50.9/ 100

1 Share of the foam rubber mixer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the coagulation 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.

Why

Why this move works

A foam rubber mixer role treats 5 of its required skills as things a coagulation operator already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • analyse latex samples
  • mix ingredients with latex
  • operate latex transfer pump
  • process latex mixtures
  • stir rubber cement mixture

What stands in the way is 4 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 6 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A foam rubber mixer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a coagulation operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held analyse latex samples information skills
  • already held mix ingredients with latex handling and moving
  • already held operate latex transfer pump working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held process latex mixtures working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held stir rubber cement mixture working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held mechanics engineering, manufacturing and construction

All 6 carried skills, including the 5 the foam rubber mixer role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 12 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.

6 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.
