Data on the critical and distinctive skills necessary for those working in the Documentary Production field from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Documentary Production majors need many skills, but most especially Active Listening. The revealed comparative advantage (RCA) shows that Documentary Production majors need more than the average amount of Coordination, Time Management, Negotiation, Quality Control Analysis, Persuasion, Management of Financial Resources, Active Listening, Monitoring, Management of Material Resources, Critical Thinking, Management of Personnel Resources, Technology Design, Systems Analysis, Equipment Selection, Speaking, Reading Comprehension, Active Learning, Judgment and Decision Making, Social Perceptiveness, Systems Evaluation, Complex Problem Solving, Writing, Learning Strategies, Instructing, Service Orientation, Operation Monitoring, Programming, Operations Analysis, Operation and Control, Troubleshooting, Mathematics, Repairing, Equipment Maintenance, Science, 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 Documentary Production 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 Coordination is very distinctive for majors, but the Active Listening, Reading Comprehension, Critical Thinking, Speaking, Coordination, Monitoring, Time Management, Writing, Judgment and Decision Making, Active Learning, Complex Problem Solving, Social Perceptiveness, Persuasion, Systems Analysis, Negotiation, Systems Evaluation, Management of Personnel Resources, Learning Strategies, Instructing, Service Orientation, Quality Control Analysis, Mathematics, Management of Financial Resources, Operation Monitoring, Management of Material Resources, Operations Analysis, Technology Design, Operation and Control, Troubleshooting, Programming, Equipment Selection, Equipment Maintenance, Repairing, Science, and Installation are the three most important skills for people in the field.
