I mean I've never put it in my resume and I work better in a healthy environment, but under stressful and chaotic circumstances I perform much much better than most.

My secret: I'm always super anxious, you can throw all the chaos you want my way and it'll barely move the stress-o-meter needle a bit.

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'.

"Yeah man, I'm fluent, says so on my CV!"

"But it just says 'Fluent'. Fluent in what?"

"What do you got?"
