The leading “soft skills” interviewees need to demonstrate when going for a job include teamwork, willingness to learn – and a sense of humour.
A study of 1,000 adults, who are involved with hiring in their workplace, revealed more than three-quarters (77%) are on the lookout for much more than just technical attributes when someone sits down for an interview.
In fact, almost two-thirds (62%) have even hired someone who has demonstrated a raft of these soft skills – such as sincerity and respectfulness – over a better qualified candidate.
