Host: How can I identify the key skills needed for the jobs I am interested in when writing a resume?

Louise Kursmark: One of the best ways is to just look at job postings for jobs that are your ideal job. You will see repeated over and over again, certain terms for education, for experience, for knowledge and skills, so what the expectations for the position are? Those are the terms that you want to incorporate into your resume writing so that you come up as a perfect match for your dream job.
