- Novice (1) Siege Operator
- Competent (3) Fighter
- Competent (3) Wrestler
- Competent (3) Dodger
- Expert (8) Engraver
- Expert (8) Mason
- Novice (1) Animal Dissector
- Adequate* (2) Tanner (* the new term for the old "no label" level 2 experience slot)

Another (rerun via seasonal save, same season as above):
- one w/ High Master (13) Furnace Operator and Talented (6) Appraiser.
- one with Talented (6) Cheese Maker, Adequate (2) Gem Cutter and Novice Archer, Dodger, Armor User and (yes) Blowgunner.
- and a very familiar level 2 (Adequate) Dyer.
I had one with *two* Grand Master (14) medical skills show up. (anon)
GM is 1 short of Legendary. It seems at least two things are true: 1) experience can be quite high, and 2) skills are no longer grouped by "profession", nor have to make any "sense" re matching up.--Albedo 19:43, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
For what it's worth, I've noticed on two separate forts that giving the first Dwarf caravan a good deal (100% profit or thereabouts) tends to produce a massive migrant wave the following spring. One fortress had 19 show, the other had ~20 (can't quite remember). These were varying in skill from the virtually-nothing to a jeweller with Grand Master Gem Cutter and Grand Master Gem Setter...
For relatively new players like me, it might be worth noting here that you can get a migrant wave in the first spring after embark that literally doubles the size of your fortress and can prove a serious headache to manage if not anticipated. --Nimblewright 09:11, 6 April 2010 (UTC)
