A glass engraver already meets 63% of what the jewellery engraver role asks for. Every required skill of the target role is already in the profile.
63%
41.7/ 100
1 Share of the jewellery engraver role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the glass engraver 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 jewellery engraver role treats 13 of its required skills as things a glass engraver already does. These are the ones it depends on most.
- clean engraved areas
- determine quality of engraving
- engrave patterns
- engraving technologies
- ensure accurate engravings
- inspect etched work
Table 2 · What you already bring
Of the 16 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A jewellery engraver role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a glass engraver background worth leading with.
- already held ensure accurate engravings working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held inspect etched work information skills
- already held select engraving templates handling and moving
- already held verify engraving accuracy information skills
- already held compute engraving dimensions information skills
- already held handle etching chemicals constructing
All 16 carried skills, including the 13 the jewellery engraver role treats as required.

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.
