With a network of over 660+ million professionals and 20+ million jobs, LinkedIn are well positioned to provide powerful insight to what matters most to the majority of employers, according to Corporate Dojo founder Karen Gately.
Every year the professional networking platform releases a list of both the ‘hard’ and ‘soft skills employers are most often looking for.
The ‘hard’ skills most in demand include new entrants Blockchain and Affiliate marketing.
Making the list again in 2020 are Cloud Computing, Analytical reasoning, Artificial Intelligence, UX Design, Business Analysis, Sales, Scientific Computing and Video Production.
“It’s hardly surprising to see technology related skills dominate the list and it’s reasonable to expect that will continue to be the case in the foreseeable future,” added Gately.
