Career Readiness Skills

Career readiness skills are skills that are generally required to succeed in the 21st century workplace, like communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity. In addition to these career readiness skills,  I feel that some effective employability skills to help one get a good job are punctuality, accountability, and a good personality. Above all else, I think it's critical that an employee shows up to work on time prepared, because if a boss can't even trust them to do that, there's no way they're going to keep them around. In addition, companies must be able to trust their employees to take on roles and hold themselves accountable for their work, so if a person can't live up to those expectations, they'll be replaced by someone who can. Since most careers involve working with others, it's crucial that a job applicant has an admirable personality and is sincere with their actions, because any superior can easily notice a negative or uninterested person, and they won't want that kind of behavior in their productive workplace.
