In your code you are doing something wrong.

Try this variable = data; instead of using $("variable").val(data);

$(document).ready(function () {
    jQuery.ajax({
        type: 'POST',
        url: baseurl + 'port/skills',
        context: document.body,
        error: function (data, transport) {
            alert("Sorry, the operation is failed.");
        },
        success: function (data) {
            //var countries=data;
            variable = data;
        }
    });
});
