their ideas and explain their
thoughts and also to put forward
their queries in effective manner.

 For computer engineers, one of the prominent part in the
software development lifecycle tends to be the role of business
analyst.
 While gathering requirements for the project, an analyst needs
to have pure command over the subject as well as be an
adequate communicator so that information can be flown to
both the concerned parties in a channelized manner.
 Same goes for electrical or instrumentation engineers who are
supervising large scale mechanical equipments, if they are not
dealt with properly and their usage is not well known to them,
communicating at a low level to their associated might create a
problem for them

9.  Communication Skills are very
important to crack the
interviews.

decide what will be the question
asked to you by the interviewer”
 So good communication skills
are needed to get simple

point across the table, no matter how competent you are,
you will not be perceived positively in your profession.
 Upon a survey conducted, it was
brought to knowledge that more
than 50% of the engineering
projects that fail are purely due to
ineffective people’s management
and the inability of a manager to
convey his message to the team due
to various communication barriers.

the engineering sector, go to hire
such candidates who are
outstanding in speaking,
management and writing, even if
the candidates are ranked average
in their academics.

19.  Poor communication skills, low confidence levels and
improper body language have resulted out in the job race.
