Like 90% of the job interviews I've been to have asked me something along the lines of "rate yourself on a scale of 1-10 on these technologies," so maybe you don't want to see 4/5 stars in Python, but it does seem to be a pretty common wish.
- teddyh 5y agoThe interviewer asking the question and the person reading the résumé are not looking for the same information, and may often be entirely different people.
- paulgb 5y agoIMHO as an interviewer, when I see these: the rank-order is useful, so that if you put C++ first I might ask you a different question than if you put Python. But the absolute star ratings are just noise; most candidates just use an implicitly-ranked list which is a more concise way of communicating the same information. I've never asked a candidate to rank themselves on a skill out of 10, that seems like a low-signal way to filter for overconfident people.
