Basic mastery of your tech stack (If the job is for embedded systems, maybe don't walk in and say you only know HTML lol)

Basic GIT

Basic algorithms (if you can do fizzbuzz you're gold)

Enthusiasm

A willingness to learn.

It might take 3 months of training to get someone from a hobbyist to professional junior level but they'll also probably spend much more time with the company to learn. If I had a company I would want someone who has attachment to the company, not someone who shows up for a check.

If you're not willing to invest in people I don't see how you can ever expect them to invest in your vision.
