52.7/ 100

1 Share of the bank teller role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the investment clerk 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 bank teller role treats 9 of its required skills as things a investment clerk already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • banking activities
  • communicate with customers
  • customer service
  • financial products
  • handle financial transactions
  • maintain records of financial transactions

What stands in the way is 5 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 17 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A bank teller role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a investment clerk background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held offer financial services communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held provide financial product information communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held electronic communication engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held ensure proper document management information skills
  • already held maintain records of financial transactions information skills
  • already held trace financial transactions information skills

All 17 carried skills, including the 9 the bank teller role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 24 missing skills fall into 9 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

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.
