Outdated skills

It occurred to me that this challenge is going to be so much different than it would have been an era ago. So many skills that people needed for employment are no longer utilized. For example, shorthand. It used to be necessary for a secretary to know and be quick at shorthand, and typing without errors. This is going to be some interesting research for me.

Information about what skills, knowledge and personal traits employers are looking for. I'm sure every company looking to hire has certain criteria they desire from the potential new hire.  I'm going to be doing some serious job hunting very soon in my life, right now I am going to do the research. If you are lucky enough to already have terrific employable skills, see what you need to improve those skills.
