Where a human resources officer can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a human resources officer already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Human resources officers develop and implement strategies that help their employers select and retain appropriately qualified staff within that business sector. They recruit staff, prepare job advertisements, interview and short-list people, negotiate with employment agencies, and set up working conditions. Human resources officers also administer the payroll, review salaries and advise on remuneration benefits and employment law. They arrange for training opportunities to enhance employees' performance.

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a human resources officer already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
