Tell me the difference between soft and hard skills?

Submitted by: Administrator

During the job application and interview process, employers look for applicants with two skill sets: hard skills and soft skills.
Hard skills are teachable abilities or skill sets that are easy to quantify.
☛ Examples of hard skills include:
☛ Proficiency in a foreign language
☛ A degree or certificate
☛ Typing speed
☛ Machine operation
☛ Computer programming
These hard skills are often listed in your cover letter and on your resume and are easy for an employer or recruiter to recognize.
Soft skills are subjective skills that are much harder to quantify. Also known as "people skills" or "interpersonal skills" soft skills relate to the way you relate to and interact with other people.
Examples of soft skills include:
☛ Teamwork
☛ Communication
☛ Flexibility
☛ Patience
☛ Persuasion
☛ Time Management
☛ Motivation
