revealed by your past work experience/leadership opportunities

- Use this as space to personalize a little bit- make sure the skills you prioritize match up
with the brand of your organization (ie if youre applying to a government internship, stress your
research and analytical skills. If youre trying to freelance, social media presence and your
writing need to be front and center. For tech positions, list all of the languages you know and
your level of knowledge (Beginner, Proficient, Advanced)
