When hiring for technical teams, especially in more junior roles, I value someone with good social skills over someone with high technical skills. Technical skills are much easier to teach than social skills.

That's the opposite of my experience. Talkers are a dime a dozen. Tech talents are a gem and you're very lucky to get them. The few of them will do most of your work.
