3. Keep your skills section short.

A separate skills section is a great place to put keywords that don’t naturally fit under your experience section.

I recommend including at least nine key skills and grouping them into columns of three, spread evenly across the top of the resume.

We limit ourselves to nine skills total to avoid “keyword stuffing.” You also don’t want to look like “a jack-of-all-trades and master of none.”
