Where a analytical chemist can go next

5 destinations recorded, ranked by how much of the target role a analytical chemist already meets. The closer to the top of Table 1, the less there is to learn.

Analytical chemists research and describe the chemical composition of substances. Moreover, they draw conclusions related to the behaviour of such substances in different conditions. Analytical chemists play an important role in looking at the relationship between chemistry and the environment, food, fuel, and medicine. They use a range of techniques such as electro-chromatography, gas and high performance liquid chromatography and spectroscopy.

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a analytical chemist already meets, counting required skills in full and supplementary ones at 0.35. It is directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. Every entry above opens the full comparison for that move: what carries over, what is missing, and where to start. The full method.
