Answer:
This article's main point is that education isn't everything when it comes to being hired. Having confidence, creativity, and people skills are much more likely to land you a job and make you stand out from others. It makes the point that, "[Millennials] are the most educated and the most underemployed generation ever." I believe this is due to the generation before them, being there parents, wanting them to get the best education possible because they didn't and they forgot to teach them what it means to be a genuine hard-working individual. I do agree with what the author is saying. I believe that your academic knowledge can give you a place on a list and into and interview but your soft skills are what is going to get you the job. Knowing how to persuade and how to seem trustworthy and confident will show employers that you will be a good employee to work with and that you will deliver quality work. In the concluding statement the author said, "Don't delay in crafting the non-academic skills and personal behaviors that you will need to succeed in life after high school." I agree with what the author is saying here, they want young adults or teenagers to start developing their skills outside of school so that they will be better prepared for life in the "real world." I have been working on my non-academic skills for a while now. I knew I needed to start working on these early because I was very shy, which is why I got a part time job. This job helped me to break out of my shell and develop communication skills that I will need to succeed in college and in life.
