  During the job application and interview process, employers look for applicants with two skill sets: hard skills and soft skills.

  在投职和面试的过程中,雇主通常会查看求职者的两种技能:硬技能与软技能。

  Hard skills are teachable abilities or skill sets that are easy to quantify. Examples of hard skills include:

  硬技能就是能够通过培训或可以容易量化的技能。硬技能包括下面这些:

  Proficiency in a foreign language

  熟练的外语能力

  A degree or certificate

  文凭或证书

  Typing speed

  打字速度

  Machine operation

  机器操作技能

  Computer programming

  计算机程序编写能力

  These hard skills are often listed in your cover letter and on your resume, and are easy for an employer or recruiter to recognize.

  通常这些硬技能都会在求职信或简历中,以便雇主辨识。

  Soft skills, on the other hand, are subjective skills that are much harder to quantify.

  而软技能,则是较难量化的主观性技能。

  Also known as "people skills" or "interpersonal skills," soft skills relate to the way you relate to and interact with other people. Examples of soft skills include:

  通常也被称作“人际技能”。软技能指的是你如何与别人相处和沟通的技能。软技能包括下面的:

  Teamwork

  团队合作

  Communication

  沟通

  Flexibility

  灵活性

  Patience

  耐心

  Time management

  时间管理

  Motivation

  动力

  Skills Employers Look For

  最受雇主青睐的技能

  While certain hard skills are necessary for any position, employers are looking increasingly for job applicants with particular soft skills. This is because, while it is easy for an employer to train a new employee in a particular hard skill (such as how to use a certain computer program), it is much more difficult to train an employee in a soft skill (such as patience).

  虽然某些硬技能对某一职位是必须的,但是雇主仍然很注重求职者某一方面的软技能。这是因为,对于新晋的员工,雇主可以很容易培训他们的硬技能(比如如何使用某一个计算机项目),但相比之下,就很难培训一名员工去提高他的软技能(如耐心)。

  Emphasize Both Hard and Soft Skills

  硬技能软技能同等重要

  During the job application process, you should therefore be sure to emphasize both your hard and soft skills. This way, even if you lack a particular hard skill required by the company, you can emphasize a particular soft skill that you know would be valuable in the position. For example, if the job involves working on a number of group projects, be sure to emphasize your experience and skill as a team player and your ability to communicate with team members.

  在求职的过程中,你必须同时注重自己的硬技能和软技能。这样,即使你缺乏某一职位所需的硬技能,你也可以强调你拥有该职位所需的软技能以便取胜。例如,如果这个职位需要与集体合作完成任务的,那么一定要强调自己的团队合作经历和技能,并且与其他团队人员沟通合作的能力。
