As a general rule, most characters have something they're good at and something they struggle with. While too much of the former is the most obvious cause of Sueishness, too much of the latter can also be bad for a character. If your characters manage to succeed at difficult tasks despite lacking any sort of skill or aptitude, it make readers wonder why exactly they somehow manage it. You could end up running into deus ex machina territory, or even Anti-Sues.

I'd suggest just poking around the wiki and trying to find an agent that's a good example of what you're looking for.
