There are many qualities employers look for when hiring, but the ones listed below are the most common.
- Honesty
If you lie on your resume or during an interview, a company will most likely never consider employing you. In the mind of an employer, if you are willing to lie on your job application or during an interview, they will definitely not trust you to do your job with integrity.
- Adaptability
Are you able to adapt as your job changes? Employers look for candidates who are willing to adjust if the job requires and are not stubborn or stuck in their ways.
- Independence
Can you work on your own, use your own initiative and see tasks through from beginning to end? Most bosses prefer to not have to baby their employees and appreciate it when they can trust their staff to get the job done whether they are there or not.
- Collaboration
Employers often look to employ people who are willing to work in a team, if required.
- Dependability
Can your boss trust you to be at work every day, and on time?
Do you have any traits of your own to add to this list?
