Begin Hiring for Soft Skills<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within the current hiring climate, there is now a\nmuch bigger focus upon skills the candidates possess. Skills are now being\ndubbed the currency of the future. The specific emphasis is now upon soft\nskills, rather than hard skills. <strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>To address this skills\nshortage, recruiters are shifting their focus to hire for the ability to adapt\nto changing roles in flexible organisational structures.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As you may be aware, sometimes the best\ncandidates may not be portrayed particularly well in their applications, as\nthey themselves haven\u2019t recognized their own skills and potentials. This is\nwhen psychometric testing becomes incredibly useful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Psychometric tests are used to analyse the\nsoft skills that people possess. They help to identify any personality traits\nand attributes that would support a candidate within a particular role. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"575\" height=\"339\" src=\"http:\/\/www.big5assessments.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Screen-Shot-2019-12-11-at-12.13.19.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3856\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.big5assessments.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Screen-Shot-2019-12-11-at-12.13.19.png 575w, http:\/\/www.big5assessments.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Screen-Shot-2019-12-11-at-12.13.19-300x177.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 575px) 100vw, 575px\" \/><figcaption>The importance of Soft Skills <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Between&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mckinsey.com\/featured-insights\/future-of-work\/skill-shift-automation-and-the-future-of-the-workforce\">now and 2030<\/a>, the demand for social and emotional skills will grow across all industries by 26% in the United States, and by 22% in Europe.
