Employability skills, also known as key competencies or soft skills, are those basic skills necessary for getting, keeping, and doing well on a job. These are the skills, attitudes and actions that enable workers to get along with their fellow workers and supervisors and to make sound, critical decisions. Employability skills are generally divided into three skill sets: (a) basic academic skills, (b) critical thinking skills and (c) personal qualities. The three skill sets are typically broken down into more detailed skill sets.
Transferable skills, sometimes referred to as soft skills, are those critical strengths, talents, qualities, and personable attributes that go beyond the job specific skills that you are gaining in your academic classes or internships.
