List key skills

Add these skills to my profile skills list: Python, SQL, Data Visualization, Machine Learning. Order them so Python and SQL appear first, then Data Visualization, then Machine Learning. Endorsements matter, so set visibility so recruiters see the top four skills on my profile and save the changes.

Before I publish my skills list, make it easy for hiring managers to see my operational strengths. Move the hands-on skills—Python and SQL—to the top, group analytics-related skills together, and hide or de-emphasize generic items like 'Microsoft Office' that dilute the message. Flag any skill that looks junior or unverifiable for removal.

I added Python, SQL, and Machine Learning to my skills list, but during interviews recruiters ask me whether I’m expert, intermediate, or beginner. I don’t want to overstate and risk being tested, nor understate and miss opportunities. Should I edit my profile to indicate years of experience next to each skill, or wait and clarify during interviews? Which will reduce screening friction?

Every few months I keep adding new skills and my top skills rotate so hiring managers can’t tell what I actually do day-to-day. That costs me calls from recruiters outside my target role. What rule or small ritual should I follow so my top four skills consistently reflect the role I want, and I can prune the rest in under ten minutes?
