About the book

This book is designed to help final-year undergraduate students preparing for job placements, both on-campus and off-campus, as well as graduate employees seeking promotions. It also aims to make graduate students ready for the job market. Employment skills focus on enhancing specific technical skills needed for a particular job while employability skills improve the soft skills necessary for various jobs across different fields. The book is divided into three sections: communication, cognitive, and affective skills/attributes. Each of the 49 skill-based units provides a brief definition of the skill, its essential benefits, its micro-skills, two hypothetical case studies, and activities for skill improvement.
