Knowledge: what you understand
Knowledge is understanding developed through education, training, and experience. Examples include customer service principles, mathematics, administration, or a technical field.
Skills: what you have learned to do
Skills are capabilities developed through learning and practice. Active listening, writing, coordination, and critical thinking may appear in many different occupations.
Abilities: capacities used in the work
Abilities include capacities such as oral comprehension, written expression, and reasoning. Their importance and required level differ across occupations.
Use the comparison to ask better questions
An occupation profile is a useful starting point, but your experience is individual. Ask where you have used a capability, how recently, at what level, and what evidence you could provide.
Then investigate the target occupation’s requirements. Similar assets do not remove a need for further training, certification, licensing, or experience.
