Not just on resumes, many people exaggerate in their profiles, particularly on LinkedIn.

I don't lie also is not bad as long as you can get the work done, but there is always some sort of risk because some companies really check the background not a lot maybe 1/10 companies do a quick check but if that gives you a change to get the job sure, personally I don't like to do that.

 

[Mister Ghost]

Actually, it's not so bad. He doesn't shed OR use my conditioner!

But nicks your razors though.

 

[PetraAnn]

But nicks your razors though.

Nope, he hates the ones I use. If anyone nicks a razor, it's me nicking his. He orders from one of those monthly razor clubs and they're fantastic.

A friend just got an interview, and he tells me his resume has some lies about the job experience.
This got me thinking about honesty and being true.

Nope

 

[greenrobot]

let me go a bit deeper
as someone who has worked in HR
If we catch you lying on your CV
there is a big likelihood you will be fired even if you been employed for years.

I'm afraid that's not even the worst part. In a narrow field, something like this can get a person blacklisted by HR.

 

[Futsovereign]

No I’d rather get the job on merit

 

[andyframpton]

When I worked for NASA there was lots of people lying on their CV.
The same when I was working for the Bank of England.
When I was playing for Liverpool as their top striker it didn’t matter.
Luckily when I was working for the United Nations there was not that many.
