5 skills for an employee.

Companies hire and fire everyday. Even in this economy there are still jobs available for those looking. Here are five skills that I believe to be important for a future employee to have.

1. Motivation.
An employee needs to have motivation. They need to be able to do things on their own and not be told to do things multiple times. I think it is very important for an employee to be able to do things that he or she is not told to do but he or she does things they know need to be done.

2. Typing.
My Brother-in-law is over Human Resources in his company. When I asked him what are five skills he looks for in an employee, the first thing he said was typing. In most office jobs, typing is a very important commodity. A fast typer is more likely to get more achieved.

3. Time Management
Time Management is important to those in school, and even those who are not in school. For those who manage their time wisely they are able to accomplish more and be able to get things done when they are supposed to be done.

4.People Skills.
Of course getting along with people is a very important skill to have when it comes to working in a business. If a person doesn't get a long with others, they make it a difficult place to work. Also when it comes to the company's clients, it is important for employees to get along with those as well.

5. Honesty. Last but every bit as important, is Honesty. An Employer wants to be able to trust his or her employees. Without trust it would be hard to leave people on their own to do their own thing. When you can trust someone it makes things to be so much more stress free. Trust is so important.
