Typing speed used to be one of the most sought after skills in the past. Specially the jobs that carried tasks like data entry, customer service etc., the ability to type fast was of utmost importance. In today’s scenario, mostly, there’ll be no mention of typing speed in the job description. But not calling it out explicitly doesn’t mean that no body cares about it. In my opinion, it is now taken for granted. A decent typing speed is least you could offer in the role.
