Last Week’s QOTW Poll Results:
Q: What’s the most important skill/attribute to employers when hiring?
- Culture Fit – 42%
- Soft Skills - 30%
- Hard Skills (technical) - 28%
Technical knowhow and communication skills are important to any job, but you can see from this weeks’ results that culture ranks even higher. How candidates fit in with your existing group is critical to their success – this includes how they get along with teammates & clients, and how they connect with your company’s mission and values.
