stand-intoextra
A stand-in already meets 61% of what the extra role asks for. The move turns on 3 required skills not yet in the profile.
This move: 35.1 of 100 · moderate
1 Share of the extra role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the stand-in 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 · What you already bring
Of the 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A extra role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a stand-in background worth leading with.
- already held express yourself physically communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held harmonise body movements communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held adapt to acting roles communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held practice dance moves communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held collaborate on costume and make-up for performances communication, collaboration and creativity
- already held practise singing communication, collaboration and creativity
All 16 carried skills, including the 3 the extra role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 8 missing skills fall into 2 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 act discreetly required
- required, not held perform scenes for filming required
- required, not held act reliably required
- optional, not held exercise sports optional
- optional, not held practice martial arts optional
- optional, not held rehearse role optional
- optional, not held ride horses optional
- optional, not held use firearms optional
Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a extra role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 act discreetly skill · sector specific
- 02 perform scenes for filming skill · sector specific
- 03 act reliably 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.
