Hey There 👋 

Happy Better Yourself Friday! 🎉 In this month of July, we will be diving into the critical distinction between soft skills and job-specific skills, and why both are essential for career success. Soft skills are interpersonal attributes like communication, teamwork, and adaptability. These skills are important as they help you work well with others and navigate the workplace smoothly. In terms of job specific skills these are technical abilities and knowledge specific to your industry, such as coding for IT professionals or financial analysis for accountants.

Job specific skills are essential for you to execute the required tasks that are detailed in the job description. 🌟Employers seek candidates who can perform the job and contribute positively to the work environment. This requires you to master both skills as it is important in the workplace. Soft skills enhance your ability to apply job-specific skills effectively, thus they work hand-in-hand. Next week we will be exploring the reasons why soft skills matter in the workplace! 🚀
