1 Share of the container equipment assembler role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the industrial machinery 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 container equipment assembler role treats 8 of its required skills as things a industrial machinery assembler already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • assemble machines
  • consult technical resources
  • mechanics
  • perform machine maintenance
  • perform test run
  • resolve equipment malfunctions

What stands in the way is 4 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 19 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A container equipment assembler role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a industrial machinery assembler background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held perform pre-assembly quality checks information skills
  • already held assemble machines handling and moving
  • already held develop assembly instructions communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held perform maintenance on installed equipment constructing
  • already held secure working area assisting and caring
  • already held set up machine controls working with computers

All 19 carried skills, including the 8 the container equipment assembler role treats as required.

Table 3

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 17 missing skills fall into 5 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.
