There are differences between employability, academic and technical skills.
Academic skills refer to the studies a candidate must have to perform a job. For example, to work as a teacher candidate must have a teaching degree or being enrolled in a teaching course to apply for the position.
Technical skills refer to the technical knowledge a candidate must have to perform a job. For example, a translator must have knowledge about computers and software as they need not only the academic skills but also the use of specific translation software to upload a translation.
Employability skills refer to the essential capabilities a candidate must have to perform a job efficiently. These are general skills that are not directly related to job-specific functions. Among the most important employability skills are: internal and external communication, ability to work under pressure, team work, negotiation and interpersonal skills. All these skills will make a candidate more employable and competitive in the job market.
Answer:
These are the sentences containing a pronoun shift:
4) Teenagers often want more freedom, but you need to show that you are responsible.
5) If a student wishes to go on the field trip, they must bring in a permission slip.
Explanation:
Pronoun shift is a kind of grammatical error in which the author starts off by using a kind of pronoun and then ends up using another kind of pronoun in a sentence or paragraph.
The first sentence starts in third person (teenagers) and midway shifts to second person (you), indicating a pronoun shift.
The second sentence starts in third person singular (a student) and shifts to third person plural (they), indicating a pronoun change.
Pronoun shifts are best avoided because they are confusing for the reader.
