One simple answer can be that you cannot be a driver without driving skills.
Here we are looking for a good driver.
So it is important to have social skills .
Thus in my opinion social skills are more important because when you socialize you must try to learn from others experiences and spend quality time while socializing.

Actually in my opinion both are closely related to each other.
Being social means to be interactive with people around you cannot manage your interactions or social affairs without having the proper social skills for example greeting each other is one social skill.
One cannot simply be with himself he has to be social and improve his social skills.
hope that answered :)

A person is more advantageous to gain skills through experience and practice rather than reading it straight from materials of knowledge like books or the internet.
Such things come naturally, one cannot force being social because it is known that some people just blend in.

To have a good social skills

What ever we think in mind we should speak it out by not hiding from others so that we can mingle and can be social,with social skills

I think to have good social skills.
Because having them, you only have to see how the other person is.
Maybe to be social could take to a familiar behaviour with the other person and maybe he is quite formal and could feel uncomfortable.
So, for me good social skills is better because depending on the other person you can adapt your behaviour and make the other person feel comfortable.
