Task 3: The Importance of communication skills for engineers

 “Employers identify communication as one of the basic competencies every graduate should have, asserting that the ability to communicate is valuable for obtaining employment and maintaining successful job performance.”

- Sherwyn Morreale, Michael Osborn & Judy Pearson, Professors of Communication (2000)


Explanation:

The following quote suggests that in order to be successful in obtaining an employment, and in the long run maintain a successful job performance. Every graduate must be able to present their capabilities in communication as it is one of the basic competencies that employers find to be valuable in the work setting. Therefore, it implies that employers are looking for potential employees who are able to confidently demonstrate to them good communication. Not only is good communication to impress the interviewer during the interview process, but also for when you obtain the job and start working in the company. This shows that having good communication skills is important not only for the company, but also for yourself to ensure you secure the job you want and have the capability to maintain your position by having a better job performance to prove that you deserve your place in the company. As such, the company will regard you as an asset and will want you to continue working for them.

  1. I agree with the quotation above. The content is clear and easily understood. Some structure and length of sentences can be improved as it is too long and repetitive. There are some minor mistakes in the use of punctuation and grammar. I think this post is fairly good.
