A navy officer already meets 80% of what the army corporal role asks for. The move turns on 1 required skill not yet in the profile.
80%
19.3/ 100
1 Share of the army corporal role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the navy officer 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 this move works
A army corporal role treats 10 of its required skills as things a navy officer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- ensure compliance with types of weapons
- give battle commands
- lead military troops
- maintain operational communications
- manage troop deployment
- military code
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 · What you already bring
Of the 21 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A army corporal role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a navy officer background worth leading with.

- already held coordinate humanitarian aid missions communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held assess danger in risk areas information skills
- already held give battle commands communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held coordinate patrols management skills
- already held lead military troops management skills
All 21 carried skills, including the 10 the army corporal role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn

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.
