1 Share of the paper pulp moulding operator role’s weighted skill requirement already met by the pulp control 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

Table 2 · What you already bring

Of the 27 skills that carry over, these are the ones fewest other occupations ask for. A paper pulp moulding operator role needs them, and most people applying for one will not have them already. This is the part of a pulp control operator background worth leading with.

Skill the target role also needs Area
  • already held operate pulp moulding machine working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held types of moulded fibres engineering, manufacturing and construction
  • already held feed pulp mixing vat working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held operate pulper working with machinery and specialised equipment
  • already held grade pulp information skills
  • already held concentrate pulp slurry information skills

All 27 carried skills, including the 11 the paper pulp moulding operator 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.
