but it should answer your and the company’s expectations.
Here’s an example with a job description for a UX Copywriter. We’ve highlighted the hard skills in green, while the soft skills are in blue. This exercise should help you better understand the preferable skill set of the ideal candidate.
Responsibilities
Collaborate with Product Managers, UX Designers, UX Program Managers, and other key stakeholders to develop online device setup instructions and engagement pieces.
Maintain brand voice and alignment with packaging through copyediting.
Create and maintain editorial style guides and master copy documents.
Ensure the highest standards of style and writing (e.g., grammar, spelling, syntax, diction, punctuation, brand alignment).
Help improve processes for how content is created, delivered, and maintained.
Proofread all final documents before print.
Work closely with the subject matter experts, advocating for product and documentation innovation on behalf of the customer.
Pursue automated content development.
Create and maintain standards/guidance for localized translations.
Basic Qualifications
3 years of design experience.
An available online portfolio.
Degree in English, Technical Writing.
Experience in writing and editing technical documentation.
Preferred Qualifications
Strong written and verbal communications skills.
Ability to earn trust, engage, and influence people and teams at every level in the organization.
Experience with content management systems and project management tools.
Demonstrated ability to work in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.
Want to make your resume stand out even further? Always match each skill with precise role accomplishments.
This would give social proof that you’re adept at the skill and that your application is as close to the ideal candidate profile as it can be.

Use the STAR methodology to talk about your skills and experiences
The STAR method is one of the recruiters’ favorite tools during behavioral-based interviews.
The acronym stands for Situation, Task, Action, and Result(s).
Apart from the interview stage, you can also use the S-T-A-R methodology to describe specific achievements which really stand out.
Follow these four steps to get writing with the STAR method:
Situation or setting the stage: what was the problem you faced, or what were you trying to achieve?
Task or specifics: what were you expected to achieve?
Action: what was your individual role in the task at hand? What steps did you follow? How did your particular skill set help at this stage?
Results or final outcomes: highlight precisely what “fruit” did your efforts bring in? BONUS: if you can add numbers and data to the results stage, then this will make quite an impression on recruiters.
Here are six more reasons why recruiters are huge fans of the STAR method.
These types of responses:
follow a specific structure;
demonstrate the relevant skills;
make your abilities more understandable and clear;
showcase an achievements-focused mindset;
show how you’d handle similar situations.
The STAR method also brushes up on your reflection skills – as any professional should be able to look back on their work and highlight what worked.
So, even when writing your resume, it’s helpful to think about various situations or projects where you can apply the STAR method.
The outcome should be strong, evidence-based answers that highlight your suitability for the position. Check out this example:
Situation: a DevOps engineer for a finance website
Task: eliminate poor website performance during peak hours (stock opening hours)
Activity: migrated the existing website’s database to a more optimal noSQL solution
Result: reduced complaints rate to 3% and 100% website uptime during peak visit hours
Communicate your skills proficiency
Which one sounds more professional to you, when listing your language skills – “French C2” or “French”?
Adding your level of proficiency helps employers better understand just how good you are at using that particular skill.
Five reasons why listing your skill proficiency is important:
Your aptitude level will help match further the requirements, as listed in the job description. Thus, recruiters will be able to make an accurate assessment of your profile.
Indicating your proficiency in the most relevant skills also helps to build up your profile to be as close as possible to recruiters’ checklists.
You’d stand out from candidates, who have just listed “Photoshop” and “In Design” skills, instead of qualifying them.
Showcase your confidence in your abilities. Especially for languages – having a relevant level/ certification adds credibility.
Building trust with the organization from the get-go with transparency and honesty about your unique skill set.
But how can you – all by yourself – evaluate your skill set proficiency?
A popular framework that’s used is the National Institutes of Health one; here’s how it classifies the different experience levels:
Beginner – you have a fundamental understanding of the skill and thus can perform simple tasks. Your experience with this skill has been gained during school/ university or during a traineeship. While you may need some help from more experienced professionals, you’re eager to grow your basic skill set.
Intermediate – you have a solid foundation of the core principles of the skill and can perform moderately complex tasks. You have some practical expertise and have confidence that you’ll succeed, using this particular skill. You can use the skill independently with minimal guidance from senior-level colleagues. Furthermore, you have also attained transferrable skills that can be applied to other sectors. For example, your ability to use Excel to systematize data has taught you patience and organization skills.
