But times and tenures have changed dramatically when it comes to the modern career path.\n\nNow, it&#8217;s truly the norm for employees to \u2018pivot&#8217; between industries, taking transferable skills with them. Whether it&#8217;s to gain new experience or due to a lack of career growth, changing roles is predicted \u2013 and in many instances, a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/blog\/right-person-to-hire\/\">positive trait of highly motivated people<\/a>.\n<h2 id=\"employees-are-starting-their-job-search-for-a-career-change\">Employees are starting their job search for a career change<\/h2>\nWhile you as an employer might feel nervous at the thought of your star players changing roles, smart employers will see this as an opportunity.\n\nWhile we know that employees are on the move more frequently these days, the impact of Covid has definitely accelerated everyone&#8217;s plans. So much so that our survey results found almost one-third of Australian workers want their next role to be in a different organisation, but also a different industry.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_5061\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5061\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"woman taking a video recording of the office team\" class=\"size-large wp-image-5061\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/transferable-skills-to-look-out-for-during-recruitment-1-1024x683.jpg\" width=\"1024\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5061\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Employees are looking to embrace new careers. Photo by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@sammcghee\">Sam McGhee<\/a> on Unsplash<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"why-are-employees-looking-for-new-job-opportunities\">Why are employees looking for new job opportunities?<\/h2>\nWe can speculate on a few reasons why so many employees are looking to change it up.\n\nThe pandemic has shaken up our priorities. Time away from hustle culture has made us rethink our priorities and our goals. We&#8217;ve had more time to explore our hobbies and interests, and may now be considering these as an alternative career path.\n\nWhatever the reason may be, we&#8217;re seeing more career mobility than ever before. So how can we capitalise on this <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/employment-recruitment-trends-singapore\/\">growing trend<\/a>?\n\nWhen it comes to finding great new candidates, it\u2019s all about expanding your talent pool and spotting great applicants. One of the best ways to do this? Prime yourself to recognise transferable skills during recruitment.\n\nLooking for more paths to a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/recruitment-process-guide\/\">foolproof recruitment process? Check out our six tips.<\/a>\n<h2 id=\"what-are-transferable-skills\">What are transferable skills?<\/h2>\nWhen you&#8217;re recruiting, it&#8217;s likely many candidates won&#8217;t fit the bill on paper, but are actually a great candidate for the job.\n\nEven though they may have no direct experience in what you&#8217;re hiring for, they may have abilities and attributes that are perfect for the role.\n\nNot every job will be appropriate to utilise transferable skills. For example, if you\u2019re hiring a doctor &#8211; you\u2019re obviously going to need a certain level of education, qualification and experience. But if you\u2019re hiring someone for your sales team? It\u2019s very possible that someone with little experience in sales could thrive in the role.\n\nLooking out for transferable skills generally requires hiring managers and recruiters to reduce any non-essential demands within their <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/resources\/ideal-job-ad-template\/\">job ads<\/a> and job descriptions. So if the role doesn\u2019t absolutely need that university degree or three to five years experience? Don\u2019t say that it does.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_5060\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5060\" style=\"width: 320px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Steve Carrell in The Office, making a face\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5060\" height=\"177\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/transferable-skills-to-look-out-for-during-recruitment-2.gif\" width=\"320\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5060\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Making a job description too intense? Mistake!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 id=\"\"><\/h2>\n<h2 id=\"are-transferable-skills-and-soft-skills-the-same\">Are transferable skills and soft skills the same?<\/h2>\nMany transferable skills are also \u2018soft skills\u2019. Soft skills are generally defined as skills that make it easier for someone to work productively with others. They are often based around great communication and being able to positively influence those around you.\n\nWhile many transferable skills are also soft skills, not all soft skills are also transferable skills. Let\u2019s look at some of the most common examples of transferable skills to see how wide-ranging these are.\n<h2 id=\"which-transferable-skills-should-employers-look-for-in-candidates\">Which transferable skills should employers look for in candidates?<\/h2>\nLet\u2019s work through this essential transferable skills list.\n<h3 id=\"1-creative-thinking\">1. Creative thinking<\/h3>\nMany people love the chance to be creative, yet a whopping <a href=\"https:\/\/adage.com\/article\/news\/study-75-living-creative-potential\/234302#:~:text=In%20the%20U.S.%2C%2052%25%20of,much%20higher%20than%20Japan's%2019%25.\">75% of people<\/a> believe they aren&#8217;t living up to their creative ability. While you might think that being creative is only relevant to roles in the arts or design industries, that couldn&#8217;t be further from the truth.\n\nCreative thinking refers to the way someone handles a problem and how they solve it. It&#8217;s the notion of thinking outside the box and embracing innovation to solve business problems, which can be applied to almost any industry and role.\n\nLooking for creative inspiration? Tap into your childlike brain and learn more about creativity at work.