Hmm, I'm not so sure about C. I mean, sure, professional body membership looks good on paper, but it doesn't necessarily mean they'll be good with cash. I'd go with A, B, and E.

I think B and E are crucial for sure. You can really get a sense of the candidate's work ethic and skills from their previous employers.

I'd say A, B, and E are the most relevant. Checking for any criminal history and getting references from past employers are super important for a cash handling role.
