    That’s cool but you can’t express it as “I work well under stress” because in these day and age tons of people write that no matter what. It doesn’t say what you think it says.

      As I said I never put it in my cv, because I know what it implies. In my country we have a similar thing with English proficiency, everyone would put ‘mid level English’ which actually means ‘barely able to order at a restaurant while pointing to things with your finger’.

        “What do you got?”
