42.3/ 100

1 Share of the securities broker role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the corporate banking adviser profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

Why

Why this move works

A securities broker role treats 13 of its required skills as things a corporate banking adviser already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • actuarial science
  • advise on financial matters
  • analyse financial risk
  • analyse market financial trends
  • economics
  • financial jurisdiction

What stands in the way is 7 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 18 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A securities broker role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a corporate banking adviser background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held stock market business, administration and law
  • already held review investment portfolios communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held financial jurisdiction business, administration and law
  • already held financial markets business, administration and law
  • already held accounting business, administration and law
  • already held communicate with banking professionals communication, collaboration and creativity

All 18 carried skills, including the 13 the securities broker role treats as required.

Note

How this record was compiled

Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
