Data on the critical and distinctive skills necessary for those working in the General Geology & Earch Science field from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. General Geology & Earch Science majors need many skills, but most especially Reading Comprehension. The revealed comparative advantage (RCA) shows that General Geology & Earch Science majors need more than the average amount of Science, Equipment Selection, Operation and Control, Repairing, Equipment Maintenance, Troubleshooting, Programming, Operation Monitoring, Quality Control Analysis, Operations Analysis, Mathematics, Systems Analysis, Reading Comprehension, Writing, Systems Evaluation, Technology Design, Critical Thinking, Complex Problem Solving, Speaking, Time Management, Judgment and Decision Making, Active Listening, Monitoring, Coordination, Learning Strategies, Persuasion, Management of Personnel Resources, Social Perceptiveness, Active Learning, Instructing, Management of Material Resources, Negotiation, Service Orientation, Management of Financial Resources, and Installation.
These two visualizations, one a radial chart and one a bar chart, show the same information, a rating of how necessary the following skills are for General Geology & Earch Science majors. Toggle between "value" and "RCA" to see the absolute rating of that skill (value) and the revealed comparative advantage (RCA), or how much greater or lesser that skill's rating is than the average. The longer the bar or the closer the line comes to the circumference of the circle, the more important that skill is. The importance of Science is very distinctive for majors, but the Reading Comprehension, Critical Thinking, Writing, Speaking, Active Listening, Science, Complex Problem Solving, Judgment and Decision Making, Monitoring, Time Management, Systems Analysis, Active Learning, Mathematics, Coordination, Systems Evaluation, Social Perceptiveness, Persuasion, Learning Strategies, Instructing, Operation Monitoring, Management of Personnel Resources, Service Orientation, Quality Control Analysis, Operations Analysis, Negotiation, Operation and Control, Troubleshooting, Management of Material Resources, Management of Financial Resources, Programming, Technology Design, Equipment Selection, Repairing, Equipment Maintenance, and Installation are the three most important skills for people in the field.
