A artillery officer already meets 78% of what the infantry soldier role asks for. The move turns on 1 required skill not yet in the profile.
78%
21.7/ 100
1 Share of the infantry soldier role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the artillery officer 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 this move works
A infantry soldier role treats 11 of its required skills as things a artillery officer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- camouflage
- ensure compliance with types of weapons
- ensure public safety and security
- execute working instructions
- handle surveillance equipment
- identify security threats
What stands in the way is 1 required skill the profile does not yet cover. Table 3 groups them; Table 4 says which to take first.
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 22 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A infantry soldier role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a artillery officer background worth leading with.
- already held perform covert investigations information skills
- already held operate armoured fighting vehicles working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held camouflage engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held military drill services
- already held perform military operations assisting and caring
- already held military combat techniques services
All 22 carried skills, including the 11 the infantry soldier role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 10 missing skills fall into 4 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.
- required, not held provide humanitarian aid required
- optional, not held control crowd optional
- optional, not held detain offenders optional
- optional, not held provide first aid optional
- optional, not held respond to enquiries optional
- optional, not held restrain individuals optional
- optional, not held assist in ship maintenance optional
- optional, not held execute vehicle maintenance optional

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.
