46.1/ 100

1 Share of the botanist role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the beauty salon manager 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 botanist role treats 16 of its required skills as things a beauty salon manager already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • corporate social responsibility
  • develop recreation programmes
  • establish daily priorities
  • follow company standards
  • liaise with local authorities
  • manage budgets

What stands in the way is 9 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 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A botanist role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a beauty salon manager background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held manage recreational facility management skills
  • already held develop recreation programmes management skills
  • already held schedule recreation facilities management skills
  • already held promote recreation activities communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held recreation activities services
  • already held supervise daily information operations management skills

All 16 carried skills, including the 16 the botanist 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.

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.
