Psychic to dating service consultant
A psychic already meets 32% of what the dating service consultant role asks for. The move turns on 10 required skills not yet in the profile.
68.1/ 100
1 How much of what a dating service consultant is expected to do is already part of a psychic’s work. Directional: the figure for the reverse move differs, because moving into a speciality is not the same problem as moving out of one. 2 Every skill the dating service consultant role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.
Why this move works
A dating service consultant role treats 5 of its required skills as things a psychic already does. You would walk in with these on day one.
- assess character
- develop professional network
- give advice on personal matters
- maintain customer service
- use consulting techniques
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 · What you already bring
Of the 10 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A dating service consultant role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a psychic background worth leading with.
- already held give advice on personal matters assisting and caring
- already held assess character management skills
- already held perform lectures communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held use consulting techniques communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held manage a small-to-medium business management skills
- already held administer appointments management skills
All 10 carried skills, including the 5 the dating service consultant role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you may need to learn
The 22 missing skills fall into 5 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, numbered in the order worth working in. Areas carrying the most required skills come first, and inside each one the required skills sit above the optional ones. Nothing here is a verdict on you: it is a list of what this particular job asks for that your current one does not.

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.
