was writing a resume Hopina a job, I was writing a resume. And there was a question that asks me to score a value of my life so far, from 0 to 10. Well cuz the job looked very nice, I decided to answer that arrogant and rude question. But what would be the best answer? Do they want someone with very high confidence? or do they want someone who is good at self-reflection? I know the score itself is not important and the reason I write with the score matters, but the question itself made me to overthink (and to be displease) so I quit to write it.

Completing an application form

While looking for a job, I was filling in a application form in which there was a question that asked me to rate my life so far, from 0 to 10. 


Well, because the job looked very nice, I decided to answer that arrogant and rude question.

But what would be the best answer? Do they want someone with very high confidence? Or do they want someone who is good at self-reflection?

I know the score itself is not important and the reason for the score matters more, but the question itself made me to overthink (and get annoyed) so I quit completing the form.

 

<em>That's a tough question.  I've never seen that on an application form for a job in Britain.  It's very general.  Perhaps, I would write something like 6 or 7 to indicate that my life is heading in the right direction, but that there is more to do in order to improve the score (like get this job!).</em>
