Career Development Manual Index Skill is defined as the ability to do something well, especially as a result of experience.
Most skills are transferable to other work settings and can be grouped in many ways.
One way is to show functional skills of working with people, data or information, and things or objects. Another way is to look at intellectual, aptitudinal, creative, leadership and problem-solving skills. Employers are interested in knowing which skills you can bring to their organization. Examine your jobs, both paid and unpaid, as well as your academic and personal activities to determine your skills. You also may wish to review the skills as action verbs in the Resume Writing section.
