Dayneisha there are a certain set of skills that employers look for in their future employees. Here are the top five skills I think are the top most desired skills for a candidate to have when a company is looking to hire you for a job.
CRITICAL THINKING
Critical thinking is important for analyzing any problems and challenges faced by them at work and create a solution driven approach. It is the ability of approaching a situation in a step by step and clear manner to come out with real solutions to real problem. Apart from knowledge it is how the candidate applies himself in real life situations to derive solutions.
TEAMWORK
As employees it is important for them to realize that they are part of an organization and an organization is made from people who work together in tandem. A worker who lacks team work can be an excellent personality but can sometimes fall behind in being an excellent asset to the company.
PROFESSIONALISM

Hello Dayneisha,
Doc has provided a comprehensive overview of what most employers seek in their employees. I'd like to further underscore the significance of adaptability in the workplace. It's crucial to embrace and adapt to the various changes that may arise in your professional life. These changes could pertain to your specific role, the dynamics of your team, or even broader shifts within your company.
Adaptability is not just a workplace skill, but a life skill that will serve you well in many different scenarios and job roles. Resistance to change or a reluctance to adapt could potentially hinder your progress and leave you trailing behind.
Here's wishing you all the very best in your endeavors!
