讓工作富有成效的"軟技能"

        WANTED: Payroll Manager with BA in accounting, five years of management experience, extensive knowledge of payrollprinciples, and a sense of humor。

　　要求： 有會計學(xué)位的薪資管理經(jīng)理，有五年的管理經(jīng)驗，對薪資原則有充分的了解，有幽默感。

　　Wait. Humor? Now you have to reconcile W2s, process checks, and crack up coworkers? Has the job market become that competitive?

　　等等，幽默感？現(xiàn)在你必須要服從W2s，檢查程序，還要能夠讓員工開心？如今的求職市場的競爭真的變得如此嚴峻了么？

　　Not exactly. Employers seem to demand the moon these days, but they're really looking for candidates who may be easier to work with (assuming they already have the coreskills to do the job). That means "soft," or intangible qualities, such as leadership, sense of humor, or "playing well with others," can be a strong competitive advantage for the job seeker. When a search comes down to two systems analysts with similar backgrounds and core competencies, the one who also may be a better "team player," or can "wear many hats," is more likely to get the nod。

　　不盡然。如今的雇主的要求看起來都非常刁難，但是在那些早已具備工作核心技能的員工中，他們更傾向于尋找那些易于相處的人。這就是 “軟技能”，或有一些無形的素質(zhì)，比如領(lǐng)導(dǎo)能力，幽默感或與其他人相處融洽等都會成為求職者的超強優(yōu)勢。兩個背景相同、關(guān)鍵能力相同的系統(tǒng)分析員在競爭同一份工作職位時，那名善于團隊合作的人、或者能夠一人承擔多份任務(wù)的人最終將會得到這份工作。
