<\/a>\nTech is one of the fastest growing industries in the world, and Silicon Valley is at the center of it all. At Capstone Resume Services, our office is located near the heart of Silicon Valley, meaning we have years of experience working with professionals in tech. We understand the hiring trends and skills hiring managers are looking for and we can help implement them in your resume, executive biography, and LinkedIn profile to ensure you land your dream job.<\/p>\n
When thinking about your tech skills, start with software. Hiring managers on LinkedIn, as well as applicant tracking software for resumes, will be looking for the software and programs you\u2019re experienced in. Be sure to include all relevant software you\u2019ve used and get specific about the programs you\u2019ve developed. If you aren\u2019t sure which skills to include, take a look at the job description and pick out keywords or skills you see mentioned. Make sure each of the ones you possess are highlighted in the skills section of your resume.<\/p>\n
For LinkedIn, ask former colleagues to endorse you for your top tech skills. But, make sure they are skills you actually possess. For tech specifically, skills are important when a recruiter who doesn\u2019t know much about tech is scanning profiles. If they know they need to hire someone with Java experience, they\u2019ll look for that listed under skills on your LinkedIn profile.<\/p>\n
