While academic qualifications are important, soft skills are also necessary for career success and advancement. Soft skills include interpersonal skills, communication skills, teamwork, attitude, self-motivation, time management, and selling skills. These personal traits enhance career prospects, productivity, and personal and professional achievement. It is important to develop strong soft skills through self-evaluation and feedback to identify strengths and weaknesses, and continuously work on improving areas of weakness. With focus and effort, soft skills can be learned and strengthened to support career goals.
