ResumeXRays guidance
BEE · How to show it

If it is central to the job, be specific. "Structured query language SQL" alone matches only the keyword. Name what you did with it: the features you used, the outputs you produced, the scale you worked at.

Pair it with the role. Structured query language SQL appears on 151 occupation guides, so it is a real differentiator. Put it beside the responsibilities it supported, not only in a skills list.
