<br />Common Skills Gaps
<br />
<br />The demand for common skills is projected to grow significantly, particularly for critical
<br />thinking (23.4%), innovation (25.8%), and self-motivation (22.7%). Despite being
<br />frequently mentioned by employers as essential, these skills remain underrepresented in
<br />job seeker profiles. Employers have emphasized that these competencies are critical for
<br />adaptability and problem-solving in dynamic work environments, yet they are often
<br />insufficiently integrated into traditional education and training programs.
<br />
<br />The projected growth of skills like prioritization and troubleshooting, exceeding 20%,
<br />reinforces the importance of developing workforce training programs that prepare
<br />candidates to meet these demands. Employer feedback has consistently underscored the
<br />need for candidates who can combine technical expertise with these essential workplace
<br />competencies.
