In the Formation of a Career as a Lawyer the Importance of Soft Skills

Abstract

The article discusses the importance of public speaking skills, time management, initiative, creativity, creativity and logical thinking in the work of a lawyer. In particular, students studying in the specialty of jurisprudence, in such areas as state, criminal, civil, labor, environmental law, acquire knowledge about the laws, regulations relating to these areas, as well as when and how to apply them. This knowledge is called “hard skills” in world pedagogy – hard, stable skills. In the same world pedagogy as in the world's leading law schools, there is a set of knowledge called “soft skills” – soft, mobile skills. This knowledge and skills can be mastered only with the help of social sciences, or rather, academic subjects arising from the combination, complementarity of specialties and social sciences.
