Map Transferable Skills to Evidence for a Career Change and Name the Gaps

Move from what you have done to what a new field asks for. You get a table that labels each skill DIRECT, TRANSFERABLE or GAP, with your own words as evidence and a small honest next step for gaps.

Your prompt

Map my transferable skills from my past work to a new career. Use only the facts I give and invent nothing.

Work I have done (tasks, not only job titles): {{past_work}}
Role I want to move into: {{target_role}}
What that role asks for (pasted from a job ad or job profile): {{target_requirements}}

First, turn my past work into a list of skills, each tied to a quoted note from me. Then build a table: Target requirement | My evidence (quoted) | Match | Plain wording for the new field | Honest gap or next step. Match must be DIRECT (same task, same kind of setting), TRANSFERABLE (a similar skill in a different setting; explain in one sentence why it carries over) or GAP (no evidence given).
Translate my old field's jargon into the new field's terms only where the meaning is the same, and flag any doubtful translation. For each gap, suggest one small real way to build or show the skill, such as a short course, volunteering or a practice project, without naming providers or promising outcomes. Ask me up to four questions if my notes are too thin. End with my three strongest points and three biggest gaps.

Example result

Example inputs: teaching assistant (ran small reading groups, wrote weekly progress notes for teachers); target: learning and development assistant; asks for short training sessions, using a learning platform, clear written guides. Illustrative example; not tested on the listed platform. Deliver short training sessions | 'ran small reading groups' | TRANSFERABLE: small-group teaching carries over, though the learners differ | 'Led small-group sessions' | Any true experience with adult learners. Use a learning platform | NO EVIDENCE GIVEN | GAP | none | Try a free practice course, if one is open to you. Write clear guides | 'wrote weekly progress notes for teachers' | TRANSFERABLE | 'Wrote weekly written updates for colleagues' | A short how-to guide as a sample, if you choose. Strongest: small-group teaching, writing. Biggest gap: the learning platform.

Illustrative example; not tested on the listed platform. Example inputs are stated in the preview. No platform test or measured performance is claimed.

Tips & limitations

Check the result: 1. Each quoted piece of evidence is from your own notes. 2. TRANSFERABLE items have a reason you could explain in an interview. 3. Gap steps are ones you could actually do, and none promises a job. Example output is illustrative; independently verify calculations, dates, quotations and actions relevant to your task.
