49.4/ 100

1 Share of the bulk filler role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the oil mill 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.

Why

Why this move works

A bulk filler role treats 7 of its required skills as things a oil mill operator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • adhere to organisational guidelines
  • apply GMP
  • apply HACCP
  • apply requirements concerning manufacturing of food and beverages
  • follow hygienic procedures during food processing
  • follow verbal instructions

What stands in the way is 7 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 10 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A bulk filler role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a oil mill operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held follow verbal instructions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held follow written instructions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held follow hygienic procedures during food processing assisting and caring
  • already held act reliably communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held apply GMP assisting and caring
  • already held apply HACCP assisting and caring

All 10 carried skills, including the 7 the bulk filler role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 10 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.

5 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
