  2. typing is important in many 몭elds – from journalism to data entry, transcription, or secretarial work, you will 몭nd that having a high WPM (words per minute) is a signi몭cant advantage. Here are examples of a few professions with their average required typing skills: Judicial or administrative assistant: 70WPM Medical Transcriptionist: 70WPM Receptionist or secretary: 65WPM Data Entry: 75WPM Court Reporter: 200+WPM (to reach these speeds, court reporters use special keyboards) Also Read: Does Online Training Work In the advanced technology-aided workplace we live in today, indicating your average typing speed might not be enough to make your resume stand out if you wish to mention it at all. In fact, for most vacancies and CV’s, we do not advise including or listing your typing skills, as this skill is such a commonly accepted skill in today’s world. That being said, typing skills are especially useful and needed in certain professions, such as administrators, medical assistants, data entry clerks, or typists. In those cases, you’ll de몭nitely want to indicate your wpm on resume. Adding some supporting skills to your typing speed in your resume will be helpful in these situations, too.

  3. Some examples of these would include being pro몭cient at rekeying documents easily, using shorthand, or if you’re good at typing detailed and accurate meeting minutes. Being adept at creating e몭cient and easy-to-understand spreadsheets and Powerpoint presentations, as well as proofreading and copywriting are also skills worth mentioning.  If you are still confused about how to include typing speed on resume or the other supporting stuff, read this article in full and you will get the answer.

Be clear about your objectives If you have promotion aspirations, feel free to say so, but don’t expand too much – the employer will ask you to expand if they are interested. 2. Stay clear of over-in몭ating Don’t overstate your attributes. You may become stuck if you do land the job, or you might be caught out in an interview scenario. 3. Be clear about the job you are looking for Avoid unnecessary add-ons and state your objective clearly and concisely. 4. Use bullet points Employers don’t want to read through long pages of text.

For example: As a personal assistant for the research faculty of a university, I frequently made use of my outstanding typing skills for rapid data entry of supported projects, grant awards, and 몭nancial terms. As you will note in my attached CV, I not only have exceptional words-per-minute typing skills, but also have exposure to transcribing dictation recordings, Skype-recorded meetings, and phone conferences. I’ve dealt with complex data capturing, memo creation, and professional communication for the executive suite.
