What are Transferable Skills, and What is Their Significance on a Resume?
Skills obtained through ANY of the experiences in your
life (including extracurricular activities, sports, and classroom
experience) that can transfer and apply to the kind of job you want
when you graduate.
Portraying your experiences in terms of transferable skills is
probably the MOST IMPORTANT aspect of your resume.
Most college students could do a much better job of portraying
their experiences in terms of transferable skills. Those who do so
successfully will be most likely to get interviews.
