# Skills

Skills are a key filter used to match candidates with jobs, so make sure you have the most important ones listed.

Job postings will also list skills, so taking a look at the most common skills across various postings can help remind you about skills you may have forgotten to list. You can choose up to 15 skills to display on your profile, and an important thing to remember when picking them is to balance the scales between hard skills and soft skills. Your professional worth isn’t just about one or the other; it’s the synergy of both that truly defines your value.

<Note>
  Ensure that you list a balance of hard skills and soft skills – read our breakdown of them [**here**](http://www.picsume.ca/post/hard-skills-vs-soft-skills-how-to-display-them-both)
