1 Share of the riveter role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the anodising machine operator 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

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 18 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A riveter role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a anodising machine operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held apply preliminary treatment to workpieces handling and moving
already held manufacturing of steam generators engineering, manufacturing and construction
already held remove inadequate workpieces handling and moving
already held types of metal manufacturing processes engineering, manufacturing and construction
already held ferrous metal processing engineering, manufacturing and construction
already held remove processed workpiece handling and moving

All 18 carried skills, including the 8 the riveter role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 19 missing skills fall into 6 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.

8 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.
