metal drawing machine operatortowire weaving machine operator
A metal drawing machine operator already meets 75% of what the wire weaving machine operator role asks for. The move turns on 4 required skills not yet in the profile.
This move: 31.2 of 100 · moderate
1 Share of the wire weaving machine operator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the metal drawing machine operator 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 · What you already bring
Of the 28 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A wire weaving machine operator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a metal drawing machine operator background worth leading with.
- already held tend wire drawing machine working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held safely handle metal wire under tension handling and moving
- already held metal drawing processes engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held dies engineering, manufacturing and construction
- already held monitor moving workpiece in a machine working with machinery and specialised equipment
- already held manufacture of small metal parts engineering, manufacturing and construction
All 28 carried skills, including the 12 the wire weaving machine operator role treats as required.
Table 3 · What you would need to learn
The 9 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.
- required, not held types of weave for wire mesh required
- optional, not held manufacturing of light metal packaging optional
- required, not held supply machine with appropriate tools required
- optional, not held apply preliminary treatment to workpieces optional
- required, not held tend wire weaving machine required
- optional, not held ensure correct metal temperature optional
- required, not held types of wire mesh required
- optional, not held maintain mechanical equipment optional
- optional, not held inspect quality of products optional
Table 4 · Where to start
The 3 entries a wire weaving machine operator role is least likely to hire without. The ordering is computed from the skill data, not from what pays.
- 01 tend wire weaving machine skill · occupation specific
- 02 types of weave for wire mesh knowledge · occupation specific
- 03 types of wire mesh knowledge · occupation specific
Each entry opens a course search for that skill. Career Overlap earns nothing from these links.

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.
