  Similarity between occupations is a crucial piece of information when making
career decisions. However, the notion of a single and unified occupation
similarity measure is more of a limitation than an asset. The goal of the study
is to assess multiple explainable occupation similarity measures that can
provide different insights into inter-occupation relations. Several such
measures are derived using the framework of bipartite graphs. Their viability
is assessed on more than 450,000 job transitions occurring in Slovenia in the
period between 2012 and 2021. The results support the hypothesis that several
similarity measures are plausible and that they present different feasible
career paths. The complete implementation and part of the datasets are
available at https://repo.ijs.si/pboskoski/bipartite_job_similarity_code.
