soft skills

[Sanjay]

Broadly speaking, we can view software testers as having two kinds of skills: one set used to perform basic duties at work, and another set of skills used to approach work. The former can be categorized as technical skills and the latter as soft skills. To elaborate more on soft skills, these are the ones that define one's approach towards work, life, problems, etc. Soft skills are people skills. The best part about mastering them is that the application of these skills is not limited to one's profession, but their scope reaches all aspects of life. Technical skills may teach one how to meet the expectations of the job, but soft skills teach one to succeed, and to exceed expectations. It is surprising that we spend our time educating almost exclusively in technical skills.

Having said so much in favor of soft skills, my intention is never to undermine the importance of technical skills. It's nearly impossible for a tester to survive in the profession without sound technical skills. What I intend to challenge here is a popular myth: Technical skills, and only technical skills make a tester a complete professional. I firmly believe that both technical and soft skills compliment each other and the balance between these two is what makes a tester a complete professional. Now, let's have a look at the various soft skills that make up a successful software tester.

Whatever career you choose, but you should have enough confidence to present yourself in front of public. Whether you are an IT professional, non IT, Doctor, Lawyer, Business man or you are in Media, You should know how to interact with people.

If you have academic qualification like mba then it's not any worth if u dont have any work experience or at least the knowledge of corporate world.

So u should know how to survive in corporate world and u should have enough confidence to face people so that u can put ur point in front of people.


If u think u dont have this much good communication skills then join a course from ''Anurag Agarwal Institute of public speaking'' (http://anuragaggarwal.com/). It's really a great institue and can help u a lot in ur career. It's not a regular course. It's a part time course. You will have to come only once a week.
