They WILL call your past employers. They WILL verify that degree. They WILL Google your anthroponym They WILL look you up on LinkedIn (and Facebook, and Twitter for that matter). They WILL complete a background check.Do not think for one second that not being completely truthful on your resume will not come back to bite you. It may not be before the job offeror even before you start the position. But when the truth does finally come out, youll lose that great new joband then youll have being fired in your career history to deal with too.
