What are some examples of interpersonal skills that are valuable in today’s job market?
## The Human Touch: Why Soft Skills Are King in Today’s Job Market
**Interviewer:** Welcome back to the show! Today we’re diving into a fascinating trend in the job market: the rise of interpersonal skills. Joining us is Dr. Sarah Jones, a leading expert in workforce development. Dr. Jones, thanks for being here.
**Dr. Jones:** It’s a pleasure to be here.
**Interviewer:** So, Dr. Jones, we’re seeing more and more companies emphasizing soft skills during the hiring process. Why is this happening?
**Dr. Jones:** That’s right. It’s a significant shift. Companies are realizing that while technical skills are important, they can often be taught. What’s harder to train is the human element. As economist David Deming points out, interaction is complex and requires skills like collaboration, perspective-taking, and flexibility, which are difficult to automate [[1](https://www.gse.harvard.edu/ideas/usable-knowledge/17/10/interpersonal-skills-and-todays-job-market)].
**Interviewer:** Fascinating. So, essentially, robots are good at repetitive tasks, but when it comes to navigating the complexities of human relationships, human skills still reign supreme.
**Dr. Jones:** Exactly. In today’s fast-paced and ever-changing work environment, adaptability and the ability to work effectively in teams are crucial. Companies need employees who can communicate clearly, build strong relationships, solve problems creatively, and think critically. These are all examples of valuable interpersonal skills.
**Interviewer:** That makes a lot of sense. What advice would you give to job seekers looking to highlight their interpersonal skills?
**Dr. Jones:** It starts with being self-aware. Identify your strengths and weaknesses in areas like communication, teamwork, and problem-solving. Then, showcase these skills through your resume, cover letter, and interviews. Use concrete examples to demonstrate how you’ve successfully used these skills in previous roles. Networking and volunteering are also great ways to build and develop your interpersonal skills.
**Interviewer:** Excellent advice. Dr. Jones, thank you so much for sharing your insights with us today.
**Dr. Jones:** My pleasure.
