Do you have some of these skills?

Communication skills

• listening
• one-to-one communication
• writing
• presenting to a group

Ability to work as part of a team

• appreciating other people's strengths and weaknesses
• sharing information and opportunities
• having team objectives, not just personal ones
  

Time management skills

• make lists of things to be done
• prioritise
• schedule your activities and commitments so you can fit them in
  

Problem-solving skills

• face up to problems
• don't evade them and hope that they'll go away
• assess the options, and negotiate a solution
  

Flexibility

• be prepared to adapt to new situations
• when plans go wrong, make new plans instead of wasting time and effort regretting the past

You probably have some of these skills already. You could almost certainly benefit from experiences that would develop them further. Any of the following activities gives you chances to exercise your skills:

• student activities (e.g. clubs and societies, staff/student liaison committees, the students' union)
• work experience (paid or unpaid)
• family and community responsibilities
• your social life (e.g. sharing accommodation, organising outings, dealing with difficult relationships)   

And last, but by no means least:

• your studies (e.g. meeting deadlines, absorbing and analysing information, organising your ideas, describing them in written or spoken form so that people can follow what you are saying - and making them want to as well)
