1 Share of the hair stylist role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the miniature set designer 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 hair stylist role treats 7 of its required skills as things a miniature set designer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse a script
  • analyse the need for technical resources
  • consult with production director
  • finish project within budget
  • follow work schedule
  • translate artistic concepts to technical designs

What stands in the way is 9 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 12 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A hair stylist role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a miniature set designer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held work with the director of photography communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held consult with production director communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held lighting techniques arts and humanities
  • already held manage consumables stock management skills
  • already held finish project within budget management skills
  • already held analyse the need for technical resources information skills

All 12 carried skills, including the 7 the hair stylist 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.
