The first step in creating a Skills Requirement Checklist is to complete a competency mapping process for each job. Once that is completed, the checklist can be created. Each job will have specific requirements, from tangible skills such as typing speed, to more intangible, such as good communication skills. The benefits of the Skills Requirement Checklist for both the employer and employee are numerous, and include clarifying performance standards, documenting knowledge, and increasing communication which fosters a more positive work environment. When the time comes for performance evaluations, both the employer and employee have a clear set of skills and standards to evaluate.

A Skills Requirement Checklist is a tool that is used by organizations to recruit and hire the most qualified employees by itemizing the skills needed to perform a specific job and hiring the person with the highest number of skills on the list. Get started with our Skills Requirement Checklist template.

How to use it:

1. Update the checklist requirements as desired.
2. Describe the skills needed for each item.
3. Create an action plan based on developing and updating your Skills Requirements Checklist.
