[QUOTE="Arnox, post: 13717, member: 1"] I saw a very interesting take on YouTube a while ago that was brought to my mind again and I think it would make for some good topic fodder. Now, the first thing you may think of when you hear someone lied with their resume is, "Fuck that guy. What a dishonest piece of shit." And in some regards, I think that is indeed correct, however, if you KNOW that you're fully qualified for a position, and the only thing that's missing is you don't have some inane certificate or two to fully prove it, is lying about that kind of thing still wrong? Employers lie all the time in both the interview process and even the job listing. It's also pretty clear sometimes when some HR manager who has absolutely no idea what they're doing, writes up a bunch of absurd or even literally impossible requirements (for example, a listing says you need to have 30 years of JavaScript experience when the language has only been out for a grand total of 27 years) for a job. Bonus points if the pay for this position is below market standard. Ultimately, I don't really have an answer to this. I guess you gotta do whatever you think is right, but I am interested in hearing what other people's positions on this would be. [/QUOTE]
