    Different types of businesses need _different_ skills from new employees. 
 A bookkeeper hiring another assistant needs more math skills in that HS grad 
than a plumber does, and either need more math skills than an employer hiring 
a bulldozer operator.

    Again, different businesses need very different skill levels in different 
skill areas for new hires.  
    There is no "one size fits all" standard for what is needed in a new 
entry-level hire!  Spelling and writing skills are more needed for 
secretaries than for bulldozer operators and carpenters, even though all 
these jobs are typically held by HS grads without a degree from a 4-year 
college.
