Today social skills are being more and more emphasized by employers. Some people believe that social skills are important besides good qualifications for their job success. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Modern work environment demands impeccable social acumen with academic grades to get success and progress in a professional career. Many people and educational institutions give equal importance to both, the educational achievements and the social skills. I fully agree with the belief as good grades can give you a job, but good interpersonal skills can ensure a successful job career.
Nowadays, many multinational companies during their university placement drives use the criteria of good marks only for shortlisting of the probable candidates not for final selections. The shortlisted students pass through many rounds of group discussions and personal interviews, so that employers can assess the recruits for their interpersonal skills. The final decision on the selection is mainly done based on the performance in these skills only. Due to that, many colleges have started introducing courses focused to develop social skills among their students.
It depends on the type of the job as specific fields of jobs require mainly people's skills. People with excellent social skills can only ace the peculiar domains of work like sales and marketing, where they require extremely good convincing power over customers and vendors. It can be observed in the popular and big organisations, where the owners with less or no prior academic background have successfully managed the company solely by their personal skills.
In my profound opinion, social and personal skills are as important as good academic statistics, as ultimately those skills are going to propel the growth of professional career efficiently. Parents and teacher should encourage the students to take the classes for the improvement in the area.

Museums are places where historical remains and cultural antiques are stored and preserved in order to present what the past had to the present and future generation. It is usually funded by the government and thus avaible for public usage with its free-from-charges service. However, there are some museums that have some kind of incentive barrier that keeps them from getting freely visited by the public. This practice has its own advantages and disadvantages, and I firmly believe that the advantages are outweighted by the disadvantages and thus making this practice innefficient.
I didn't have any nightmare travel experiences, but my friend has had such an experience. She flew to Russia twice, to St. Petersburg. All these two times she flew with her mother and on business, they made various documents, tried to apply for citizenship in advance and got it done. When they flew there for the first time, everything seemed to go well and they handed over all their personal data and documents and even had time to rest. But when they flew for the second time, everything didn’t go according to plan. When they landed at St. Petersburg airport they were immediately detained by the police. My friend was taken to some orphanage or shelter, and her mother was taken to the police. My friend spent 2 days in a separate room with no windows, just a bed.The food was completely incomprehensible; no one knew what it was. The room was very small.

In this and that day, interaction through social media is more popular among the folks.
