Add an existing or custom skill

  1. Type the skill into the search field. Select the matching skill from the list.

  2. If the skill is missing, use the Create option for the name you entered. Check the spelling before creating it so you do not add an accidental duplicate.

  3. Choose Save and confirm the skill appears on your profile.

Edit Skills dialog with the searchable skills dropdown open.

Use specific names for skills you can explain or demonstrate, such as a tool, programming language, or professional skill. The heart beside a selected skill marks a skill you would prefer to use in future roles; it is separate from whether the skill is listed on your profile.

Remove a skill

  1. Open Edit Skills.

  2. Choose the × beside the skill you want to remove.

  3. Choose Save and check your profile.

Removing a profile skill does not rewrite the content of PDF or Word files you uploaded. Review any separate resume versions that also mention it.
