1 Share of the employment programme coordinator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the labour relations officer 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 employment programme coordinator role treats 3 of its required skills as things a labour relations officer already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • employment law
  • government policy implementation
  • maintain relations with local representatives

What stands in the way is 8 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 10 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A employment programme coordinator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a labour relations officer background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held protect employee rights communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held personnel management business, administration and law
  • already held gather feedback from employees information skills
  • already held advise on government policy compliance communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held maintain relations with local representatives communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held manage government policy implementation management skills

All 10 carried skills, including the 3 the employment programme coordinator role treats as required.

Table 3 · What you would need to learn

The 17 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.

Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
