The Hidden Skills That Get You Hired

Send us a text

Want to know the skills that get you hired?  The National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) has identified core competencies that employers across industries are expecting from job seekers.

The good news? These competencies can be developed at any career stage through intentional practice. Online courses, mentorship relationships, job shadowing, and cross-training opportunities all provide pathways to strengthen these essential skills. When preparing for interviews or updating your resume, consider how specific examples demonstrate these competencies.

You don't need perfect mastery of all eight areas—everyone has natural strengths and areas for growth. The key is identifying where you shine and where you can improve, then intentionally developing a well-rounded professional profile. By showcasing these competencies effectively, you'll position yourself as exactly what employers are seeking: a candidate with the fundamental skills to succeed in today's dynamic workplace.
