Hah! In my old job, I did a lot of interviewing and hiring. I saw people write extensively about all sorts of useless skills, ranging from hockey and poker (he even listed the tournaments he did well in) to being a good sibling.
I didn’t end up hiring any of them, but it worries me that out there somewhere, someone did.
We’ll I think it may be true since our company recruited a guy for a week trial but didn’t get the job, because he wastes his time with silly things rather than hard work.
B- Technology
1- Cracking Mobile Video Games to finish the game as fast as possible.
2- Whatsapping Friends before sleeping every night
3- Taking Photos of anything I like and posting it on facebook
Then you have the CVs which state as professional email address: a7lasarsoura….@hotmail.com, cute_angel_ammoura….@hotmail.com ….
I mean… Email Addresses are for FREE!!! If you can’t bring yourself to create a decent one, why should we hire you?
hahahaha HAAAAAAAAAAA
Thax Sareen, I laughed so hard Wallah
I worked in HR for about two years; in the recruitment & selection functions.
Blv me we have encountered many of these “re`sume`s”! I’ve seen wird things indeed!
2 quick ex.s if I may:
1- skipped 3rd grade (or 4th, not exactly sure but definitely an elementary level class) because I was marked as ADVANCED (caps in original, yes)
2- MY BMI index is: —- (4 an admin post!) – I guess he wanted to demonstrate he is not an addict or something, who knows!

I loved the languages on this CV, not sure if it is a common “label” in Lebanon but 1st time to hear it! Also, the hashtag was a good laugh too. Needed a few minutes until I deciphered “wel3aneh”
Well im no HR employee or even a business owner, but ive seen cv’s with language listings like:
English: I speak london very best
Arabic: I speak the lebanese derij accent
French: ca va?
computer skills: facebook & hotmail.
hard skills: they are hard, im not that good.
soft skills: it depends on the softness
once i was helping a friend fix his cv to apply as a waiter.
he listed his skills: abou raba bil telmee3. bekul rus bisir3a, w btarbish il zboun.
another said, i want to work at Mc or burger king as waiter. his description of his dream job as a waiter is making the burgers in the kitchen.
Hahahahaaaa!!! This is sooooo funny. Applies to many, not only in Lebanon. I just love your comics and as I’m catching up on what I have missed in the past couple of months I decided to finally write this to let you know that you are awesome, super talented and smart. Love you so much! All the best

Being a good sibling?!?! I can’t believe that!
Interviews were worse. I got everything from people bragging about how many office supplies they could steal to racist mall Santas (yes, really).

I am impressed with your driving/texting ability. Only 3 crashes in a month is pretty darn good
