key skills

[windycity8]

on a CV, do key skills need to incorporate personal characteristics or should they incorporate points that are in the job spec?

key skills are IMO objective things...use of database, literacy, numeracy, etcet. Yes the job spec points. They can be things like dealing with the public, advocacy skills etcet if they are relevant, but should not me things like puctuality. positive attitude and the more character based stuff.
