How to find keywords to use in your résumé
Write your résumé first. Then, for each job application, update the words on your résumé to incorporate the keywords that match the job description.
Candidates can find keywords in three places:
- Within the job listing, especially in the “qualifications” and “responsibilities” sections.
- On employees’ LinkedIn profiles: Notice how employees in a similar position at that company talk about their skills and responsibilities.
- On the company’s website: see how they talk on their about page to see how you can speak to them in their words.
