According to a
poll by CareerBuilder.com,
49% of hiring managers
have uncovered a lie on a resume.
What types of lies?
38% exaggerated job responsibilities
18% hyped up skills
and
10% claimed academic degrees
they hadn’t earned.
With dismissals more and more challenging
(what with the possibilities of lawsuits),
managers are really looking into
candidate qualifications.
Plus the work world is very small.
Don’t lie on your resume.
Odds are, you’ll get caught.
