Open science contributes to more rigorous and impactful science. However, little attention is often paid to the benefits that it provides to its users, such as project management and programming skills. Although not its primary objective, these skills may be considered additional benefits supporting the transition to open science practices. Drawing from international perspectives, this chapter will discuss skills that students develop explicitly or implicitly by engaging in open science and their benefits to careers within and outside of academia. It will also showcase examples of how engagement in open science is considered in (academic) hiring decisions, including ongoing debates and areas for (structural) improvement. Ultimately, this chapter will inform educators about the most important open science skills and provide insights into how to strategically build a resume to present open science-related skills convincingly to improve employability, including practical tips and resources.
