Crazy skills: “unusual skills” highlight professionals


Recruiter and professionals can use crazy skills to select and increase careers, says Expert Group.

In the sea of ​​the curricula to which the recruiters have access during the selections, it takes a sharp look to identify the differentials of the candidates, in increasingly demanding processes – 81% of Brazilian employers report difficulties in hiring, according to the Manpowergroup survey. Talents often also cost to identify their highlights. Fortunately, in addition to the technical and interpersonal skills, attention is being paid to crazy skills or “extraordinary skills”.




Mad skills are considered skills that go beyond the corporate environment, by hobbies and other activities, such as voluntary practices, sports and crafts. Be aware of these skills can help the professional – and the recruiter – to understand how they can maximize work performance.

“Often, the candidate does not see his activities outside the office as something that enhanced himself in his career, but we are all built by new experiences and personal experiences, who tend to reflect directly on the labor market”, explains Milve Inouye, People & Culture Manager at Manpowergroup Brazil. “Today, with social networks, such as the LinkedInIt is possible to publish posts that show some of our crazy skills, so that possible recruiters and the networking network are aware of the mastery of these skills “, explains the expert.

For companies, the activities in which the candidate commits office hours help to analyze and identify the profiles corresponding to the open vacancies. For Milve, based on the knowledge of the hobbies, the teams of human resources (HR) can measure whether the candidate is more likely to have characteristics such as creativity, ease with teamwork and leadership, for example.

“Understanding how the professional refers to his personal life is a way to expand his understanding of his attitudes in the workplace. Therefore, it is interesting to identify his technical and socio-emotional skills, but also the crazy skills. In this process, the gaze to the behavior in the times of recruitment and promotions as an increase in times and promotions as a complement and a promotion.” He underlines.

To identify these special skills and know how to explore them, Milve recommends a self -analysis, considering daily tasks. This question can still detect improvement points, which also benefit from extracurricular practices. “If the professional feels necessary to instigate his spirit of leadership, for example, it is possible to seek activities that emerge from the rapid decision -making process and from teamwork, such as sports sports. All skills, difficult, soft or crazy, can be developed to increase their career,” he concludes.
