How to use them
- Use the posting's exact wording. If it says a term one way, write it that way at least once.
- Use the posting's spelling: "Kubernetes", not only "k8s"; "Amazon Web Services (AWS)" the first time
- Name the framework, not just the language: "React" and "Next.js", not only "JavaScript"
- Put each skill in the bullet where you used it, and again in the Skills section
- Only list what is true for you. A keyword you can't back up in an interview costs more than it gains.
