Many years ago typing was a skill that only a fraction of the workforce possessed. In fact, I had one job where I was concerned about my ability to be successful.
The job description clearly required typing skills, and although I took typing in school I was not very proficient.
Typing is no longer considered a skill today any more than the ability to drive a car, since nearly every person can type to some degree or another.
Today, expertise in social media is still considered a skill. However, in the not-too-distant future everyone will have social media skills except for the rare holdouts who have not adopted this technology.
Are you on the social media bandwagon? If not, what are you waiting for?
