Forget Learning To Code, Bosses Value Collaboration and Communication (fastcompany.com)

Posted by msmash on from the what's-hot-these-days dept.

The top priority for developing talent is to train for soft skills, according to LinkedIn's 2018 Workplace Learning Report which surveyed more than 4,000 professionals. From a report: The report found that while automation is requiring workers to maintain technical fluency across roles, the rise of machine-led tasks makes it necessary for them to do what machines can't, which is to be adaptable, critical thinkers who can lead and communicate well.

    What kind of idiotic tripe is this, Miss Mash? Everyone knows that bosses want only ONE thing:

    10+ years in Angular
    10+ years in REST experience
    10+ years in Node.js
    20+ years in ASP.NET
    10+ years in MS Dynamics
    10+ years in MongoDB
    10+ years in Java
    10+ years in TCL
    30+ years in COBOL


    And they won't hire you if you're over 35.
