I have many skills and I do not want to display all of them in my resume otherwise it will span over multiple pages. Is there a way I can have some sort of a database that my resume can read from to only show the skills relevant to the job description, I’m applying for?
I do not think you need a base or a database.
Look in Writer in the menu Extras>AutoText....
I myself have not worked with it yet.
But I think it can be your workflow.

With me Windows 10 Home; Version 1909; 64-Bit | LibreOffice, Version: 6.3.3.2 (x64).
I tried your suggestion. It’s not really what I’m looking for.
