STEM is Science, Technology, Engineer and Mathematics. This is easy to define because we are considering four subjects which are precise and clear. It is more difficult to recognize when one discipline overlaps   with another. For example a carpenter who is not a STEM skilled employee requires STEM skills such as mathematics and engineering.

1) It isn’t easy to give an univocal definition to STEM skills, anyway I think that it is an approach to a complex and understandable universe, where to apply for knowing, exploring, discovering, engaging with the world, and then the ability to improve it.

2) Reflecting about non-STEM careers but using skills, I think at some works in the social area: pedagogists, psychologists, social assistants, but also I think of all of them who care for products and services: bakers, restaurant owners, sellers ...

1.- I agree with the definition of STEM skills given in the article taht could be resumed as "the ability to apply a systematic and critical assessment of complex problems with an emphasis on solving them and applying the theoretical knowledge of the subject to practical problems".
2.- An example could be a journalist who should have a proper knowledge of maths to show and analize data and statistics.

In addition, is indispensable being capable of coordinating the mental activity with the hands-on skills, otherwise, it will be as a painter who possess a great imagination to create a painting and a void aptitude to reflect it in a linen.
2. I believe that an ARTIST (sculptor, painter ...) can benefit of having knowledge on physics, chemistry, geometry, geology, IT... Another profession that also can be based on skills relative to STEM careers is CHEF, because in the kitchen can be very useful to have some knowledge of physics and chemistry to achieve new technologies of kitchen and even risk prevention.
