“Hiring managers are prioritizing soft skills in a way they never have before”said Andrew McCaskill, careers expert at LinkedIn.
According to the specialist, companies “are recognizing that this new world of remote and hybrid work requires people who can adapt and are eager to learn.”
McCaskill and Monster racing expert Vicki Salemi told CNBC Make It, what they are Three Skills Job Seekers Need in 2022:
Know how to build trust
Trustworthy employees are a great asset to businesses, especially when people are changing jobs at record rates amid a tight job market.
For McCaskill, reliability is a “key skill” that employers expect from their teams and an important attribute to highlight on a resume.
To emphasize that the applicant is trustworthy, it is important to highlight the importance of meet deadlines, respond to requests in a timely manner, and raise your hand for new project assignments.
Communicative skills
