A Stud finder and battery operated hacksaw for cutting holes for fixtures and receptacles and of course a measuring tape.

You mentioned that you're new boss would expect you to have certain tools. My Dad is an electrical and construction contractor. He subcontracts as well as employs other guys. Most of the time they have their own screwdrivers, utility knives and hammers but beyond that they don't supply much of their own. Each new guy has his own personal assortment of favorite tools that he might bring. My Dad does this for his livelihood and has for years so he's got all he will need for a job. If you are looking to be in the employ of an electrical contractor then ask HIM what you need. Don't buy anything until you do. Everything else will most likely be extras that you wouldn't necessarily need.
