Let’s say you go to a website and see 80% SEO, 90% design (WTF does 90% design even mean?) and 70% HTML. This stupid measurement makes no sense, and doesn’t show or prove anything. 98% of WordPress? Really? So this person knows ALL OF THE THINGS? and 99% Divi? Is this person better than the company with the first graph? I personally think they’re both crap.)Īt best, it’s just a personal projection of how each skill compares against each other.Īgain, without any objective scale, this is meaningless.Įven the totally arbitrary scale of “I can do what I want with this tool” is not an accurate measurement of proficiency.Įveryone’s level of “proficiency” is different. (Why even list PHP? 59% is a very specific number, too. It’s an arbitrary scale of what the person thinks is warlock lvl 69. This stupid bar graph does not mean anything. This is a problem because… A unit on a graph should mean something. There’s no definitive measurement of what 100% means. This is probably the biggest problem I have of this ridiculous practice. Here’s why I think this is a STOOPID idea. I’ve seen people’s resume’s with this in it. I’ve seen many websites with this in their “About” pages. Seriously WTF is the point of using bar graphs to show skill? What is the missing 15% of graphic design supposed to mean? “I can design. What about the 20% of the SEO that’s missing? “I can get you to the front page, but not to the top?” “I know a little bit, but not enough.?” What does the 10% of the missing responsive design mean? Only 90% of the websites are responsive? Can edit only 90% of the websites to be responsive? Please tell me what the missing 10% on the WordPress bar means… Does it mean this person can only finish up to 90% of all WordPress projects? or knows 90% of all the WP functions? If a position was closed today, Exit Price is used in place of Last Price.Tell me if you’ve seen something like this before: If a position was opened today, Entry Price is used in place of Previous Price for that transaction.
