[QUOTE="Amma Usman, post: 185168, member: 36740"] Hey [USER=37426]@tarty23[/USER], @Jessica Booker would have more thoughts on this, but generally I recommend mentioning the skills gained with demonstrated interest - however, this will be dependent on the firms policy as some firms set strict limits of about 50 words per experience. This means you’ll need to focus on responsibilities at the expense of skills and other extra points. You would otherwise cover them in the cover letter/application questions anyway, so nothing to worry about. There’s also a way to cover a skill without explicitly stating it, whilst describing your experience. [B][I]For example,[/I][/B] “collaborated on a group project aimed at retaining young talent in banking”, naturally shows good teamwork. [/QUOTE]
