    Don’t lie on your resume.

    As others have said, there’s better answers than lying. From telling them that you only included relevant experinece, took a sabbatical to work on some passion projects, inform them that you do not have disclose medical information, to saying fuck-off.

    The worst thing you can do is jeopardize a potential offer or your future employment standing by a flat out lie that’s verifiable by a standard background check.

      Lying on your resume is literally the game in a job market that wants five years experience in tools that have only existed for six months.
