More Competencies in Demand by Employers (Part 4)

What are “competencies”? These are the capabilities, relevant knowledge and skills (such as technical and performance skills) a top performer would need to possess in order to be successful in the specific position.

Behavioral interviewing is all about looking for competencies, so here are a few of the top competencies most sought after:

1. Problem solving

2. Process improvement

3. Project management

4. Quality awareness

5. Quantitative analysis

6. Reliability/ responsibility

7. Research skills

8. Self-management/self-learning

9. Sensitivity/intuition

10. Strategic thinking

11. Teamwork.

12. Technical/technology skills

13. Tenacity

14. Time Management

15. Writing

It’s wise to prepare for interviews by researching, analyzing, and making an educated guess as to what competencies are desired. Job announcement can be a great source for identifying job-specific competencies.
