23%
80.1/ 100
1 Share of the second-hand goods specialised seller role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the cashier 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 this move works
A second-hand goods specialised seller role treats 7 of its required skills as things a cashier already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- apply numeracy skills
- issue sales invoices
- operate cash register
- process refunds
- provide customer follow-up services
- sales argumentation
What stands in the way is 23 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 7 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A second-hand goods specialised seller role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a cashier background worth leading with.
- already held process refunds management skills
- already held operate cash register management skills
- already held sales argumentation business, administration and law
- already held apply numeracy skills information skills
- already held issue sales invoices management skills
- already held provide customer follow-up services assisting and caring
All 7 carried skills, including the 7 the second-hand goods specialised seller role treats as required.

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.
