1 Share of the motor vehicle parts assembler role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the electromechanical equipment assembler 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 motor vehicle parts assembler role treats 16 of its required skills as things a electromechanical equipment assembler already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • align components
  • apply health and safety standards
  • assemble electrical components
  • assemble electronic units
  • electricity
  • electromechanics

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

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 25 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A motor vehicle parts assembler role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a electromechanical equipment assembler background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held assemble electronic units handling and moving
  • already held assemble electrical components handling and moving
  • already held use power tools handling and moving
  • already held apply soldering techniques constructing
  • already held operate lifting equipment working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held electrical wiring plans engineering, manufacturing and construction

All 25 carried skills, including the 16 the motor vehicle parts assembler role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 15 missing skills fall into 8 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.
