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