\n<h3 id=\"2-strong-attention-to-detail\">2. Strong attention to detail<\/h3>\nNo one likes making mistakes, but in today&#8217;s fast-paced working world, they&#8217;re bound to happen from time to time. However, having strong attention to detail can help reduce those errors, no matter what job you&#8217;re doing.\n\nHaving someone who has a strong eye for detail can instil trust in employers as any mistakes can be picked up before it&#8217;s too late.\n\nThis is especially valuable in industries where details really matter, like public or media relations, or administrative roles.\n<h3 id=\"3-the-ability-to-adapt\">3. The ability to adapt<\/h3>\nThink back to the start of 2020 when the world was thrown into a spin. Chances are, you had to think of new ways to sell your product and communicate with clients. Maybe it was changing your product offering altogether or switching everything to digital.\n\nIf there&#8217;s one thing the pandemic has highlighted is that businesses who were able to adapt are doing better than those who weren\u2019t prepared to be flexible. One positive over the past two years has been that many people had a chance to flex just how adaptable they are and pivot in ways they didn&#8217;t think possible.\n\nThe ability to make the most of the current situation at hand and run with it? That makes a star candidate.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_5059\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5059\" style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Mustache guy flying through the wind\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5059\" height=\"288\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/transferable-skills-to-look-out-for-during-recruitment-3.gif\" width=\"480\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5059\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Adapt to win.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"-1\"><\/h3>\n<h3 id=\"4-strong-communication-skills\">4. Strong communication skills<\/h3>\nCommunication is everything, making it one of the most sought-after transferable skills of today. Being able to communicate effectively is a skill that\u2019s always in demand, and a huge asset for candidates looking to pursue a new role or industry.\n\nThe ability to clearly and succinctly articulate something ensures there&#8217;s little room for confusion, a skill that many employers are looking for. Bringing charisma and people skills to a role can also make a candidate stronger at negotiation and sales.\n\nLooking to improve your own interpersonal skills? Here are <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/blog\/communication-in-the-workplace\/\">12 techniques for better communication in the workplace<\/a>.\n<h3 id=\"5-emotional-intelligence\">5. Emotional intelligence<\/h3>\nEmotional intelligence (EI), otherwise known as EQ (emotional quotient), can be defined as the ability to perceive, understand and manage one&#8217;s feelings and emotions.\n\nSomeone who is emotionally intelligent usually displays these five distinct traits of EI:\n<ol>\n<li>Self-awareness \u2013 they have a conscious knowledge of their own character<\/li>\n<li>Self-regulation \u2013 they are able to regulate their own behaviour and emotions, without intervention from others<\/li>\n<li>Internal motivation \u2013 people who engage in behaviour from their own will power, because it&#8217;s satisfying to them<\/li>\n<li>Empathy \u2013 a person who has the ability to understand and share the feelings of another<\/li>\n<li>Social skills \u2013 someone with good social skills is competent at communicating and interacting<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/blog\/emotional-intelligence-in-the-workplace\/\">Emotionally intelligent employees<\/a> are more likely to keep their cool under pressure and act as rocks for their team. This could lead to them making better business decisions and displaying an overall higher level of job performance, making it a highly transferable skill.\n<h3 id=\"6-critical-thinking-skills\">6. Critical thinking skills<\/h3>\nCritical thinking is another great skill to have in your toolkit. The process of thinking critically allows for logical thinking and thought processing. If you&#8217;ve got a team of critical thinkers, you&#8217;re already lightyears ahead of your competition.\n\nCritical thinking requires the decoding of evidence-based thoughts to understand different outcomes. It involves evaluating information and making strategic decisions to solve a challenge.\n\nCritical thinkers are essential to business success and a skill that has been and will be, in demand for a very long time.\n<h3 id=\"7-growth-mindset\">7. Growth mindset<\/h3>\nEmployees who have a growth mindset are forward thinkers and extremely motivated to push themselves to try new things. They think outside the box and take each failure as a learning opportunity that will help them later down the track.\n\nThe pandemic acted as a catalyst for identifying those with fixed and growth mindsets. Those with growth mindsets would have stepped up and shown initiative. They would have easily adapted into unfamiliar terrain. <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/blog\/common-limiting-beliefs\/\">Those with fixed mindsets<\/a> would have been more likely to take a back seat or retreat.\n\nWe recommend you embrace people who have a growth mindset and see them for what it is \u2013 opportunity.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"table of fixed vs growth mindset characteristics\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-5058\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/transferable-skills-to-look-out-for-during-recruitment-4-1024x683.png\" width=\"1024\"\/>\n<h3 id=\"8-analytical-skills\">8. Analytical skills<\/h3>\nLike with problem-solving and critical thinking, strong analytical skills are highly transferable. The ability to break down a complex problem into more manageable parts is something that can benefit all teams in all industries.\n\nAdditionally, the ability to make data driven decisions and arguments is becoming an increasingly in-demand asset. As many companies switch over to digital systems and tools that offer valuable analytics, being able to turn those numbers into insights is an invaluable skill.