CLIC: Inter-Communication: Soft Skills New
Description
Technical skills are a must-have, but a new skillset is emerging when it comes to finding the right candidate for employment. Those harder to teach and quantify skills, the so called soft or interpersonal skills, have become critical in the recruitment process of global companies and are tested at various stages of job applications.
In this workshop, you will reflect on:
- What are soft skills and why you need them?
- How do you know which ones you have?
- How can you demonstrate them to your future employers?
- How to develop them?
