Java skills wanted in the market

I have been looking around at what companies seem to want currently from a mi level Java programmer, it seems to be all over the map. I also have notice a big rise in the demand for C#/ASP programmers as well. So if your starting to hunt for a new Java developer position here is a list of things you might want to study up on a bit before going out on the job hunt:

Java RMI
Java Swing Basics / tutorials
EJB basics / tutorials
Some basic internationalization
Java Date formatting or more Date timezones
Java Applet security
Compressing serialized objects or other output files in Java
Threading issues of Array List
I know we all extend classes and work with interfaces, but they always ask questions about it at interviews
There are also many testing positions available which want experience with JUnit.

So if your currently on a Java position and looking around a bit, here are some areas you should really brush up on a bit before starting your interview rounds.
