Zone 2: Some Preparation Needed

Some preparation. Usually a high school diploma, some previous work-related skill or experience, and a few months to a year of training with experienced workers.

Job Zone is O*NET's rating of how much education, experience and training an occupation typically needs — a property of the work, not of anyone doing it.

RIASEC (Holland) interests on O*NET's 0–7 scale: what the work draws on, not what any individual prefers. Hover a row for what each dimension means.

Job Zone and interest data are borrowed from Dispatchers, Except Police, Fire, and Ambulance (43-5032.00): in the official ESCO–O*NET crosswalk, a broader O*NET occupation that includes this one, and the best-ranked match that has them. ESCO doesn't publish them directly.
