Conveying your skills whether those are hard or soft skills is done most effectively through storytelling and giving specific, genuine examples of how it’s an asset. For example, if you used your communication skills to create better synergy between you and your boss, and did that by creating a regular check in, or a new communication process, that’s the story you want to tell. Make sure to include the results of your efforts (improved deadlines, less mistakes, etc) in your story. Talking about your skills is great. Talking about your skills in the context of how it led to better results is better.

Just lie. No one will figure out the difference. Just look at their adverts, websites and shareholder reports if you need to learn how.

Start by demonstrating adaptability—share specific examples of how you've successfully navigated change or unexpected situations in your previous roles.

Your non-verbal cues, like nodding or smiling, can reinforce your engagement. Finally, show empathy by relating personal anecdotes that illustrate your ability to understand and respond to others' needs. This not only humanizes you but also highlights your emotional intelligence
