One Millennial's Experience of a Lifetime.

[hooplala]

Ok seriously, all jokes aside (haha)... how prevalent is lying on resumes/CVs?  If I've been telling the truth like a naive fool all these years, while everyone else has been getting sweet gigs, I am going to be pretty severely pissed at everyone I know personally.

This doesn't really happen all that often, does it?

It's how I got where I am today.

Dead serious.

...shit.

Let's be clear here, there's making up shit to pad out your experience and tailor it to the post you're applying for and there's saying you've flown fighter jets. If you know you can do something, there's no harm in saying you've done a lot more of it than you really have.
