I hate job application forms

[ewt]

"Please give us examples of work you are proud of, where you performed highly."

This is difficult when I feel I've been, at best, muddling through for most of my life.

I'll think on that and fill it out later when I send the application form in (must be done by 17.00 today).

The question I really hate is "tell us what your worst points are" or however they phrase it.

Actually, I read that as 'mudding' and was about to say that I managed to sell my MUD addiction as "staff member of international distributed programming and social networking project".

Surely you can sell them your music lessons.

I agree - music lessons.

I am always tempted to write AM I NOT STILL ALIVE? in that section.

I'm curious, do you remember what you wrote for this in the end? I just googled the phrase for help whilst filling out an application form myself.

(PS, was the application for AnyQuestionAnswered by any chance? I have that exact phrase on the application in front of me.)
