1 Share of the bank teller role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the financial auditor 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 bank teller role treats 7 of its required skills as things a financial auditor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • banking activities
  • financial jurisdiction
  • financial products
  • maintain financial records
  • maintain records of financial transactions
  • produce statistical financial records

What stands in the way is 7 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 12 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A bank teller role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a financial auditor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held core banking software information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held produce statistical financial records information skills
  • already held maintain records of financial transactions information skills
  • already held trace financial transactions information skills
  • already held financial jurisdiction business, administration and law
  • already held financial products business, administration and law

All 12 carried skills, including the 7 the bank teller role treats as required.

The 29 missing skills fall into 9 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

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.
