Employability Skills
Employability skills is an umbrella term for a set of highly desirable, transferable skills that turn you into a very attractive candidate or employee. They can be defined as a set of skills employers want from a potential employee.
Information use
It’s an employability skill in its own right.
In the 21st century information is the new currency.
Sometimes a single piece of data can become a make or break factor for an entire organization.
So—
It’s pretty clear employes look for people who can:
- find the right information in any medium
- organize it in a meaningful way
- analyze it and draw conclusions
- communicate it to others
Remember:
Being able to use information has a very broad spectrum of meanings. It can refer to locating a single piece of essential data.
