1 Share of the court jury coordinator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the probation 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.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 6 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A court jury coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a probation officer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held advise on legal decisions communication, collaboration and creativity
already held criminology social sciences, journalism and information
already held compile legal documents information skills
already held court procedures business, administration and law
already held legal research business, administration and law
already held apply knowledge of human behaviour communication, collaboration and creativity

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.
