    The reason people lie is simple. If you tell the truth on your resume most employers will ignore and toss out your resume. Yet, if you exaggerate and embellish your experience and capabilities you will be hired on the spot with higher pay. It's really not that surprising.

      I always had an honest resume and I hardly got any interviews eventhough I was well qualified. Some lady I know always got interviews and the job, but she got fired fast too. She did not have the skills to do the job, but excelled at embellishing her resume. She must know the interview game very well also.
      Meanwhile, I could do the jobs she got at least 10 times faster with my eyes closed, but would never get an interview.

    It's not doubt. Employers expect the impossible in job ads. They're expecting applicants to lie. Remember the 10 years experience in 10 programming languages, and a college degree at 25 years old?
    These guys need to go read on indeed a bit to see the issue.

    I've lied on my resume about my education. I have an associates degree and I changed my degree to a bachelor's. It got me the job I was looking for. I'm an artist applied for a graphic design job and it's hard to get a job as an artist without a bachelor's. My voice of doubt was that I know I have the skills and experience and im more well rounded than a person who just graduated college and I felt it was unfair I was looked over because I didn't stay in school to get my bachelor's. I got the job and it's funny because I was applying to this job for a while when my resume had the associates degree and when I changed it to a bachelor's they finally called me in for an interview. So I know lying was wrong and i felt really bad but I wanted this job so I did what I felt i had to do.

      @@mathematician1234 I can. When they ask you "do you like working in a team?" they expect the answer to be yes. If you don't like it you will not find a job. So you at least need to say "I got experience working in a team and I was able to do a great job" (that's usually true even if you don't like working in a team). Another more specific to my field example... In the software development field HR usually are the first one to look for you and they don't know programming so they use a bunch of keywords to know if you are what they want... Maybe you know a framework that works like the one they want... Usually if you need a tecnology you will lean it anyway on the field and if you used something similar you can be sure you can learn it in a day, in any case the idea is to just give a look on Google and stackoverflow and if it's something similar to something you already know if they ask you "Do you know x?" you can say "I will be able to handle x fine".
      Both are not lies but they are not answering the real question. That's what I can stretching the truth.

    The purpose of a resume is to get an interview for a job you believe you are qualified for. If you accomplish that, your resume is good. If you are 100% honest and don't get an interview, time and resources are wasted on all sides. Now, if you apply for jobs you aren't qualified for... that's another thing altogether.
