I am good at multitasking, goal-oriented, and good at teamwork.

These are all good qualities to have; however, I encourage you to dig deeper. Most candidates offer up these words so, to stand out, try giving specific and more unique qualities.
"The three qualities that make me the best candidate include my ability to be a solid decision maker, my conflict resolution skills, and my adaptability."
Anonymous Answer
I think my three best qualities are my drive for success, my leadership, and that I am outgoing and love to talk and meet with as many people as possible. I know that Johnson and Johnson requires a lot of travel and social events and this is something I would look forward to and feel as though I would shine in.
