I asked this question earlier, but I can't seem to get a satisfactory answer. So I wil ask in another way.
If you are specialised in a certain field, and all of a sudden, you are transffered to a new field, of which you have no prior experience and training, how much can you catch up in the field in a short time, eg 6 months.
For example, if you are specialised in IT and you have no prior experience in car servicing, can you take up the job or not? Can you, with on the job training, learn to service a car well in only 6 months?
Likewise, with no prior experience, can you take up a vocation to assist a biochemist within 6 months?
I have heard many people say that school doesn't teach you everything, you have to learn a lot on your own. However, can you learn anything essential if you have no prior training and within a short time?
