What are employers looking for?

Hi Everyone:

This week in class, my HCA students and I talked about how to go out there and find a job once their schooling is done. I thought this is also a good subject to share with you. According to the presenter we had in class today from our local Health Authority the top 10 qualities employers seek are: 

1. Communication Skills (Verbal and Written)

2. Honesty/Integrity

3. Teamwork Skills (works well with others)

4. Interpersonal skills (relates well to others)

5. Motivation/Initiative

6. Strong Work Ethic

7. Analytical Skills

8. Flexibility/Adaptability

9. Computer Skills

10. Attention to Detail

So while working on those resumes of yours be sure to add how you demonstrate these qualities in your cover letter.
Remember, your resume is your way of selling yourself to your future employer!
