Improving your communication skills
Communication skills of all kinds are always in the list of top requirements for employers. Your ability to communicate well will not only help you to get a job, but also to be successful in your lifelong career.
There are lots of ways you can improve your spoken and written communication if you put in some effort over a period of time. See the Improving your communication skills guide for lots of practical suggestions.
[Employers] are not overly impressed with new graduates’ basic literacy and numeracy with only 30% of employers reporting themselves as ‘very satisfied’ with these skills.
