Should I mention those? I've always viewed that in the same vein as bragging about wpm in MS Word or something --- nearly everyone applying is good enough, and the rest can learn, so why waste precious page space on that over other more important information?
- chunkyks 5y agoYes. The job says "requires git", the first person filtering resumes doesn't know that if you've been working on software for ten years the of course you know git. Also, not everyone knows git, or Linux. If you're applying for a job that says you need experience with word, the put word on there
