Modern trends in employability skills focus on soft skills that allow employees to function effectively in the workplace. These include self-starter skills, teamwork, communication, a positive attitude, numeracy, IT literacy, business and customer awareness, problem solving with creativity, negotiation skills, and learning adaptability. Modern employers look for these employability skills when making recruitment decisions as they ensure employees can be effective, act with initiative, manage their time well, and work independently or as part of a team. Personal marketing is also important, making it easier for employers to hire applicants who properly demonstrate their employability skills and value.
