The top 21 skills all companies across industries are looking for include:

1. Statistical Analysis System (SAS)
Employers are willing to pay you handsomely if you possess knowledge of this data analysis software.

2. Data Mining/Warehousing
Combing through large amounts of data and picking out patterns from them to optimise profits is another expensive skill.

3. Search Engine Marketing
The ability to reach customers digitally through search adverts is one of the most important skills businesses need to employ.

4. Data Modeling
Database design skills are another valuable skill that companies are willing to pay for substantially.

5. Contract Negotiation
Business, Finance, and Management roles are filled with contract negotiation opportunities which speak directly to the bottom line.

6. Software Development
Mastering digital tools is a needed skill across industries and are therefore very valuable.

7. Strategic Project Management
The balance between high-level thinking partnered with good attention to detail makes possessors of this skill highly sought after.

8. Strategic Planning
Regarded as a trifecta, strategic planners attract higher pay, access to a range of industries, and a short cut up the corporate ladder.

9. Technical Sales
If salespeople can master technologically complex products and services, they're in for a fatter paycheck.

10. Customer Service Metrics
Your skills as an excellent tracker of customer experience, satisfaction and predictor of future customer behaviour, makes you an asset to any team.

11. Financial analysis
Costs, revenue and profitability: possessing the skills needed to manage these makes you a highly desirable candidate.

12. Risk Management/Control
With regards to operational threats, being able to assess and minimise them is an alluring skill to have.

13. SAP Material Management
Knowledge of this inventory, purchasing and other elements of the supply chain means you can negotiate a higher salary before accepting a job offer.

14. Business Analysis
Identifying business needs and solutions allow you to work in many industries with a great salary to match.

15. IT Security and Infrastructure
Curbing the devastation of hackers and spammers from infiltrating sensitive information makes this skillset in demand.

16. Lean Manufacturing
Reducing waste has become an ever-important aspect of big corporations.

17. Forecasting
In order to effectively generate business outlooks, this skill requires you to be able to pair management insights with historical data.

18. Clinical Education
The ability to teach patient procedures is useful in education, medical and various social science industries.

19. Computer-Aided Design/Manufacturing
This is another skill that allows you to apply and work within several industries anywhere in the world.

20. Systems troubleshooting
Methodically diagnosing and repairing operational failures makes this fundamental problem solving related skill attractive.

21. New Business Development
Companies are willing to offer increases to workers who are able to use their skills to generate new revenue streams and bring aboard new partners.
Unsurprisingly, data analysis skills, financial skills, business and strategic thinking skills, as well as tech skills render you highly employable and simultaneously eligible for a higher salary.
