The CV is usually the heart of the application. It is therefore all the more important that all relevant skills are included, with computer skills in particular being particularly welcome. But how do you best present these and how do you effectively integrate AI knowledge?
Computer skills are valued by employers
A resume aims to paint a succinct picture of an applicant’s skills and knowledge. Specific knowledge, such as language skills, is indispensable. Computer skills are also valued by employers. The term “computer skills”, where EDV stands for “electronic data processing”, includes the skills and knowledge required for the efficient use of computers and software applications. This includes dealing with operating systems, word processing programs, spreadsheet software, presentation programs, database management systems and various communication tools. As an alternative name for computer skills, the term IT skills can also be used in the CV.
Separate category including skill levels
The Stepstone career platform recommends creating a separate category for computer skills in your CV and dividing it into different skill levels such as basic, advanced and excellent. It is also recommended to put applications that are particularly relevant to the specific position you are applying for at the beginning.
For example, mastery of Microsoft Office including PowerPoint, Excel and Word are considered essential basic computer skills for employers. Basic knowledge of operating computer operating systems is also required. As a result of the increasing trend towards working from home, online collaboration tools such as Microsoft Teams or Slack are also becoming more important. Although many other programs may be of interest to employers, their relevance varies greatly depending on the industry in which one wants to work.
Declare your AI skills correctly in your CV
As technological progress in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) continues, AI knowledge is becoming increasingly important when applying. Manuel Huhmann, an expert in human resources, warns in an article for Business Insider that many employees are not sufficiently concerned with AI and therefore risk falling behind. He emphasizes the need for a “targeted engagement with this technology.”
It is therefore also important for applicants to correctly state AI knowledge in their CV. According to the career platform Indeed, it can be helpful as a first step to identify your own skills and competencies related to AI. A summary at the end of the resume that briefly and succinctly presents AI skills can give the reader a quick overview of key skills, according to Indeed. A detailed list of relevant skills, supported by clear descriptions of work experience and highlighting measurable achievements, could further strengthen the presentation of AI skills on the CV. To do this, applicants could link to quantifiable examples such as personal portfolios, code samples, technical documentation, or other examples to give a better idea of their skills.
