1 Share of the night auditor role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the club host/club hostess 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 night auditor role treats 5 of its required skills as things a club host/club hostess already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • assist at check-in
  • greet guests
  • handle customer complaints
  • maintain customer service
  • process reservations

What stands in the way is 6 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 6 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A night auditor role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a club host/club hostess background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held monitor guest access assisting and caring
  • already held process reservations information skills
  • already held assist at check-in assisting and caring
  • already held greet guests assisting and caring
  • already held handle customer complaints communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held maintain customer service communication, collaboration and creativity

All 6 carried skills, including the 5 the night auditor 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.
