Making Up Your Cv
« on: May 17, 2006, 05:13 PM »

Born again Christian

Is it OK to lie on your CV, i.e make up experiences you don't have to get a job
If not why wouldn't you
And if you will, isn't it again your believe ?

@ebonyman
why did you lol,

don't people tell lies to get into the spiritual work force?

Anyway, as a born again Christian, which you claim, No, i do not advice you to lie about your professional experience. If you are a fresh grad looking for work, and all the work adverts shout "3-5 year work experience", and oh, its so painful because you'll be thinking, "ive not even gotten "1-month experience", you are talking of 5yrs!!!, If you tell lies on your CV and your to-be employers find out the interview, well, ure screwed. If they employ you and find out later, still you are screwed. If you escape the eye of the needle, youve sinned against God and yourself, and repentance is not just sorry God, u would have to go back to your employers and say, sorry, boss, ive got no experience, then ull be given the boot(which would be more painful after you have gotten the job). Sad Sad Sad

If youve got no work experience, emphasize your academic qualifications, your skills, past achievements, industry-needed strengths and "what you can contribute" to the company, ofcourse, meaning youve gotta have done your homework to know what the company is all about etc, , on your cv.

Your getting an interview(in the first place) is definitely how you write/what you detail on your CV. Then the other major part is during the interview, how you present yourself, you should be confident. I could help you with a heavy CV. give me a shout in my mailbox(check ma profile)

@ Kimba


Thanks very much.
And no , I didn't lie on my CV. I don't have to, I have more than enough experience.

I just threw the question out. Thanks for your help any way.
