‘Soft Skills’ is a term we know many college and university professors/councilors are using because they are being told by employers that new grads lack them and its creating an issue in the hiring process (regardless of the position, it seems to be universal). A gap exists between school and industry, and if these ‘soft skills’ are stopping you from getting hired, that’s a problem.
