Cari’s Answer

It depends on what type of work you want to do, but in general I would say someone who is hardworking, dependable, on time, works well with other people. Most jobs will want people who can speak and write well.

Best of luck!

Eric’s Answer

Having an idea of what career path would help determine specific skills. But in general here are a few that I think are important to land any career:

-Be on time / dependable - arrive to work when you are supposed to and leave when you are supposed to. No looking at your phone, head down and do your work. People are paying attention.

-If you are in a team environment, be a team player, contribute useful and helpful information, teach others what you learn.

-Educate yourself on what job you are in or want. if computers - then you need certifications, Bachelors degree, and some life experience would help. If your industry has specific certifications, those are almost more important then what your college degree is focused in.

-Be professional on the interview. Dress in business attire - better to be over dressed for an interview then under. Eye contact, full sentences for answers, be honest, smile, ask questions and act like you are excited to have this opportunity.

-I think life experience in the specific industry you seek is very important. get a job at the company or in the industry you want - even if you need to start at the entry level, keep doing the above things and you will advance in time.

I hope this helps!
