1 Share of the spa attendant role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the locker room attendant 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 spa attendant role treats 7 of its required skills as things a locker room attendant already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • allocate locker space
  • clean building floors
  • handle customer complaints
  • maintain cleaning equipment
  • maintain customer service
  • provide athletic equipment to clients

What stands in the way is 14 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 9 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A spa attendant role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a locker room attendant background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held provide athletic equipment to clients assisting and caring
  • already held allocate locker space management skills
  • already held restock towels management skills
  • already held restock toilet facilities' supplies handling and moving
  • already held clean building floors handling and moving
  • already held collect items for laundry service handling and moving

All 9 carried skills, including the 7 the spa attendant 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.
