So now the parts remain about the references and the Skills. References you can either put like available on request or you can skip it altogether but don’t write anybody’s name or title or company name. Their application will specify the references request. Just also make sure that the person you are referencing knows about it in advance so that he can give you a good recommendation, otherwise a surprise call can either make your reference person resentful or just cause him or her to give you a bad recommendation.
About skills, just write about any system you have worked on and which you are comfortable with. You can also write any language skills that you have. But try to skip the hobbies part since it is not necessarily part of your resume.
Since most of the resumes are now being scanned by machines, try to put as much key words relevant to your industry in it so it can be scanned accordingly and accurately instead of floating around in several departments. Computer savvy has now become the buzz word and the employers are now looking at the social media sites for anything which they can find, so try to be as discreet as possible posting anything which may jeopardize your chances of employment now or in the future. If you don’t want to embarrass yourself, try to steer clear of every thing which may be construed as unethical or unprofessional because it can catch you when you least want it to be.
