1 Share of the integration engineer role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the ICT system integration consultant 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 integration engineer role treats 7 of its required skills as things a ICT system integration consultant already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • ICT project management methodologies
  • define integration strategy
  • hardware components suppliers
  • integrate system components
  • inter-organisational middleware system
  • software components suppliers

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 21 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A integration engineer role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a ICT system integration consultant background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held define integration strategy communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held inter-organisational middleware system information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held software components suppliers information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held hardware components suppliers business, administration and law
  • already held ICT system integration information and communication technologies (icts)
  • already held model based system engineering engineering, manufacturing and construction

All 21 carried skills, including the 7 the integration engineer role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 66 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.

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.
