In the technology industry, the lack of candidates with solid interpersonal skills is evident. Every day, individuals seek new professional opportunities, facing challenges to persuade employers of their suitability for the role.
Even with exemplary technical expertise, the ability to communicate effectively during interviews and the practical demonstration of interpersonal skills become crucial to advance in an increasingly selective market.
Although technical roles are predominantly technical, the current shortage of opportunities is leading employers to reevaluate their hiring criteria. Now, they are looking for professionals not only with technical skills, but also with communication skills, agility, flexibility and a clear commitment.
Interpersonal skills are therefore of great importance for jobs in the technology field. How can technical candidates meet this challenge?
Adaptation to the market
1. Self-assessment: Reflect on how your personality and behavioral preferences influence your professional trajectory.
2. Identifying areas for improvement: Participate in mock interviews to identify specific areas that require improvement.
3. Communication analysis: Evaluate how you communicate your skills, highlight collaborative experiences and engage in conversations relevant to the job search process.
4. Review of professional history: Allow constructive suggestions to improve presentation to future employers.
With specialized support, candidates can identify moments in which they stood out in communication, agility and taking on responsibilities. Small changes to your written and spoken communication skills, as well as a more comprehensive approach to interpersonal skills, are important steps towards progress.
Self-help in interpersonal development
1. Proactive Networking: Initiate contacts with unfamiliar colleagues, practicing presenting your skills and learning about the roles of others.
2. Event Attendance: Explore opportunities to visit the office or attend events in person, gradually stepping out of your comfort zones.
3. Gradual progression: Take small steps to expand your networks, avoiding the pressure of large networking events right away.
These initiatives will contribute to the ongoing development of interpersonal skills, allowing technology candidates to build a set of valuable experiences to share with future employers.
Future Relevance of Interpersonal Skills
1. Future forecast: It is believed that, in the future, interpersonal skills in the technology area will become even more critical.
2. Importance in challenging scenarios: Amid economic fluctuations, teams’ ability to communicate, adapt and take responsibility will be vital.
3. Opportunity for balanced professionals: Technical candidates with balanced skills will have a unique opportunity to contribute effectively in challenging scenarios.
4. Risks for those without interpersonal skills: Those who neglect to develop these skills may face difficulties in advancing their careers.
Therefore, to remain competitive and employable, it is imperative that technical candidates invest in continually improving their interpersonal skills, preparing themselves not just for interviews, but for the challenges of the ever-evolving workplace.
