1 Share of the employer branding manager role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the movie distributor 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 employer branding manager role treats 2 of its required skills as things a movie distributor already does. These are the ones it depends on most.

  • apply social media marketing
  • brand marketing techniques

What stands in the way is 11 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 4 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A employer branding manager role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a movie distributor background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held brand marketing techniques business, administration and law
  • already held advise on public relations communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held apply social media marketing communication, collaboration and creativity
  • already held content marketing strategy business, administration and law

All 4 carried skills, including the 2 the employer branding manager role treats as required.

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.
