1 Share of the decorative painter role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the artistic painter 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 decorative painter role treats 16 of its required skills as things a artistic painter already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • contextualise artistic work
  • create artwork
  • create original drawings
  • create original paintings
  • create sketches
  • develop an artistic framework

What stands in the way is 5 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 24 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A decorative painter role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a artistic painter background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held gather reference materials information skills
  • already held create original paintings communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held create original drawings communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held develop visual elements communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held submit preliminary artwork communication, collaboration and creativity

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.
