This is another online PDF document I found about skills and capabilities, recruiting, international organisations which include interesting statistics on skill requirements and percentages of how graduates can be employed. Some of the key stats that I picked out when reading through was that “86% of employers consider good communication skills to be important”, ”1 in 6 employers indicated completing a full degree overseas made the candidate more employable”, and “‘soft’ skills such as team working are also vital and even more important than most ‘hard’ skills, although numeracy and literacy skills are considered essential by 70% of employers.”

Top 10 important skills along with percentages that I may use in my animation:

COMMUNICATION  86%

TEAM-WORKING  85%

INTEGRITY  83%

INTELLECTUAL ABILITY  81%

CONFIDENCE  80%

CHARACTER/PERSONALITY  75%

PLANNING/ORGANISATION  74%

LITERACY  71%

NUMERACY  68%

ANALYSIS/DECISION-MAKING  67%
