Years ago my company fired a greatly beloved senior vice president for a beyond stupid lie on his resume (which became his official company bio, which the press office would send out before he appeared on a panel, at a conference, a fireside chat, etc.)
Wouldn’t you know it- if you claim to have graduated from Wharton, when what you actually did was attend their three day seminar on “Negotiating Strategies”, at some point, someone who attended that seminar is going to think “hmmm… something’s not right here”.
Kids- don’t lie. Not worth it.
