QUESTION:
I was looking through your section about filling a resume and it was very helpful except for one thing. What if I don’t have any special skills?
ANSWER:
If you really believe you have no special skills, you don’t have to have a special skills section on your acting resume. As long as you have your acting experience and training listed, your resume will look professional.
Special skills are an opportunity to add a little personality to your resume, though, and almost everyone has some special skill, whether it’s a sport you play well or an accent you do well.
