1 Share of the tyre vulcaniser role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the tyre fitter 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

Why this move works

A tyre vulcaniser role treats 11 of its required skills as things a tyre fitter already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • adjust bag inside tyres
  • apply rubber patches
  • balance tyres
  • clamp tyre into mould
  • clean tyres
  • coat inside of tyres

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 tyre vulcaniser role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a tyre fitter background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held adjust bag inside tyres constructing
  • already held apply rubber patches handling and moving
  • already held balance tyres information skills
  • already held clamp tyre into mould handling and moving
  • already held coat inside of tyres constructing
  • already held sell tyres communication, collaboration and creativity

All 19 carried skills, including the 11 the tyre vulcaniser role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 7 missing skills fall into 5 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.

2 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

Knowledge gaps usually close through study. Practical skill gaps usually need something you can point at.

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.
