Small but significant experiences (personal projects, ...). The more abstract the better (nth HTML portfolio: meh, custom regular expression engine: yeah)
Engagement of some sort in a dev-related community
Consistency in what you look. Don't put every tool that you ever did a tutorial about, choose what you really used and like. It won't close more doors than a confused message of "master of none". I hate nothing more than an junior that writes they master ASM, C++ and Python
Insider jokes and references. I've never regretted to interview someone that made his CV using LaTeX or that puts an IT-related easter egg. Like if you put "Brainfuck" in the languages you know it's a pretty good sign
If you really want to use a scale, define the scale somewhere. I like the way Google does that during the interviews. They'll ask you to rank yourself from 0 to 10 on several skills relatives to the job (Python, TCP/IP, etc) but they will explain you the scale. While I don't remember it exactly each number basically it's something like:
0 — don't know at all
5 — you're the person everybody in the company goes to see if they have questions about it
10 — you've invented the damn thing
Even if you don't use the scale, you can describe your skill level in relationship to others. Like:
Python — Beginners refer to me
JavaScript — Teaching it at university
etc
But more than anything what matters is proofs. You want to communicate JavaScript experience? Put JavaScript experience in your job descriptions, possibly with links and references.
(Also it's forbidden to reveal the Google hiring process publicly so I guess that Google's never going to hire me, oh nooooo)
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
If you are a beginner, I'm going to look for
