Local software engineers should work on improving their soft skills in addition to their technical skills, member of the House of Representatives’ (DPR’s) Commission X, Bramantyo Suwondo, stated.
“There are plenty of engineering graduates, who are quite good, but they lack soft skills, such as collaboration, public speaking, communication, and language. Learning soft skills, such as public speaking, is best through direct practice,” Suwondo noted in his statement received here on Saturday.
The House member also called on software engineers to be more active and dynamic in preparing themselves to meet the needs of the industry that is developing swiftly.
In Germany, the industry’s requirements always align with what is taught in the world of education, so their graduates possess the requisite industry-specific skills, he pointed out.
