Many job seekers focus on showcasing their technical skills when vying for new positions. But while technical skills are undoubtedly necessary, soft skills are just as vital. For example, according to the job site, Indeed, many employers rank communication skills<\/a> as one of the most requested skills in job postings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A recent survey of corporate recruiters reveals that oral and written communication skills are among the top five skills employers look for in new hires<\/a>, with 81 percent of recruiters saying this is more important than any other type of skill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The demand for effective communicators also echoes in the data science job market. Employers know that the makings of a good data scientist go beyond having the technical know-how to analyze data and use the tools of the trade. One must also be able to communicate their insights to stakeholders, no matter their technical background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Put simply, to become a successful data scientist, you must be a great storyteller. And data science school Colaberry<\/a> understands this, which is why it houses built-in tools and activities designed to help you improve your communication skills for career success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\nColaberry focuses on developing technical and communication skills to transform students into job-ready data experts.<\/p>\nLearn more about Colaberry\u2019s programs today.<\/a>\n<\/div>\n

\"An<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Colaberry<\/a> offers comprehensive data science and analytics programs designed to springboard adult learners into the world of tech. In tandem with the technical training provided, Colaberry also focuses on human skills development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below you will find a list of tools and activities that Colaberry students can leverage to enhance their soft skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DISC Assessment Tool<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Learn to be a team player, leader, and communicator with DISC, a personal assessment tool that gives Colaberry students an in-depth look into their personalities and which areas need improvement. Your DISC assessment results will be displayed on your Colaberry network profiles, visible to potential employers. This way, employers can assess whether you\u2019re a fit for their company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colaberry App<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Attending a job interview is probably the most daunting aspect of the job search process, so practice and constructive feedback on your performance are essential. With the Colaberry app, you can upload your mock interview videos. Once uploaded, other students can rank and review your video to give you a better understanding of how others perceive your responses and which points need improvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The app\u2019s AI-driven video feedback system also reviews your video. Need more tips to improve? The Colaberry app has instructional videos that dish out steps you can take to improve your communication skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personal Profiles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Many would say that documentation is the most tedious part of a data scientist\u2019s job, yet its importance cannot be overstated. Having good documentation of a data science project allows data scientists to keep track of the decisions they made and issues they encountered throughout the process. Clear data documentation can also prove helpful for other data scientists who may want to reproduce or modify a project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Colaberry, you get to practice your documentation skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Colaberry network showcases graduate profiles, which include step-by-step documentation of a project they built. Your goal is to present your project’s objectives, how it works, the datasets you used, and your methodology. This serves as good training for your written communication skills and prepares you for the most boring aspect of your future job as a data scientist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Video Resumes<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While written resumes are still the default when applying for jobs, video resumes are also growing in popularity. Unsurprisingly, your Colaberry profile will also showcase your video resume, where you explain your strengths, skills, and the overall value you bring to the table. Colaberry mentors and an AI-driven system will critique your video, ensuring that the resume showcases you in the best light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You get more than one take. So, you can re-record the video until both your mentors and the AI give their stamp of approval.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The CAP Competition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every month, Colaberry holds a communication skills challenge where students compete against each other. Those not competing can vote for who they think the best communicator is. Over 100 Colaberry students attend the CAP competition. The winner moves on to compete in a Data Talent showcase. Competition aside, this fun event also builds camaraderie between students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Data Talent Showcase<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The winners from the CAP competition compete in a Data Talent showcase held at the end of each month. Participants present their projects to hiring managers and recruiters and receive real-time feedback. The showcase challenges them to communicate the process behind their work in a high-pressure environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
