65%
38.5/ 100
1 Share of the ATM repair technician role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the computer hardware repair technician 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 ATM repair technician role treats 11 of its required skills as things a computer hardware repair technician already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- apply company policies
- create solutions to problems
- electronics
- maintain customer service
- perform maintenance on installed equipment
- perform test run
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 · What you already bring
Of the 24 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A ATM repair technician role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a computer hardware repair technician background worth leading with.
- already held repair equipment on site working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held report to the team leader information skills
- already held install software working with computers
- already held use repair manuals information skills
- already held work in shifts communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held provide customer information related to repairs communication, collaboration and creativity
All 24 carried skills, including the 11 the ATM repair technician role treats as required.

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a ATM repair technician role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 ATM systems knowledge · occupation specific
- 02 identify security threats skill · cross sector
- 03 lift heavy weights skill · cross sector
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
