Key signatures are the sharps or flats at the beginning of the staff. To identify the key signature of a scale that consists of all sharps, look at the last sharp in the key signature. Whichever note the last sharp lies on, the key of the scale is one note above it.

The second-to-last note is the name of the key signature of flat keys. However, you cannot use this helpful trick with the F Major Scale which only has one flat (B flat).
That is the signature for the key of Db. Or, it's relative minor, Bb minor.
When working with flats, the second to last flat is the key signature. The exception here being when only one flat is in the key signature - this would be the key of 'F.' The order of flats are as follows: B-flat, E-flat, A-flat, D-flat, G-flat... etc.
There is no key signature that has Bb and C#.
