Explanation:

A skill is an ability to use the acquired knowledge in execution or performance. As we gain experience and learn, our skills upgrade.

There are different types of skills. Social skills, for example, are needed in order to communicate effectively with other people. Soft skills encompass social skills, interpersonal skills, our character traits, opinions, etc. Soft skills are usually mentioned in resumes and job offers (for instance - ability to work under pressure, patience, flexibility, etc). Hard skills, on the other hand, are related to a particular situation. They differ from soft skills in that they can be tested and measured.
