While the tone of this post is mocking, it’s a very real thing that having the social skills to match someone else’s vibe during an interview can help tremendously with helping the interviewer see you as someone who can fit with the company culture.
I see people who struggle with getting jobs often are lacking in those sort of soft social skills.
If you’re looking for postings, you’ll have an easier time finding a job, but a harder time getting it, because there’s so much competition.
If you’re searching right after graduation, so’s the rest of your class, and you have to compete with them.
If you’re hitting up relevant companies in hopes that they can hire you, you’ll have a harder time finding a place with an opening, but once you do, the competition is near zero. You need only prove you’re a good fit.

You are supposed to either already have connections, or be forced to adapt your skills to create connections.
Ya know, they just want to make sure you’re one of them first and not one of the others
I honestly need to work more on my connecting. Hopefully not any time soon but that networking gives me hella anxiety

If you lack social skills you better have some sort of labor relevant skill to replace it with them!
Where and when you’re searching plays into it.
