Nearly three quarters (73%) still rate basic skills such as Microsoft Office on CVs; however, they advised candidates against listing irrelevant ‘soft skills’ including leadership and creativity.

Lee Biggins, Founder of CV-Library, comments: “While some employers now place more importance on broader experience and niche skills, it’s important that job hunters really shout about their soft skills, and highlight transferable qualities that they can apply to the role in question.
“Only the best CVs make the cut, so it’s important that they contain only the most relevant, enticing information for employers.”
Of the soft skills listed on CVs, communication (78%), attention to detail (57%), self-motivation (55%) and strong work ethic (53%) were rated most highly.
The least favoured soft skills to include were public speaking, creativity, leadership, conflict resolution and research skills.
