Technical Resume Tips
A technical resume should clearly show a candidate's technical skills. To achieve this, add the Technical Summary or Technical Expertise section to your resume. Further, break this section into sub-categories for a quick scan of your knowledge of programs and applications.
Fortunately, technical resumes have a very simple format. The key to writing an effective resume is to keep in mind the prospective hiring manager or human resources recruiter.
Technical/computer or other qualification should consist course content in brief, the duration, the institute and also the result. This section could also consist of the projects done including platform used (front-end and backend), which add a value to the resume. Also mention other qualifications like personality development, marketing diploma or research study.
