Adding them, how suggestions work, and where they show up.

## Adding skills

In [Edit profile](/profile/edit), start typing a skill and pick from the taxonomy — nearly 7,000 real skills. As you add skills, the picker suggests related ones (people who know Kubernetes often also list Docker).

Skills matter beyond your profile: job listings show a **match percentage** based on skill overlap, and recruiters searching for candidates filter by skills you've listed.

## Hobbies

Hobbies are first-class here — this is a network for whole people, not just job titles. Add them the same way; there are about 3,000 to choose from.

## Where they appear

Every skill and hobby links to its own public hub page (like [Skills](/skills) and [Hobbies](/hobbies)) showing who else shares it — a genuinely good way to find your people.