\n<h3 id=\"9-leadership-skills\">9. Leadership skills<\/h3>\nHave you ever noticed that some people in senior leadership positions often seem to jump between seemingly unrelated companies?\n\nA CEO might lead a food brand, then make the switch to a business in sports or technology. How can they do this without having the preexisting knowledge of the sector?\n\nGreat leaders are able to analyse a market, think strategically, identify their team\u2019s skills, delegate and listen. If they have these leadership skills, they can be dropped into a management role in most industries and thrive.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_5057\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5057\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Steve Carrell in The Office, holding a World's Best Boss mug.\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5057\" height=\"282\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/transferable-skills-to-look-out-for-during-recruitment-5.gif\" width=\"500\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5057\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Please note &#8211; BYO mugs do not accurately signal leadership abilities.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"10-technical-skills\">10. Technical skills<\/h3>\nThe term \u2018technical skills\u2019 can cover a very broad range of abilities. As defined by learning platform <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/articles\/what-are-technical-skills#:~:text=Technical%20skills%20are%20the%20specialized,to%20health%20care%20and%20education.\">Coursera<\/a>; <em>\u201cTechnical skills are the specialised knowledge and expertise required to perform specific tasks and use specific tools and programs in real world situations.\u201d<\/em>\n\nDigital skills would be some of the most relevant technical skills for employees who are looking to switch industries. Candidates who bring digital knowledge like computer skills, data analysis or knowledge around coding should instantly have a competitive edge for roles.\n<h3 id=\"11-problem-solving-skills\">11. Problem-solving skills<\/h3>\nIt takes a talented person to take a complex situation and find actionable solutions.\n\nTo assess if your candidate has these skills, ask them about ways that they have approached complicated situations to solve problems in the past. Get them to talk you through their actions step-by-step.\n\nIf they can thoughtfully deconstruct their actions and show you that they took initiative to solve the problem, you could be onto a great thing and one of the most powerful transferable skills.\n<h3 id=\"12-time-management-skills\">12. Time management skills<\/h3>\nTime management is essential for employees who work within fast-paced environments. When you\u2019re churning through a large workload, juggling the needs of different clients or working to deadlines &#8211; being able to properly manage your day is essential.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_5056\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5056\" style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Manager pointing at a time piece.\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5056\" height=\"258\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/transferable-skills-to-look-out-for-during-recruitment-6.gif\" width=\"480\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5056\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Eyes on the clock, always.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"-2\"><\/h3>\n<h3 id=\"13-project-management-skills\">13. Project management skills<\/h3>\nKeeping track of moving parts, pushing actions forward, chasing up stakeholders &#8211; these are all skills of a great project manager.\n\nProject management combines organisational skills with communication skills. It also generally requires the person to be familiar with documentation and work management software.\n\nIt\u2019s a unique skill set that can be difficult for many people to adopt, so if a candidate has these skills, get them onboard asap!\n<h3 id=\"14-writing-skills\">14. Writing skills<\/h3>\nWe often prioritise verbal communication over written communication during the recruitment process, which could lead us to overlook great talent.\n\nWriting skills are not just helpful for roles that have some kind of creative writing or publishing element (content or technical writing, media, internal communications), they are also useful when it comes to managing internal and external relationships.\n\nEspecially in this digital world, where we\u2019re emailing and instant messaging much more than we are picking up the phone, being able to communicate in a concise manner can be great for relationship building and productivity.\n<h3 id=\"15-listening-skills\">15. Listening skills<\/h3>\nListening skills are incredibly underrated. Being a good listener not only means that you\u2019re able to learn and understand information easily, it can also help you be a kinder and more empathetic colleague and leader.\n\nNo matter where someone is in their career, if they can listen &#8211; they can learn.\n\n<figure id=\"attachment_5055\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5055\" style=\"width: 480px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Aubrey Plaza listening intently\" class=\"size-full wp-image-5055\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/transferable-skills-to-look-out-for-during-recruitment-7.gif\" width=\"480\"\/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5055\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Primed and ready to listen.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"16-positivity\">16. Positivity<\/h3>\nEver heard of \u2018the power of positive thinking\u2019? It\u2019s a cliche for a reason.\n\nPositivity at work can help your employee reduce their stress levels and stay motivated, even on challenging days. But it\u2019s not only great for the individual.\n\n\u2018Social contagion\u2019 is the phenomenon by which feelings and sentiments spread through groups of people. Essentially, we influence the moods of those around us. So if you\u2019ve found that ray of sunshine person, they will not only be delightful to work with, but will likely also lift up others in their team.\n<h2 id=\"take-your-recruitment-digital\">Take your recruitment digital<\/h2>\nRecruitment can be a time-consuming process.
