1 Share of the automotive brake technician role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the tyre vulcaniser 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 automotive brake technician role treats 2 of its required skills as things a tyre vulcaniser already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • mechanics
  • wear appropriate protective gear

What stands in the way is 7 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 7 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A automotive brake technician role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a tyre vulcaniser background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held rebuff tyre handling and moving
  • already held prepare tyres for vulcanization working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held inspect repaired tyres information skills
  • already held inspect worn tyres information skills
  • already held replace tyres working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held wear appropriate protective gear assisting and caring

All 7 carried skills, including the 2 the automotive brake technician role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 15 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.

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.
