1 Share of the electroplating machine operator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the anodising machine operator profile. Required skills count in full, supplementary skills at 0.35. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs. 2 Combines what is missing with how specialised it is, so a gap of general skills scores easier than the same number of narrow ones.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 34 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A electroplating machine operator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a anodising machine operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held dry coated workpieces handling and moving
  • already held monitor coating specifications information skills
  • already held clean industrial containers handling and moving
  • already held metal coating technologies engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held electric current engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held spot metal imperfections information skills

All 34 carried skills, including the 10 the electroplating machine operator role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 12 missing skills fall into 5 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

Note

How this record was compiled

Both occupations are taken from ESCO, which lists the skills and knowledge each occupation is expected to have and marks every one required or optional. Nothing here is a prediction about hiring, and nothing here knows that a particular employer wants a particular certificate. Treat Table 3 as a starting point for your own research rather than a syllabus. The full method states what these figures can and cannot tell you.
