Currently, companies use tracking systems in initially scan applicants' skills in their resumes. These skills should be tailored and highlighted based on the job description and must include relevant and proper keywords. Otherwise, there is a great chance they will not cut the interview.
However, since every job is different, there is no specific set of keywords to include in your CV. Here are some tips on what to write on your resume and skills to highlight when applying for IT jobs.
Where to add these skills in your CV?
You may choose to add these skills in the "Areas of Expertise" or "Professional Experience" sections, although other people name this section as "Technical Skills," "Key Skills," or "Areas of Excellence." Regardless, what you call it, what matters are the skills you include in the list.
Hiring managers or tracking systems can quickly screen your CV by merely looking for a specific skill set. The best thing to do is to understand each job description and highlight specific skills or keywords indicated in the job description. By just tweaking your CV a bit, you will indeed have more IT interviews scheduled.
