51.5/ 100

1 Share of the homeopath role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aromatherapist 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.

Why

Why this move works

A homeopath role treats 10 of its required skills as things a aromatherapist already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • apply context specific clinical competences
  • comply with quality standards related to healthcare practice
  • develop therapeutic relationships
  • ensure safety of healthcare users
  • follow-up on healthcare users' treatment
  • homeopathy

What stands in the way is 8 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A homeopath role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aromatherapist background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held homeopathy remedies health and welfare
  • already held follow-up on healthcare users' treatment communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held carry out preventative internal medicine interventions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held homeopathy health and welfare
  • already held record healthcare users' billing information information skills
  • already held promote mental health management skills

All 16 carried skills, including the 10 the homeopath role treats as required.

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.
