How does this part of my resume look? - The Ninth Answer - 01-31-2013 08:11 PM
I'm applying for an on-campus job as an office assistant. I wanted to include a "Skills" category for my resume, so here it is:
•Excellent verbal and written communication skills
•Proficient in Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Adobe Photoshop
•Experienced keyboard typer (95 words per minute)
•Proficient in social media platforms such as Twitter, Tumblr, Facebook, and Flickr
•Able to follow instructions carefully and carry out orders dutifully
What modifications do you suggest? Anything I should add or take out? Is it alright for me to use the word "excellent" when describing my communications skills? Thank you for your advice.

The word excellent is fine. You have a wonderful résumé for the job. The only other thing that you might want to add, is to some how show you are very organized. Employers LOVE organized people.
