1 Share of the fishing net maker role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the boatswain 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 fishing net maker role treats 2 of its required skills as things a boatswain already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • fishing gear
  • pollution prevention

What stands in the way is 1 required skill 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 8 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A fishing net maker role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a boatswain background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held use fishing vessel equipment working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held handle cargo handling and moving
  • already held fishing gear agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held risks associated with undertaking fishing operations agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held quality of fish products agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
  • already held fishing vessels agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary

All 8 carried skills, including the 2 the fishing net maker role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

Skill to acquire Tier
01 handling and moving 1 required
  • required, not held repair sailing equipment required
02 assisting and caring 1 supplementary

The 1 entries a fishing net maker role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.

Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
