Both engineers and business people are believed to be some of the most intelligent professionals in the world, embracing and conquering a large wealth of skills and knowledge. But which group of them will adapt their behaviors and personality to meet the social demands of the workplace? In such a competitive professional world, it is these talents that lead to the success of an individual. A study of Talentoday’s results database reveals the differing “Soft Skills” adopted by engineers and business people.

Personalities and motivations that distinguish us as individuals will naturally complement particular careers.

The following statistics indicate the trends identified by the study.
