Some employers believe that job applicants’ skills are more important than their academic qualifications. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

In the modern world, social

skills

are the utmost important ability compared to educational

skills

. Many employers are trying to employ candidates with

such

quality rather than just book smart. To a large extent, I agree with

this

concept, and I will

further

elaborate on

this

in detail. There are obvious merits of great social

skills

. Foremost, communication is the major factor that helps to interact with a wide range of people and to promote buyer-seller relationships; as well as increase the growth of a business.

Next

, having good communication

skills

will allow people to strengthen their sales abilities.

For instance

, a seller can let the customer more thoroughly understand the products and persuade them to purchase the product.

Furthermore

, employees who present excellent communication

skills

, usually are found to be more easygoing and easier to talk to; which are extremely important in a workplace.

However

, some people believe that educations are a prerequisite for employment. Many positions require higher education, knowledge, and capability of dealing with problems precisely. Like the manager position, a company requires the applicants to have higher education with managing

skills

, to cope with problems smoothly.

Such

skills

are acquired during the study years.

Therefore

, not only having social

skills

is important but

also

greater knowledge is equally important to run a business. In conclusion, I agree with the importance of communicational

skills

to a large extent; yet higher education and knowledge cannot be overlooked. Having employees with both these qualities makes a cooperate or an organization grow stronger.
