1 Share of the deep-sea fishery worker role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the fisheries boatman 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 deep-sea fishery worker role treats 14 of its required skills as things a fisheries boatman already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

code of Conduct for Responsible Fisheries
deterioration of fish products
fisheries legislation
fishing gear
handle fish products
international regulations for preventing collisions at sea

What stands in the way is 12 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 24 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A deep-sea fishery worker role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a fisheries boatman background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held deterioration of fish products agriculture, forestry, fisheries and veterinary
already held handle fish products handling and moving
already held support vessel manoeuvres working with machinery and specialised equipment
already held maintain safe navigation watches working with machinery and specialised equipment
already held operate ship rescue machinery working with machinery and specialised equipment
already held communicate using the global maritime distress and safety system working with machinery and specialised equipment

All 24 carried skills, including the 14 the deep-sea fishery worker role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 37 missing skills fall into 9 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.

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.
