Topic | If I lie about a job on a resume, what are the chances they'll check? |

Don't pay attention to the years of experience or skill sets on a job posting, if it's something you want to do and you know things that are in the ballpark then you'll probably have a decent chance It depends. The problem with online applications is that many of them are there as filters. For example, for the job Im applying for currently, my bosses (who are currently my bosses, and would also be my boss more of I get the job) told me to basically say Im the best at what I do for the online application. And to basically put all the requirements I needed onto the application. Almost word for word. Saying that the hardest part of getting the job was getting past the online application. And that I basically had the job once past that. The reason that you want to say your the best is because youre usually going up against others who will say the same thing. So, I think it more of less depends. But thats also one of the reasons I hate the online application process. You normally have to lie or embellish just to get a chance to actually apply... Unless its asking stuff you actually have done. Which doesnt always work for younger people. Or people moving to a new career field... --- Official King of Kings Switch FC: 7216-4417-4511 Add Me because I'll probably add you. I'm probably the LinkPizza you'll see around. ...
