How to Use Your Human Skills to Get Hired

There are soft skills. Then, there are hard skills. Hard skills are things like knowing how to play the piano. Soft skills are more human, such as interpersonal communication, public speaking, leadership, etc. Many people think hard skills are the ticket to a successful job search, but soft skills are more important than you may think. Al Dea, who is the founder of Betterwork Labs, sat down with LinkedIn News Editor Andrew Seaman to discuss how soft skills help you laser in and focus on your own job search and career development plan. Al also breaks down how soft skills can be used to prove yourself once you land your job.   BONUS: Al Dea will be answering your questions on an upcoming episode of #GetHired Live.
