drilling machine operatortoengraving machine operator
A drilling machine operator already meets 74% of what the engraving machine operator role asks for. The move turns on 7 required skills not yet in the profile.
This move: 34.8 of 100 · moderate
1 Share of the engraving machine operator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the drilling machine 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.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 43 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A engraving machine operator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a drilling machine operator background worth leading with.
- already held trigonometry natural sciences, mathematics and statistics
- already held CAM software information and communication technologies (icts)
- already held geometry natural sciences, mathematics and statistics
- already held procure mechanical machinery communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held interpret geometric dimensions and tolerances information skills
- already held CADD software information and communication technologies (icts)
All 43 carried skills, including the 22 the engraving machine operator role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 16 missing skills fall into 7 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered below in the order worth working in: the areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the supplementary ones.

Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a engraving machine operator role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 use automatic programming skill · sector specific
- 02 apply control process statistical methods skill · cross sector
- 03 apply precision metalworking techniques skill · cross sector
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
