4 tips for writing a successful data entry resume
Before you start writing, make sure you know how to write a resume in a way that best
emphasizes your strengths.

If you work in data entry, your job title might be data entry clerk or information processor.

These positions are typically easy to qualify for. Basic computer skills are often the only
requirement because you’ll mostly be transferring data from paper or other digital sources into
databases.

However, you still need an effective data entry clerk resume to stand out from the dozens of
other applicants applying for the same position.

Here are a few pointers for showcasing your computer and other skills on a resume for a data
entry role.

1. Add skills to your data entry resume

You need to display not just computer skills, but a range of hard and soft skills on your data
entry resume if you’re to impress hiring managers.

You pick up hard skills through training, education, or on the job. Because data entry clerks
spend most of their time on a computer, your hard skills need to include technical skills related to
using a computer for entering data. For example:

 Microsoft Excel
 Google Sheets
 Microsoft Access
 Apple Numbers
 Claris Filemaker Pro
 Data entry
 Typing proficiency
 Transcription skills
Tip
Name each piece of software you’ve mastered in your resume skills section to showcase your
expertise for employers.
If the job ad mentions a particular piece of data entry software, be sure to mention it in your
skills section. And you should also talk about what you’ve accomplished with such software in
your work experience section to further emphasize your expertise.

However, to prove you’re a person others want to work with, your soft skills are also important.
Soft skills are personality-based skills that evolve naturally throughout your lifetime and
professional career.

Here are some essential soft skills for a data entry clerk:

 Organizational skills
 Attention to detail
 Time management skills
 Adaptability
 Collaboration skills
Tip
If the job ad mentions you often need to work with others, mention your communication skills,
as well as your people skills to show that you interact effectively.
