34.3/ 100

1 How much of what a paperboard products assembler is expected to do is already part of a tissue paper perforating and rewinding operator’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 paperboard products assembler role is recorded as needing, required and optional together. What these numbers mean.

Why

Why this move works

A paperboard products assembler role treats 10 of its required skills as things a tissue paper perforating and rewinding operator already does. You would walk in with these on day one.

  • monitor automated machines
  • monitor conveyor belt
  • operate paper folding machine
  • perform test run
  • quality standards
  • supply machine

What stands in the way is 2 required skills the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 19 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A paperboard products assembler role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a tissue paper perforating and rewinding operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held operate paper folding machine working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held coordinate shipments of recycling materials management skills
  • already held maintain recycling records information skills
  • already held types of paper engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held prepare wood production reports information skills
  • already held monitor conveyor belt information skills

All 19 carried skills, including the 10 the paperboard products assembler role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you may need to learn

The 14 missing skills fall into 8 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.

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.
