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 Carpenters 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 Repairing is very distinctive for majors, but the Coordination, Speaking, Active Listening, Critical Thinking, Reading Comprehension, Monitoring, Time Management, Management of Personnel Resources, Judgment and Decision Making, Complex Problem Solving, Social Perceptiveness, Active Learning, Quality Control Analysis, Operation Monitoring, Instructing, Mathematics, Operation and Control, Service Orientation, Persuasion, Writing, Learning Strategies, Negotiation, Systems Analysis, Systems Evaluation, Equipment Selection, Troubleshooting, Repairing, Equipment Maintenance, Operations Analysis, Management of Material Resources, Management of Financial Resources, Technology Design, Installation, Science, and Programming are the three most important skills for people in the field.