Advanced – with extensive knowledge of the skill, you’ve attained a high level of mastery. As you have plenty of years of experience in learning, practicing, and improving this skill. This on the other hand has helped you attain various soft skills (e.g. efficiency, creativity, innovative problem-solving). What’s most important is that you’ve attained the ability to mentor and lead others in perfecting this skill. Advanced skills can also be highlighted via awards and certificates through your resume.
Expert – with unparalleled knowledge that surpasses that of most professionals, you’re recognized as a thought leader in the industry. With experience that spans years (or decades) on end, you’ve mastered various challenges and situations to always achieve an outcome. You’re able to mentor others to achieve even higher peaks in their skill set.
There are many ways to map your skill proficiency. Our practice has shown us that some of the best ways include visual level bars and charts, used in more creative resumes, and simple labels, used in most modern resumes.
Make a separate resume skills section
A separate skills section serves to improve your score with the ATS – and also helps recruiters understand whether you have the expertise they’re searching for.
First, consider the skills that are listed closer to the top of the advert. Those will be most vital for the role.
Next, reflect upon your skill strengths – those should also be listed within the dedicated skills section with more prominence.
Don’t forget about including a couple of soft skills – this will help you align your profile even further with the ATS.
If you want to take this activity a step further, create a separate, niche skills section. One that could list, for example, your technology proficiency or specific soft skills.
STRENGTHS
Management
Provided training and support for a team of five entry-level accountants
Decision making
Updated a stale 5-year-old company process which resulted in 50% increase in weekly jobs done by team.
Collaboration
Initiated and led communication between accounting and sales in order to improve processes between departments
RIGHT
Back up your skills in other sections of your resume
The more you can integrate skill keywords within your whole resume, the better you’d meet recruiters’ requirements. Here are five other sections that could include your skill set.
List accomplishments and skills in the experience section of your resume
Your experience bullets are the perfect opportunity to provide recruiters with some proof of your skill capabilities.
By quantifying your expertise with achievements (and possibly data), you’ll provide them with the necessary background to better understand your skill set.
pro tip icon
Pro tip
Here’s our favorite formula for listing each experience item: Action verb + skill + result (with numbers)
The more impressive your achievements were, the closer they should be to the top of your list (under each experience item).
Also, do consider what the requirements are for the job and use those to qualify your experience and skill set.
For example, if the role requires you to be able to apt in community management, your resume could list that you:
“Implemented communication strategies to attain a feeling of closeness amongst community members to attain a 107% growth and 65% more structured community management”
Let’s take a look at a well-structured experience section that communicates the relevant skills of the applicant.
EXPERIENCE
Senior Accounting Specialist
Soft Ltd.
Present
Los Angeles, CA
Significantly reduced past due receivables from $7M to $5M within four months, accelerating cash flow
Reduced company costs 50% through centralized purchasing
Trained and supervised more than 4 summer interns each for a period of 3 weeks
RIGHT
Write a summary of qualifications
Going back to the top one-third of your resume, we have the summary and headline.
The resume summary – those brief three-to-five sentences – is the best chance you’d get to integrate your skills.
Once again, go back to the advert at hand and select up to five skills that you feel most confident in (that are important for the job). Use those to structure your resume summary.
Here’s an example from our practice:
SUMMARY
A CPA with 8 years experience at Ernst & Young conducting preparation for federal tax audits, and corporate tax work. Reported directly to our CFO and received departmental awards for innovation and ability to lead and motivate teams.
RIGHT
With your resume headline, you could also make a lasting impression.
Even though it should be short and simple, while matching the job requirements, the headline could integrate one-to-three skills.
Both of these sections provide you with an opportunity to further “stuff” your resume with skill keywords. But you don’t want to go over the top with that.
Use the limited space you have wisely to demonstrate your highlights, achievements, and unique skill set.
Use certifications and courses
The hidden gem of the certifications and courses resume sections is that they allow you to further expand on your skill set. They are also a must in certain industries, such as cybersecurity.
Including a certification section on your resume will:
hint at your skill proficiency,
support your experience,
showcase your professional recognition.
