6. Personal characters such as honesty, fairness, loyalty, hardwork

Please tell me. thanks.

forget all those textbook answers . the most important skills are open honesty , initiative & the ability & motivation to jump in & have a go. get these honed up first then build on the above pretty boy points & trade / college qualificationsi f needed

do you know how many of those big well known oldtimers started at the bottom as cleaners ,office boys etc:

do whatever your hand finds to do to the best of your ability , treat every one with courtesy & respect & people will notice more than a big flashy resume
( remember , that grapevine out ther can get pretty big so it no use bullshiting )

Basically all th above stated are equally impt. It depends on your job nature and position. For executive level, No. 1 and 5 is crucial.
But for normal office job, No.6 and interpersonal is impt too.

If you are on sale job, No. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 are equally important.

Bascially, all are impt to develop you as a total person! So build on all this areas and it will definately help you in all types of industries!

But commonly, personal character is the fundamental criteria for company to employ a worker….

Hope its helps! :)

So their salary won’t go up by 1.4% next year. They still have jobs. The middle class won’t see their taxes go up by an average of $3000 either because that’s what the GOP would have stood by and watched happen in order to protect their precious top 2% of earners. Millions across this country will also have heat and food due to the extension of unemployment benefits that the GOP would have let run out.
