for my fellow office job havers: what are the dos and don’ts of lying on your resume? (hexbear.net)

everyone always says lie on your resume, and i agree that there’s no reason not to. i’ve never done it before though so i want to know what i can and can’t get away with.

for example, if i’ve been out of work since january, can i just lie and say i’m still employed by the company i quit working at in january and make it look like i don’t have an 8-month gap on my resume? or is the HR person at the place i’m applying going to be able to figure out that’s a lie?

also please give tips on what are some good lies to add, how to punch up normal looking resume shit, etc

Nope. My parents weren't perfect, but they weren't bad in that kind of way.
