Build content for your resume by creating specific examples of your abilities. The skills worksheet below lists a range of skills and attributes regarded very highly by employers.

• skill worksheet (2 MB)
  • identify the top four skills for the positions you will apply for
  • brainstorm examples which will show your ability with those skills and attributes
  • prioritise which examples to include in your resume

Tip: Once a week add examples of other skill areas to your worksheet to create a 'bank' of examples for future job applications.
