Top 20 Must-Have Skills to Put on Your Resume

Writing a good resume is a difficult balancing act. You have to keep your resume length short and sweet, but still include enough quality information to make an impression.

When reviewing your credentials, hiring managers will hold a particular interest in the skills you possess. This means it’s very important to know what is relevant to the job when thinking of skills to list on your resume. And though it goes without saying, we’ll say it just in case: any skills listed on your resume should be skills you truly possess. 

So how do you figure out the best skills to put on your resume? And what if you’re looking to find a remote job?

Serverless Computing vs. Cloud Computing: What’s the Difference?

Serverless computing shifts server provisioning and compute management away from developers, operations, or DevOps teams to a cloud provider. Servers will continue to be used; but unlike cloud computing, the resources will be allocated on-demand and billed on a pay-as-you-go basis.

Software Development & DevOps

The future of DevOps: 21 predictions for 2021

Now that DevOps has entered its second decade, the focus has expanded beyond product delivery. It's no longer just about dev and ops, but about removing the constraints between the business and its customers, with a focus on delivering not just new features and products, but also value.

The predictions  of DevOps professionals & industry luminaries center on a few key themes. As companies accelerate their digital transformations, culture, leadership, and team dynamics will continue to shift; security and DevSecOps will be more critical than ever; analytics, AI, and machine learning will continue to disrupt both Dev and Ops; and organizations will tightly focus on value and value stream management. Here are their predictions.

Artificial intelligence and Robotics

Trends Collection on Artificial Intelligence

This collection highlights the use of artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods to solve a diverse set of complex problems across a wide range of scientific disciplines. Over the past decade, the incredible growth of this highly interdisciplinary field has been driven by outstanding contributions from biologists, chemists, mathematicians, computer scientists, and more. The combination of such diverse disciplines, however, presents a challenge in the broad dissemination of key findings and capabilities. This interdisciplinary collection explores AI-based algorithms for the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of disease; discovery, synthesis, and optimization of molecules and materials; learning of both human and machine in cognitive and neural computation; and interpretation and understanding of large, multi-tiered data sets such as those in genomics and plant-stress phenotyping.
