In one CS job application in college I wrote in the list of skills "can write good prose". By this I meant both that I knew English, which was not obvious at that time and place, and that I can structure text logically, e.g. for documentation.

The interviewer kept mocking it and asking what did I mean by prose and whether I can also write in rhymes if needed, and ended up not making an offer. Twenty years later, good writing is still the most important skill in my career and the one that I rely on most often.
