63%
30.8/ 100
1 Share of the wearing apparel presser role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the sewing machinist 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 wearing apparel presser role treats 6 of its required skills as things a sewing machinist already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- alter wearing apparel
- distinguish accessories
- distinguish fabrics
- manufacture wearing apparel products
- manufacturing of made-up textile articles
- manufacturing of wearing apparel
What stands in the way is 4 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 8 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A wearing apparel presser role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a sewing machinist background worth leading with.
- already held alter wearing apparel handling and moving
- already held manufacture wearing apparel products handling and moving
- already held manufacturing of made-up textile articles engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held manufacturing of wearing apparel engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held apparel manufacturing technology engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held sew pieces of fabric working with machinery and specialised equipment
All 8 carried skills, including the 6 the wearing apparel presser role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 4 missing skills fall into 4 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.
- required, not held prepare production prototypes required
- required, not held iron textiles required
- required, not held coordinate manufacturing production activities required
- required, not held perform process control in the wearing apparel industry required
Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a wearing apparel presser role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 coordinate manufacturing production activities skill · cross sector
- 02 iron textiles skill · cross sector
- 03 perform process control in the wearing apparel industry skill · cross sector
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
