 Step 2: Secoundly List down all the tools and applications that you’re familiar with. If you’re a graphic,Logo, Card, Banner designer, being an expert in Photoshop is a must. But if you’re a virtual assistant, knowing how to use Photoshop is a plus. The more applications you’re familiar with, the more plus points to getting job.

Step 3: Group your general skills (i.e.Web design, writing, SEO, organizing, etc) and write a short paragraph, 3 to 4 sentences for each general skill, and briefly discuss all related specific skills.
Example:
“I am a writer and I know the power of words, especially when it comes to writing SEO articles. I can produce more than 6 quality articles in a day and I can assure you that they will be original, unique and will pass copyscape. I have written articles for my blog or website”
“I am familiar with both on-page and off-page SEO techniques. With off-page, I can generate 100 links in a day, 10 from blog comments, 10 from forum posting etc”
Or
“I am familiar with both on-page and off-page SEO techniques. With off-page, I can generate links from blog comments, forum posting with on-page, I know how to optimize the tags to make your site SEO-friendly ”

Step 4: Arrange all the paragraphs in order of your proficiency, the top being the skill that you excel in most. For example, if you’re more of an SEO assistant, then put the SEO paragraph before the others.

Step 5: Read the resulting article and make sure that everything is clear, concise and well-written. Every paragraph must flow through to the next in a coherent manner. When you’re satisfied, use this in your oDesk profile. You may opt to add another paragraph at the bottom, describing your other qualities that will be useful at work or, a goal or objective, or anything that you think clients will find interesting about you.
