The Hidden Curriculum of Soft Skills: Recognition, Capital, and Who Gets Left Out Job adverts demand communication, leadership, and resilience. But who actually gets credit for them? Drawing on Bourdieu, Puwar, and Rivera, this article argues that soft skills are not recognised neutrally — they are filtered through class, race, and cultural capital. The result is a hiring system that mistakes social advantage for individual merit.

Soft skills aren't neutral. Who gets credit for "leadership" and "resilience" depends heavily on class, race, and whose experiences the hiring process was built to recognise.

My Fair Lady isn’t a romance so much as a wager.
A test of who gets reshaped, who gets praised, and what it costs to be allowed in the room.
Less nostalgic than disturbingly current.
