Hybrid skills combine hard skills with soft skills, often requiring technical proficiency alongside people-oriented abilities. These are the skills that help people work across teams, navigate complex systems, and solve problems in real-world business contexts.
Bryq’s Hybrid Skills Assessments are built to measure these multifaceted capabilities — offering insight into how individuals apply both hard and soft skills in tandem. Whether you're assessing someone’s ability to manage a project, analyze risk, or implement ethical AI practices, hybrid assessments provide the clarity needed to make confident, cross-functional talent decisions.
Why Hybrid Skills Matter

Hybrid skills are critical for:
Working across departments or disciplines
Leading complex projects
Navigating risk, regulation, or customer needs
Bridging technical systems and human interactions
By assessing hybrid skills, you gain a deeper understanding of how someone thinks, eacts, and delivers outcomes in dynamic, high-impact environments.
