What is a……
SKILL QUALITY
Skills and Qualities
A skill requires learning,
often acquired through
specialist training and
knowledge. It can be
loosely defined as the
‘what’ we can do well
A quality, on the other
hand, is more about
‘who’ we are as a
person; a distinctive
attribute or
characteristic
possessed by someone
or something.
What are
transferable skills?
Transferable skills are a core set of skills and abilities,
which can be applied to a wide range of different jobs and
industries. They're usually developed over time, and can
be gained from previous positions, charity or voluntary
work, your hobbies, or even just at home.
Meet Saniya, Clara, Charlie and Advik. They all worked as
Cabin Crew members but due to the pandemic the airline
they worked for was required to make some cuts and now
they’re out of a jobs!
What skills will they have developed in their job within the
travel industry, that can transferred into another role?
Knowledge of
legislation/policy
e.g.
Equality and
Diversity
Health and Safety
Customer
Service
Communication
and listening Teamwork
Working
under
pressure
and
flexibility
Attention to
detail
Time keeping
and
organisation
Enthusiasm
and
personability
English
and
Maths
What is a SWOT Analysis
A SWOT matrix is a framework for analyzing your
strengths and weaknesses as well as the
opportunities and threats that you face. This helps
you focus on your strengths, minimize your
weaknesses, and take the greatest possible
advantage of opportunities available to you
SWOT Analysis
Weaknesses
• Not worked in different fields outside
of the travel industry
• Not updated CV for a long period of
time
• Not applied for a job or had an
interview in numerous years
Threats
• Pandemic impacted travel industry
job roles
• Increased number of people
applying for roles advertised
Strengths
• All transferable skills highlighted
in previous slide
Opportunities
• New roles created from pandemic
(e.g. NHS)
• Changes to working practices (e.g.
working from home)
• Courses available to support with
confidence and skills (e.g.
updating CV)
