1. What is the operating definition of emotional intelligence for this survey? Are respondents all using the same definition? Do they even really have a clue, or have they ever even thought about this before?
2. Do they have IQ assessments to compare their assessments (if any) of emotional intelligence against? And why are IQ tests being used to measure intelligence for these purposes? (Not usually the best method.)
3. Assuming they even understand the questions they are answering, are their reasons for valuing emotional intelligence factually accurate?
4. What amount of bias is expected in taking data fro m people who would be offered and answer this Career Builder survey?
These questions may be answered somewhere, but I won't spend much time digging through the site to find the answers. Then again, what I did find is this idiocy:
