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

Sociologists focus their research on explaining social behaviour and the way people have organised themselves as a society. They research and explain the way societies have evolved by describing their legal, political, and economic systems and their cultural expressions.

Note

How these figures were compiled

Coverage is the share of the target role’s weighted skill requirement a sociologist 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.
