Screening for Soft Skills
Introduction
By definition, soft skills are the behavioral attributes which
characterize an individual’s interactions with other people. They
account for 25% of the skills required to successfully perform in
a role, and are directly correlated to career performance and
advancement (source).
While 77% of recruiters agree that soft skills are just as important as
hard skills (source), 60% report challenges in assessing candidates
for these behavioral attributes (source). Why? Unlike hard skills
which can easily be tested or measured, soft skills can’t be taught
and are difficult to quantify.
