1 Share of the wood painter role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the ceramic 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 wood painter role treats 13 of its required skills as things a ceramic painter already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • articulate artistic proposal
  • contextualise artistic work
  • create artwork
  • create original paintings
  • create sketches
  • develop visual elements

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

Skill the target role also needs Area

  • already held select artistic productions management skills
  • already held create original paintings communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held develop visual elements 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.
