Most job adverts that ask for digital skills are not asking for programming. They are asking whether you can handle information: find it, check it, organise it, explain it and act on it without creating extra work for other people.
That breaks into four habits. Work in shared systems rather than private files. Record what you did so someone else can follow it. Check a figure before you pass it on. Explain your conclusion in plain language.
Every remaining day of this mini course builds one of those habits. None of them require a technical background, and all of them transfer between industries.
Today’s task. Write down three tasks you did this week that involved finding or checking information. Note how long each took. You will use this list on day 7.
Which of these best describes a 'digital skill' in most job adverts?
