A skill is only useful if you can use it.
If you list a skill on your professional profile, be ready to discuss it, demonstrate it, or perform it under reasonable direction.
Be specific about your level of experience. “Plays guitar” is different from “advanced guitarist.” “Sports” is not as useful as naming the sport and your actual ability. The same applies to languages, trades, technology, dance, cooking, teaching, and other real-world skills.
Accurate details help an agency understand what you may bring to a project. Do not exaggerate. Your profile should represent what you can genuinely do today.
Review your skills list and remove anything you could not confidently demonstrate.
