I put Haskell as last language on my CV, despite it being the language I'm most comfortable with and genuinely like, just because I don't want to be "that" guy
EDIT: I'll never put TI-84+ calculator ASM on my CV, but damn, I'm proud I knew it in secondary school
Yeah, it was fun until it was a huge project. I even was tutor in a lecture about Haskell and SQL once even though I hated SQL. Now I tell people in my job interviews what a great SQL tutor I was
When I last had to job hunt (2016) - I just jinxed it didn’t I? - I was complimented by interviewers for separately listing “Classroom experience” and “Professional experience”
I think you get a lot of points for a resume that says “I may or may not be the best fit for you, and that’s ok. Here’s accurate information, so you can make that determination for yourself. I trust you.”

I did my bachelor thesis in Haskell. Never used it again. Hopefully never will. Still on my CV.

We fight on the same team. That's what's the most important

Our hr recently sent us a list of people who were interested in a position we requested. So on behalf of all of us: fuck you with a thorny stick.
