Also, if you think other applicants aren't lying, you are wrong. I have been on the other end of hiring and honestly I have started to expect it. So many applicants are downright SUPER sneaky.

My favorite one. Before coming to a job I worked a temp job at a great employer (like Microsoft). But I worked for the temp agency. When I was hiring after I got a full time job, I found someone put on their resume that they had their own business. As a consultant. Listed under the "clients" she had the temporary job that I had worked on. Claiming to have been a consultant to this great employer (like Microsoft) and leaving the temp agency out of it entirely.

The only reason I could have figured that out was that I had worked on the project myself. And new the time period and particulars.

Wow.
