What are soft skills and why are they important?

Soft skills are personal qualities or people skills that allow one to more effectively relate to others. Unlike hard skills, which are applied towards specific types of jobs, such as an Administrative Assistant or Receptionist, soft skills traditionally aren’t taught in adult education or career training programs. They are, however, considered just as, if not more, important than hard skills. Some soft skills include having a positive attitude, effective time management, the ability to work on a team and how well you communicate.
