Employability Skills Profile:
Academic Skills


Try other Employability Skills Profile quizzes in: During the in-school sessions of co-op, I received a series of quizzes that assess my employability skills. Employability skills are aptitudes that employers are looking for, such as the ability to communicate, solve problems, work with others, get organized and set goals. I have converted the quizzes into JavaScript form, and everyone is welcome to take these quizzes on their own web browsers to see where they stand in terms of employability skills.
