Companies now prefer to hire people with good social skills as well as good academic qualifications. Do you think that social skills are now getting more important than educational qualifications?

Everybody knows that business life is global nowadays since

technology

has developed, and a

lot

of

companies

prefer their employees to be socially good.

however

, others want to have academic qualifications. I think It depends on the job. I strongly believe that social

skills

are more important than academics. In

this

essay, I will explain some of the reasons. On the one hand, a

lot

of

companies

work ınternatıonally and for them, communication or marketing is so important. ın adıtıon, many

companies

want to change

according to

the chaotic situation. The world changes every time.

Due to

the fact that they want to adapt to the new situations quickly.

For example

, in Iraq they had to torrıst attack for 10 years, at that time a

lot

of

companies

moved to another country which is why they needed somebody who could speak English well.

On the other hand

, a

lot

of people want academic qualifications

such

as science and business. They want to do scientific research. that's why

companies

prefer academic qualifications.

Moreover

, some

companies

work on

technology

and they want to have powerful departments.

Therefore

, they need an academician because only he has good experience and information about their work. It is not important to have social

skills

.

For instance

, there is a company called Biontec and they find some medicine to use for coronaviruses. They have been successful, thanks to scientists there.

To sum up

, some

companies

need social

skills

, others do not, it depends on the jobs. In my opinion, social

skills

are more important than academics because we live in

technology

time, and thanks to

technology

, business is becoming global.
