I listed a lot of things on my résumé.
And all people can see is the "no overtime enthusiast" and "learn as I need". And then reject me because of those.
There are over 700+ Chinese characters on my résumé, and all they see is those characters and decide to reject the sh*t out of me.
Is that normal? How on earth the society is working?

And my parents start accusing me that I shouldn't write like that. I said that is part of my characteristic. Then they start denying my characteristics.

Again, I don't like working overtime, and I tend to finish my work on time, thus I refuse to accept unlimited tasks that force me to work overtime. But I do work overtime if I can't finish my work on time. That's what I called "no overtime enthusiast".
The "learn as I need" is just like the word itself. I can't skilled on everything, but most times I can learn something new based on the current task, and then deliver a good enough result without delaying my progress.

I censored some information to prevent people trying to associate this account with my real identity.
@skyblond You know, you could try to reword it and still have the same meaning.
No overtime enthusiast you could translate to 'Delivers work on time. If assigned work isn't finished, will finish it after hours. Otherwise it is for the next day.'
And learn as you need you could translate to 'Quick learner. Will learn as work progresses and deliver results.'
I think it is the same, but more positively worded. Nuance is everything.
