1 Share of the candy machine operator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the aircraft groomer 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 candy machine operator role treats 3 of its required skills as things a aircraft groomer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • ensure public safety and security
  • lift heavy weights
  • perform cleaning duties

What stands in the way is 15 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 candy machine operator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a aircraft groomer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held perform cleaning duties handling and moving
  • already held follow verbal instructions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held follow written instructions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held lift heavy weights handling and moving
  • already held follow hygienic procedures during food processing assisting and caring
  • already held ensure public safety and security assisting and caring

All 7 carried skills, including the 3 the candy machine operator role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 28 missing skills fall into 10 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.

4 gaps that are knowledge rather than practice

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

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.
