1 How much of what a fuel station specialised seller is expected to do is already part of a cosmetics and perfume specialised seller’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the fuel station specialised seller role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
