[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do, and I'm wondering whether to include it as a skill on my resume. I already have the Microsoft Office Suite listed, and Sharepoint is part of that, so maybe it's redundant.

My office also uses Workfront and I'm pretty proficient at it. Is that something for the resume? Not sure how widespread it is.[/quote]

If I were reading a resume, I would assume that "Microsoft Office Suite", I would assume that means a person is a proficient user of Word, Excel, Powerpoint.  Sharepoint, although technically part of Office, is not always known by people who list "Office suite" (see OP, for example), so I think it's worth calling out if you are proficient and think it'll matter in the job you're applying for.

I would also assume that someone who just lists Office Suite has a good working knowledge of all Office products, but is not an expert in any particular one, as I think it's pretty rare for people to be true experts in all of them.  So if I need someone who really knows everything there is to know about Excel, including building VBA macros and advanced pivot table applications, I would go with someone who specifically calls out Excel over someone who just lists Office suite.

If I were writing my own resume, I'd probably try to say something like proficient in Microsoft Office, with advanced Excel skills.[/quote]
