The Case for Soft Skills in IT

Succeeding in today's competitive IT environment can be tough. There seem to be countless talented professionals vying for positions in the same company with similar backgrounds -- how and where can you differentiate yourself? You should be leveraging everything you can to stand out to employers, but the reality is when it comes to interviewing, soft skills are the key to receiving an offer letter. 

While it may be easier for hiring managers to measure and hire for hard-skills competencies like a particular technology or code language, it's more difficult to recognize and substantiate soft skills. In this SlideShare, Bamboo HR and SkillSurvey take on soft skills and how EQ can help both individuals and organizations to succeed. From recruiting to professional development, take a look at how a emphasis on soft skills can dramatically impact your career and company.
