When hiring, soft skills can demonstrate a candidate's ability to be a positive presence in the workplace beyond the official job description. Soft skills are notoriously hard to test for on paper and even though there are online assessments available for vetting applicants, the real test is usually in person. As an HR professional, you play an important role in helping your organization run smoothly, so you understand how essential those soft skills can be, down to a case-by-case basis.

?? **The Role of Soft Skills in Hiring** ?? At Achyutam International, we know that technical abilities are only part of the equation. Soft skills—those intangible qualities like communication, teamwork, and adaptability—play a crucial role in a successful hire. Consider this scenario: **HR:** Can you describe a time when you worked in a team to solve a problem? **Candidate:** Sure, in my last project, we faced a major setback. Through clear communication and collaborative effort, we managed to turn things around and deliver on time. **HR:** Impressive! How do you handle unexpected changes or challenges? **Candidate:** I stay calm and try to assess the situation quickly. Flexibility is key, and I find solutions that align with the project’s goals. **HR:** Excellent, these qualities are vital for our team’s success. This example demonstrates the importance of evaluating soft skills during the hiring process. Here are a few key soft skills to consider: - **Communication:** Ensuring clear and effective exchange of information. - **Teamwork:** The ability to work well with others towards a common goal. - **Adaptability:** Being flexible and open to new ideas and changes. - **Problem-Solving:** Finding solutions in challenging situations. - **Time Management:** Effectively managing one’s time to maximize productivity.

??????????'?? ?????????????? ???????? ?????????? ?????????? ???????????? In talent acquisition, we often debate the importance of technical skills vs. "soft" skills. But here's a thought: maybe it's time to stop calling them "soft." From my perspective as a hiring manager, these are essential skills every top performer needs. They aren't optional; they're crucial. Skills like proactivity, honesty, and adaptability aren't just nice-to-haves; they are the foundation of success in any role. For example, being proactive means starting tasks before being asked and updating before deadlines, which keeps projects on track and shows initiative. Honesty and transparency build trust, especially when delivering bad news. Adaptability helps navigate changes smoothly, an increasingly vital skill in today's fast-paced work environment. These essential skills make you not just a good employee but an outstanding one. Let’s reframe our thinking and recognize these as the indispensable, essential skills they truly are. What do you think? Are there any other essential skills you would add to this list? #TalentAcquisition #EssentialSkills #Hiring #ProfessionalDevelopment #EmotionalIntelligence #EQ #Hiring #SoftSkills
