Advicenators as an interest?


Question Posted Thursday March 25 2010, 3:33 pm

When you apply for a job/college/anything, and they ask you your interests, does advicenators count? Could i say im an advice columnist, and maybe show off my average rating?

What do you think? :)

Actually, I don't see why it's a bad idea...

If the qualities you show on this site (being helpful, insightful, etc) are required for your job, then why now show it?

You don't have to include the site name, perhaps say "Advice columnist, answered black questions" and describe what you do on the site.

Hope that helps :)

Terrible idea. Absolutely terrible. Online forums are not to be shown off in real life. No one really cares all that much that you're on this website, and if nothing else you don't want to submit a website with as much random immaturity and posts from teenagers with love and sex issues as possible.

When applying for anything, you want to think "professional"

Advicenators is the exact opposite. Moreover, the advice given here does not actually represent much of anything official. If you were a part of a professional psychiatric forum (which doesn't exist, so far as I know) and were licensed to provide advice and help to those in need, it might then be helpful to include depending on its relevance to what you were applying for.

This though? Questions about teenaged love and awkward sex which show up on every page? Questions about broken homes and screwed up families from kids with few other places to turn? This is not professional. It's not something you should advertise. Advicenators is here to provide what little help it can to people who need to ask for feedback from strangers. It's a social construct, not a professional organization, and as such it would not be suitable to impress another professional organization.
