Lying on your resume is a time-honored tradition. I mean, sure, if they catch you, you might get fired . . . unless, as Hollywood has taught us, you come up with a genius marketing scheme to save the company. Hahaha!!According to a new survey:- More than two-thirds of people swear they've never lied on their resume.- 15% of people say they have lied on a resume- 16% say they've "bent the truth."- People between 23 and 39 are the most likely to have lied on their resume- Men are 6% more likely to lie than womenOf the people who HAVE lied or "bent the truth:- 79% say they were never caught- 14% were caught but nothing happened to them- 7% say there were consequences for lying.In other words, you've got a 93% chance of a resume lie NOT backfiring on you.(Zippia)
