1 Share of the parking valet role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the motorcycle delivery person 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 parking valet role treats 4 of its required skills as things a motorcycle delivery person already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

communicate with customers
drive vehicles
interpret traffic signals
road traffic laws

What stands in the way is 10 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 5 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A parking valet role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a motorcycle delivery person background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held drive in urban areas working with machinery and specialised equipment
already held interpret traffic signals assisting and caring
already held road traffic laws business, administration and law
already held drive vehicles working with machinery and specialised equipment
already held communicate with customers communication, collaboration and creativity

All 5 carried skills, including the 4 the parking valet 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.
