Question:
What soft skills do employers request when they list job openings in your field?
Your Task. Individually or in teams, check the listings at an online job board such as Monster, College Recruiter, CareerBuilder, or College Grad. Follow the instructions to search job categories and locations. Also check college resources and local newspaper listings of job openings. Find five or more listings in your field. Print or otherwise save the results of your search. Examine the skills requested. How often do the ads mention communication, teamwork, and computer skills? What tasks do the ads mention? Discuss your findings with your team members. Then prepare a list of the most frequently requested soft skills. Your instructor may ask you to submit your findings and/or report to the class. If you are not satisfied with the job selection at any job board, choose ads posted on websites of companies you admire or on LinkedIn.
