<p>my dad works in a factory, should i put him as a semi-skilled laborer or unskilled laborer? or other?</p>
<p>I think they ask because your family background might indicate you’ve had to overcome a lot to get to where you are today, and/or whether you’re the first in your family to attend college, which is usually beneficial to your chances. But in most cases, I’d say choose ‘Other’.</p>
<p>Thank you!</p>
