When preparing your LinkedIn profile, make sure to include a list of your technical skills, then endorse skills of your connections and/or ask others for endorsements*.

Here’s a list of some skills you could add to your LinkedIn skills (or, if they are framework-specific, find an equivalent in your language). This is not an exhaustive list — just a stub and written from the perspective of folks with Rails/JS background to give you an idea. Add whatever methodology or language you've used!

only if you have space — apparently no recruiter would be looking for soft skills
