Skills for your resume, ranked by real demand

The right skills for a resume depend entirely on the role — so instead of one generic list, each page below ranks skills by how often employers actually request them in job postings, drawn from published hiring research (each page cites its source). Pick your role, get the exact list, then check your resume against it free.

The three rules that apply to every role

List skills twice — once in a Skills section for the ATS keyword match, once inside an experience bullet that proves it with an outcome.
Mirror the job description’s exact wording— ATS matching is literal, so use the posting’s name for the skill.
8–15 genuinely-held skills, grouped — padding dilutes the signal, and every listed skill is a potential interview question.

Does your resume already show the right skills?

Upload it and Resunova scores it against a real job description — found skills, missing skills, and a rewrite for each weak bullet. Free, no credit card.
