Are Engineers Learning "Sophisticated" Interpersonal Skills?

A paragraph to ponder from the WSJ:

"The findings largely echo what employers are saying about the evolution of the entry-level job, as noted in the Wall Street Journal on Wednesday. Automation and technology are replacing or reducing the menial tasks once associated with typical entry-level roles – those jobs that act as the first rung on a career ladder – so employers are raising the skills bar for their newest hires. Companies want those employees to arrive with sophisticated interpersonal skills, able to collaborate skillfully with colleagues and immediately interact with clients."