CERTIFICATION
Certified Scrum Product Owner
SCRUM Alliance
Agile Certified Practitioner
Project Management Institute (PMI)
Project Management Professional (PMP)
Project Management Institute (PMI)
RIGHT
A courses section is recommended for entry-level roles, where certifications (or more experience) are yet to be attained.
The courses could once again highlight the skills you’ve learned via your education or in your free time.
Showcase your transferable skills if you’re switching between career fields
Transferrable skills are universal skills you can easily apply from one role or responsibility to another.
They are basically what makes your experience unique and show that you can thrive within any work environment.
150+ Must-Have Skills (for Every Field)

Soft resume skills
Including this category of skills within your resume showcases the transferable skills and unique value you’d bring about as an applicant.
Soft skills are a bit more difficult to quantify, so always think about relevant career highlights that could demonstrate your capabilities in practice. For example, if you’ve been in a leadership role, think about the projects you’ve managed – their scope and final outcomes. Make sure to showcase your soft skills by demonstrating your quantifiable (or tangible) achievements.

HOW TO LIST HOSPITALITY SKILLS ON YOUR RESUME
Key Takeaways
Well-written resumes integrate an array of both hard and soft skills that are relevant to the job advert and candidates’ experience level.
The first step to deciding which skills you should be including is to assess the job advert and discover the most important skills for the role. Then, you need to align those with your professional capabilities.
Don’t directly copy-paste the skills from the job advert, but consider which ones shine the best light on you as a professional.
Recruiters are looking for more than just a dull list of skills – they’d rather see how you’re able to succeed in using those via tangible outcomes (numbers, percentages, results).
Make sure you’re using all the space your resume has to offer to qualify your unique skill set and showcase what values your abilities would bring to the specific role, team, or organization.
Frequently Asked Questions About Resume Skills
What are the top skills to list on your resume?
There are no “top” skills, but rather ones that answer two-part criteria.
The first is the job requirements, and the second – is your capability and practical knowledge of using particular skills.
Now, both criteria could be met by both:
hard (or technical) skills – ones that have more to do with the technologies and field-specific knowledge;
soft skills – transferrable, personal traits that showcase the unique value of working with you as a professional.
How many skills should I list on my resume?
It’s not a question of how many, but rather which skills showcase you as the best fit for the role and also prove your unique expertise and knowledge.
Asses what are the key skills for the job advert (select between five and ten) and align those with the five to ten skills you’re best at.
Remember to strike a balance between hard and soft skills, and to make use of every section of your resume to demonstrate your achievements.
Can I list soft skills on my resume?
Of course – soft skills are hints of how you’d adapt and grow within new work dynamics and environments.
Soft skills support your experience and tell a further narrative: that you’ve grown up both as a professional and a person.
They make a fantastic first impression on more experienced recruiters who are on the lookout for more than just the check-box-fitting candidate.
Should I tailor my skills to the job description?
This is perhaps the best strategy out there for creating your professional resume. First, take notice of what skills are important to the role, recruiters, and subsequently the organization.
If from the get-go you take the time to target your skills section to the advert at hand, this would go to show that you’re ready to take the next steps and subsequently – are more than prepared for the role.
As you know, the whole job application process is one of meeting expectations and aligning visions.
How do I showcase my skills on my resume?
Make use of all the resume space (or real estate) you have to highlight your versatile skill set.
What this means is that you shouldn’t just limit this to a dedicated skills section. You could also talk about these capacities within your resume:
header and summary
experience
projects
courses
niche/specific skills section.
It’s entirely up to you to choose which sections of your resume would best fit your skill set.
When talking about your hard and soft skills, remember to also quantify your achievements.
Instead of saying you’re apt at using “AutoCAD”, note that you’ve “created 65+ full building plans in AutoCAD that have helped make the design 35% more understandable and efficient for contractors”.
You could also use the STAR methodology (situation, task, action, result), when talking about your skills.
Can I include skills I learned outside of work?
If those skills are relevant to the job you’re applying for and fully support your application, there isn’t a reason why you shouldn’t include them.
For example, you could further build your education, certifications, or hobbies section to detail those specific skills.
Test labs that you’ve done in your free time or side-projects that have taught you a specific skill could also work in showcasing your capabilities.
