@MOHD AYYUB Wikipedia says:
Soft skills are a combination of people skills, social skills, communication skills, character traits, attitudes, career attributes, social intelligence and emotional intelligence quotients among others that enable people to navigate their environment, work well with others, perform well, and achieve their goals with complementing hard skills. The Collins English Dictionary defines the term "soft skills" as "desirable qualities for certain forms of employment that do not depend on acquired knowledge: they include common sense, the ability to deal with people, and a positive flexible attitude."
Atiquzzama Khan Mar 3, 2018:
@MOHD AYYUB Below what I found while searching for definition of 'Soft Skills'
"personal attributes that enable someone to interact effectively and harmoniously with other people."
In context of given definition I can suggest 'معتدل ہنرمندیاں' please let know if it looks fine then I will provide this as suggested translation in Answer column.
MOHD AYYUB (asker) Mar 3, 2018:

Kindly help by translating this term in general context. This is common term, but I am not sure about correct translation of this term.

Definition of Soft & Hard Skills:
Hard skills are specific, teachable abilities that can be defined and measured, such as typing, writing, math, reading and the ability to use software programs. By contrast, soft skills are less tangible and harder to quantify, such as etiquette, getting along with others, listening and engaging in small talk.

I will prefer to transliterate this term as it is tough to coin a single term with same connotation in Urdu, and if we coin a term, it would be harder to understand for readers.
Note from asker:
I would prefer transliteration. Thank you so much!

اور اس کے لئے اردو زبان میں بہت ہی خوبصورت لفظ استعمال ہوتا ہے جو تقاریر، مقالہ جات وغیرہ میں مستعمل ہے۔ اور وہ ہے
خدا داد صیلاحیتں
It delivers the same meaning as of "soft skills"
you can use the following as well
خدا داد مہارتیں
