verbal, non verbal abilities, cases for assessment of decision making abilities,
work under pressure, etc. Transferable skills assessment when working with
emigrants and immigrants should be in accordance with the market requirements
and the future professional community and environment characteristics. The BD –
BG counsellor should take into account the organisation the client has been
working for until now, what the transferable skills necessary for a certain job
position were and whether they are relevant to the new professional situation or
whether the client needs to acquire new employability skills. It is very important for
the BD – BG counsellor to define what the client understands in regard with
employability skills – for example how the client understands teamwork or whether
their culture allows asking for support in a difficult situation. Transferable skills
assessment will define the work approach with the client in order to harmonize the
understanding of the set of characteristics and qualities included in a given
transferable skill and the new cultural and professional environment.
The table below is an example for a list of skills which the client can self-assess or
that can be given to a friend, former employer or colleague. Use the table to
complete the list of your qualities with the ones you want to develop as well as with
the relevant goals and actions.
