1 Share of the amusement and recreation attendant role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the attraction 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.

Why

Why this move works

A amusement and recreation attendant role treats 6 of its required skills as things a attraction operator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • amusement park emergency procedures
  • announce amusement park attractions
  • assist amusement park visitors
  • clean amusement park facilities
  • direct amusement park clients
  • monitor amusement park safety

What stands in the way is 3 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 7 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A amusement and recreation attendant role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a attraction operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held announce amusement park attractions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held assist amusement park visitors assisting and caring
  • already held direct amusement park clients communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held amusement park emergency procedures services
  • already held maintain amusement park attractions constructing
  • already held clean amusement park facilities handling and moving

All 7 carried skills, including the 6 the amusement and recreation attendant 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.
