People skills tend to be more valuable as compared to specialised skills, regardless of the industry you're in. However, a lot of graduate students turn out disregarding the development of these skills in order to become better at their individual field. Because of this, these people behave embarrassingly at social networking functions. Instead of creating strong connections, these people repel and bother business professionals. These types of rude or obnoxious graduate students speak ceaselessly about their own work, interrupt people, communicate in belittling tones, and come off as awkward, unconfident, and rude.
