41%
63.1/ 100
1 Share of the scenic painter role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the performance hairdresser 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 scenic painter role treats 9 of its required skills as things a performance hairdresser already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- adapt to artists' creative demands
- meet deadlines
- prepare personal work environment
- prevent fire in a performance environment
- translate artistic concepts to technical designs
- understand artistic concepts
What stands in the way is 13 required skills 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 13 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A scenic painter role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a performance hairdresser background worth leading with.

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.
