Lying on your resume or lying to get a job, anyone done it before?

Does a DUI completely disqualify you from government jobs??? I've never gotten a real answer from anybody on that shyt
Not completely but it depends how long ago was the conviction.

the ends justify the means. do whatever you gotta do to do what you gotta do and if lying is included than so be it.

All the time, I tell a friend to give them my number, and if they call (which some have in the passed) I give him glowing remarks(always on time, hard worker, etc). For myself, I realized that no one will question it, if you list you went to a college around where you live (Columbia for me). I also like to mention I interned for Apple and joined the Peace Corp for 5 years. Always bring up conversation; "So how was it? I hear its pretty rough"...works like a charm.

I do it all the time the trick is , your. Story has to stand up to a background check.
Ex: I was fired from a company I used to work for. All I did there was data entry.
I tell people in my interviews that I quit and that I was responsible for all types of financials.
When they call to confirm, my companies reference policy is that they are only allowed to confirm that you worked there and what position.
They can't give any opinions on performance or anything else. They do this to avoid litigation. So the places I interview for have to take my word on the rest of the details.

This. Learned access in HS and hated it. Having worked for some pretty big companies, though, they all had proprietary solutions so I never even got to use Access.

:yeshrug:Whatever it takes. Of course I never made a habit of lying about some shyt (which undoubtedly cost me some opportunities) but man, any little experience
has to be flipped into a positive that you can offer to the employer. If you gotta reach a bit, make that shyt happen. Google means whatever you aren't familiar with, you
can catch the fukk up between the first call back and the start date.

No excuses. Getting a job requires its own skills. I'm trying to transition into a career now so I gotta spin bigger-league tales:russ:
You tryna live up to ur name, I dig it :salute:

Yep, my 1st driving job. I lied and said I had experience driving a 26ft truck. Had my brother lie as my reference and everything.

1st day went cool but when I returned to park the truck I hit the truck parked next to me while backing.

I quit and never returned. A job like that can get you killed if you really don't k,ow what you doing.

GO THROUGH a temp agency. They get paid for getting you hired so they'll help you fake the fukk out a resume. I aalmost got a warehouse job with mandatory over time but apparently Im a "violent felon" so they won't touch me. I doont like cacs anyway. Enjoyed cussing them out And punking them before cars fired me from McDonald.

Best believe all my nikkas were getting bags stuffed with nuggets, fries, free drinks, fukk these cac corporations
