I would not list guitar playing on my resume unless I was prepared to entertain a crowd at my job interview.
Likewise I wouldn't list chess unless I was good enough to at least entertain a grand master for a few minutes.
- lupire 6y agoNonsense. Entertaining a crowd is nothing like entertaining a grand master. A 1400 USCF player could organize a chess tournament as a company social event. Guitar is a performance art. Mediocre people are entertaining. Chess (and skiing) mostly isn't.
- jameshart 6y agoI love this game. I wouldn’t put down ‘travel’ as a hobby if I weren’t prepared to take the interviewer on a quick day trip to Paris. I wouldn’t list ‘reading’ as a hobby unless I could do a professional audiobook-level reading of a book for the interviewer, including doing all the voices.
