This move: 34.1 of 100 · moderate

1 Share of the property appraiser role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the real estate surveyor 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 17 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A property appraiser role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a real estate surveyor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held compile appraisal reports information skills
  • already held concurrent estate business, administration and law
  • already held perform field research information skills
  • already held advise on property value communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held examine the conditions of buildings information skills
  • already held perform property market research information skills

All 17 carried skills, including the 11 the property appraiser role treats as required.

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.
