The Soft Skills That All Hiring Managers Are Looking For
#1 You look for innovative solutions
It’s an oft thrown-around (распространен повсюду) term, but true outside-the-box (нестандартное) thinking is a skill in itself: the ability to not be hemmed in (скованный) by previous thought patterns, but instead have a willingness to look beyond. A new report from LinkedIn lists creativity as the number one soft skill companies need most in 2020; a World Economic Forum report lists it as number three for 2020. The most creative workers deliberately forgo (намеренно отказываются от) traditional notions in favor of looking at alternate options. You can also use “divergent thinking” (дивергентное мышление), which is basically brainstorming many different ideas in a short period of time. A divergent thinker is always looking for more possibilities, which employers can use to problem-solve existing issues and take their company in new directions. This is the key to being a more creative person.
