In this week's episode, Kitty distinguishes hard skills and soft skills and talks about what they are and how they are different. She also recommends that if you are undertaking a job search, start keeping an inventory of all your skills and distinguish between hard and soft skills for use in your resume. Hard skills are those things that you KNOW and can DO. Soft skills are the people skills that, frankly, many employers consider givens these days, but they are still essential and should not be forgotten.

Kitty also mentions that it's important to read job descriptions carefully to don't waste time applying for jobs you aren't qualified for. Don't skip over terms that you don't understand or think you could learn. Employers write those job descriptions because they look for people who have the skills and knowledge to do them. So do yourself a favor and don't waste time applying for jobs you aren't qualified for.
