Very nice skills to have but if you really want to be a "no-brainer" for a prospective employer, ensure you have the following five skills in abundant quality - and you don't even have to go to college to get them!

1. Positive attitude
2. Excellent customer/interpersonal skills
3. Desire to do the best job possible, regardless of task at hand
4. Perfect (or near-perfect) attendance and willingness to work longer hours when necessary
5. Ability to perform under stress

I can assure you that the above skills will virtually guarantee you a job. Add to that leadership skills, personal initiative and a desire to always learn and get better, you will also assure yourself of upward mobility.

Having the skills you cite is great. Goes without saying that those are the real requirements for most jobs, in almost any field. The problem is getting an interview so that you can convince an employer that you do have those skills and attitudes. To get the interview, you have to have the more specific competencies they're looking for, or think they're looking for, in a specific position.

I have about 2.5 of the skills listed at the top.

However, I also have all 5 of your list. I make pretty good money, am well-respected by my peers and managers, and have been told that the company cannot afford to lose me.

I would add a sixth item to your list, though--willingness to learn. Careers are almost always changing and evolving. If you cannot adapt and adjust, you'll be left behind.
