Getting Ahead 
  • Gaining soft skills is key to career growth
    Soft skills, such as working well with others, are critical to career success, Todd Smith writes. He suggests several ways to develop such abilities, including observing the actions of key performers and learning from them. "[Y]ou will quickly realize that the people at the top of the pay scale are those who excel in their soft skills," Smith writes. LittleThingsMatter.com (2/8) LinkedInFacebookTwitterEmail this Story
Making the Connection 
  • Network with the click of a button
    Using the "share" buttons posted with online content can help you build your personal brand and network with others, but be clear about the message you're sending, J.T. O'Donnell writes. For example, she advises, use the LinkedIn "InShare" button to share professional content. Careerealism.com (2/8) LinkedInFacebookTwitterEmail this Story

  • How to learn more about a company's culture
    Ask questions about compensation practices and training opportunities during an interview to learn more about a company's culture, Meghan Biro writes.
