That’s what “apprenticeships” are for. The most experienced pass their knowledge down to the next generation as the most experienced prepare for retirement. Everybody starts somewhere, and it’s usually at the bottom. Lacking “soft skills” is code for the female HR rep taking an instant dislike to you at the interview, for whatever emotional reason that rules at the moment.

I find HR departments the biggest impediment to getting work. And getting qualified workers.
