(the article) Millennials are the largest generation of all time with more than 80 million members. They are the most educated and the most underemployed generation ever. Now, more than ever, competition is extremely high within the workforce. Employability isn't just about having a good GPA or the college you graduated from anymore, employers are looking specifically for candidates that have valuable life skills, behaviors and disciplines.

Employers look for the following behaviors: positive attitude, strong work ethic, excellent communication and interpersonal skills, problem solving skills, time management skills, flexibility, computer and coding skills, project management skills, self confidence, ability to accept feedback and strong research skills.

These skills, behaviors and disciplines will not necessarily appear as line items on a resume but are drawn out in conversation during the interview process. Employers also want to know that you will fit into their company culture. If you have a great resume on paper and graduated with Harvard but cannot connect with team members then you're less likely to get a job over a candidate that shows they are positive, upbeat, hard working and team oriented.

Companies are beginning to care less about what you know and more about how well you know yourself. Knowledge and information will continue to become less important compared to innovation and the ability to problem solve. Don't delay in crafting the non-academic skills and personal behaviors that you will need to succeed in life after high school.
