This move: 38.5 of 100 · moderate

1 Share of the physiologist role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the immunologist 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.

Table 2

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 53 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A physiologist role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a immunologist background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area

already held clinical immunopathology health and welfare
already held develop patient treatment strategies assisting and caring
already held neoplasia health and welfare
already held assist in clinical trials communication, collaboration and creativity
already held develop pharmaceutical drugs management skills
already held perform lectures communication, collaboration and creativity

All 53 carried skills, including the 37 the physiologist role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 30 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.

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.
